How to tie an extended two-strand Matthew Walker knot...

Cyber Skull beads used with a few shown example paracord lanyard, fob, and zipper pull projects, were courtesy of Schmuckatelli Co. The Copper Alox Lumberjack is from SwissBianco, and the Maratac AAA LED Flashlight came from County Comm, all of those I received last year.

I uploaded a video tutorial to YouTube for tying an extended two-strand Matthew Walker knot, knot #777 in 'The Ashley Book of Knots', and is also diagrammed in 'The Book of Decorative Knots' by Peter Owen. 


For EDC(everyday carry) items like knives, multitools, flashlights, keychains, and other gadgets, gizmos, and gear, I usually just add a few extra turns when lengthening the knot, as any more than that makes it a bit difficult to tighten up properly, but you can still do it with some patience to get the coiled look just right...
