Apples and Opinels

I had a leftover strand of twisted cotton cord and used it to tie a lanyard with a two-strand four bight gaucho knot with the ends frayed.  Shown attached to a No. 6 Opinel with a walnut handle.

It can be difficult to keep the soft cotton from wanting to untwist when tightening, so you have to pay attention to it or the knot won't look right....

  1. The fact that you could tie that with "messy" stuff like that is a testament to your skill. Hope you are feeling better since last time I checked your blog. You are still doing great stuff. It is appreciated. Take care.
