I am labeling this knot as a prototype because I don't know how useful folks will find the design since it is wider than most lanyard knot designs. With your feedback I will determine if a tutorial should be made.
For this post I thought I would show one of the knots that I have been working on recently. JD at TyingItAllTogether created the original version of this knot and published a video on the tying technique. The original design is great, but when I started fiddling with a few strands of cord the other day I thought I would see how it looked in a "wide" form.

If you have noticed the scrolling marquee, I stated that
changes are coming to my blog. From this point forward, almost every knot
design that I post will be accompanied by a tutorial that will show how I tied
the knot. I will only be adding a
tutorial if the knot meets the following criteria:
- If there are no tutorials for the knot freely available online.- If the tutorial(s) that are available aren’t clear or I feel that I can add something to make it easier to tie the design.

For those who don’t follow or care about football, I hope you will still find this post useful.
On my last hunting trip while navigating to the tree stand, I ended up dripping with sweat in 30° F weather. It occurred to me that I needed to lighten my load so that on future trips I won’t be freezing once I get settled in the stand from the amount of perspiration on my clothing.
An easy way to lose a little weight is to change my hunting knife. I am a lifelong fan of Buck knives, these are well made with good quality materials and they won’t break the bank. That’s when I decided to purchase the Buck PakLite Skinner which looks like the popular Esee Izula knives, but about forty dollars cheaper.
