My dad once spliced a rope holding a boat on the sea. The thick rope was clearly torn and not well-taken care of. My dad, not knowing who oned the boat, untied the rope and started splicing it. I thought it was the coolest thing how he could make that old rope look nice again. He then proceeded to tie the rope back where it was. I bet the boat owner was really happy when he realized he didn't have to struggle with that mess of a rope anymore! I'm glad I found a video to teach me what my dad did :D

73 yrs old, and this is my first time, you make it easy,thank you

I have been looking for this for many years! My Dad and Grandfather used to make lead ropes for the horses using this as the end knot. I thought I would never learn their secret! Thank you for sharing!❤

I forgot how to make this back splice. Years, many years ago I could do this. Thanks for reteaching.

I watched two or three other videos without being able to figure out what to do, but once I watched your video it was clear. Thank you!

Thank you. I spent several hours just getting this wrong until I found your video. Brilliant Mark.

Thank you! I have just re-learned how to do this with your very clear video and instruction.

I'm watching this with the sound off because the missus is watching the news, and I can still follow it perfectly and can tell that the voiceover must be really detailed! Thanks, am looking forward to watching it with the sound on-if I need to, that is!! Well done.

What a great simple Crown Knot process. Thanks for sharing.

Best back splicing tutorial I've found. Thank you! :-D

Excellent, thank you for sharing, I've been looking for someone to teach me this knot and you've done a great job at it.

Thank you! Just fixed the rope at my gym! Learned this ages ago from my dad but forgot the details. This worked perfectly!

Thank you

Thank you so much helpful vdo

I notice your rope strands are twisted anti-clockwise. My rope twists clockwise looking at the end coming out. Does this make any difference to the direction of your first loop in the crown knot?

Thank you Mark' perfect speed for the crown knot, muchos muchos😉

Thank you so much for clear directions. I’ve watched 2 other videos and wanted to scream at the complicated instructions. Why do some people try to make things so complicated?

Mark- I’ve said this before; your video instructions are by far the best out there. They are easy to follow and very informative. I always come away learning more than I came in with. If I may ask, where about sin the world do you reside? Do you ever attend knotters functions? Would love to meet. Thanks again. Don Eshelman from SF Bay Area.

Man. Can I help you? Rope. I'm a frayed knot.

What’s that tool you’re using?

Hey! This is a braiders fid. More specifically, it is made by C.S.Osborne, called #477. For working with rope, usually a marline spike or a sailors fid will be more appropriate. But this is what I had :). Mark

Eye splice had always been a piece of cake for me.. this splice, i always make a mistake in making the crown.. thank you for showing it..

Great video

Don't keep saying easy its bloody impossible, from the start the crown knot looks nothing like yours and it gets limp and messy as it goes on impossible unless your a professional stopped rewound bid over and over to no avail I d give up

I'm not going to listen to an AI voice
