How to make a 4 bight 5 lead Turks Head Knot 

Just found your site - should have come to visit when I visited Albert Dock a couple of years ago on a HMS Liverpool Communicators reunion. Used to tie knots and make things when on a minesweeper back in the late 60's. The lockdown has given me the urge to try again and be creative using knotwork etc. Your videos are excellent and if a 'sparker' can follow them they must be good. Many thanks and I look forward to viewing many more.

I just love that your do it twice in your videos....that really helps! Blessings, Neesie

So glad I found this video! Your explanation and step by step process gave me the ability to easily tie the 4 bight, 5 lead turks head. Looking forward to more knotting videos...

Their explanations are very simple to follow because they are based on regular patterns, really fantastic. Thank you very much and best regards from Panama. Sus explicaciones son muy simples de seguir porque se basan en patrones regulares, realmente fantástico. Muchas gracias y saludos cordiales desde Panamá.

Thank you SO MUCH for this video. I was having trouble getting this knot and your video is by far the BEST instructional video on the Turk's Head. I am looking forward to watching more of your videos.

I;ve looked at every 4 bight 5 lead video on You Tube...this is the first one that makes sense. Thank you!!

thank you very much that's really a simple wonderful tutorial

That is a great job!! very good video indeed! i love to hear english,so good as yours...congratulations gentleman!!

Hi Brian, I use 20 mm beechwood beads from ebay for my monkeys fist key rings. Theyre cheap as chips! ✌❤ Bob.

Thank you for the film the Turks head knot I wanted to use it on a heaving line but never learned how to do it my dad was a boson on salvage vessels during World war II he taught me how to splice loops then splice the end of a rope so that it doesn't fray thank you I will study your film

Thank you. Glad I found your Channel. Good on you! Subbed and liked. Cheers, Mal

great instructional video, I had good success using your techniques

The Best Turks Head video out there.

Help, Where do you get your cord from? and the name of the place you get the gold one from?

I have a golf ball. Will this fit ? Will you show us how to make 1 with the color stripes of cord ?

Excellent video! Can you tell me where you purchased the fid/lacing needle from?

You can make your own ball out of polymer clay, over foil. Or, a solid one out of epoxy clay.

How would you start this knot if you wanted it on the end of a long line for heaving please ?

How do you close the end of the knot around a ball? If i use a globe knot the end is closed and if I use a Turks Head I have hole at one end.

great technique!!
