In this video I show you how to tie a paracord snake knot for making knife lanyards and fobs, paracord bracelets, zipper pulls, etc. You just need a few things: 1) paracord, 2) scissors, and, 3) a lighter. That's it! Everything else is explained in the video.
Take care, stay sharp, and be blessed!

you say you're not very good at explaining this. This is the only video on RU-vid I can watch and tie the knot while the dude on the video ties in the knot. No, you explained it perfectly thank you for the video.

@oldjoeclarke. 5 лет назад

That is exactly what I was gonna write, good job.

@supremeuppercut 5 лет назад

100% Agree!

@reegsgeer 4 года назад

@jeckyll71 4 года назад

I agree. Good pacing of the steps and clear timely instructions. Made one of these for a new knife while watching the video and it turned out great! Thanks :)

@africanwidow 4 года назад

Yep. I 1million % agree. I looked at all the others on You Tube and this one works! I am elated and love my first paracord snake knot on my Tops Mini Scandi Rockies Edition neck knife!

@j.r.jusino5063 3 года назад

Finally somebody with a teaching skill, not rushing!!! Excellent.

@brettmoore6781 5 лет назад

after watching like 5 videos on this knot, yours is the only one that was simple and straighforward enough for me to replicate. Thank you!!!

@vivianmorresey 2 года назад

I agree. I watched this a year ago...made a few things and this technique felt natural very quickly. I just went to make another lanyard and my dumb brain forgot the muscle memory, so I had to search for a video, and none made sense like this one. I only need to watch for 30 sec's and am back on track

@SMPTEColorBars 4 года назад

5:18 "...I'm not exactly very good at explaining myself..." After a perfect tutorial on how to tie this knot! #humble #humility Thanks so much for the video!

@carolbergh379 3 месяца назад

I think out of all the videos I watched, your video was THE BEST!!!!! SIMPLE, CLEAN, SLOW , EASY TO FOLLOW! Thank you so much!!!

@lauriewolford8364 2 года назад

I've watched multiple videos today (32 till I found yours) trying to learn how to tie this and yours by far is the best one! You are very clear with each step and you don't rush things. Thank you so much for making this video, I can tie the cord right now!!!

@survivalkraft 2 года назад

You are very kind! I'm glad the video helped!

@jaysmith2151 2 года назад

LoL I just left him basically the same message cuz everybody has long difficult videos about this not I watched his for a couple minutes and now I have a lanyard that's about 6 in Long and it's tied very good too I suggest if you haven't already on Amazon or probably Walmart if they have the same paracord they have nice thick strong paracord for very cheap that comes in a big roll so when you're doing the knots they come out very good they look professional like as if a machine made it especially when you got a guy like this showing you how to make it...

@donovanchilton5817 2 года назад

I still can't do it because I'm stupid, apparently.

10/10 tutorial; no fluff, all good info, good layout. 👍 Thanks!

@framedalive6677 3 года назад

Thank you, that was a far easier way to learn this than other videos I had watched - especially for a first time knot maker like myself. I made it super hard on myself too, as I was learning with rope, not paracord!!

@judymcgowan2881 Год назад

You were very good explaining!!

@IndustrialJones 3 месяца назад

I can never remember quite how to tie the snake knot since it's only once every couple of years. I searched through several videos because I can recognize the "right" way and yours was the first one that was concise and right. Great explanation. Got a nice tight knot just how I wanted.

@OutsideTheTargetDemographic 5 лет назад

Furious after three other videos, yours is the first one where I was able to follow after the first knot. Good job explaining and showing.

@michaelbradley6994 Месяц назад

Tried other vids to learn this knot, you were by far the best -- thank you sir!

@robin3840 2 года назад

Fantastic video! I learned how to do this in literally 1 minute thanks to this video, now I just need to practice more make it better. And sir, you are very, very good at explaining yourself and if you do more knot-tutorials Id watch them all! Thank you so much!

I have wanted to know how to tie a snake knot for Buddhist malas for years, but never got my mind to follow the instructions and my clumsy fingers to do it - until now! This is the easiest instruction I’ve come across and you explain it really well - just did my first mala all on my own, thanks so much!!!

@passionknife8721 3 года назад

Hi from France, your technique is very good because some people make a simple knot from below and above but the result is not the same, thank you dude

@shawnr771 5 лет назад

Nice job. Actually good job explaining yourself. To fix the knot so it wont come loose. Use the lighter. Carefully melt the bottom of the last knot together. When that nylon melts to itself it will almost never come loose.

@lindataylor4461 2 года назад

I agree with the many comments saying how clearly and exactly you explained this. This is the only video I have watched that allows me to successfully tie these knots. Thank you so much!!

@lukastomasch 4 года назад

Awesome, mate! I just wanted to do something like this for my polar jacket pocket zippers and this gave me a great idea. What I will do however is I am going to use a different type of ending. I will leave about 3/4” pigtails and slide them in a shrinking tube like the one electrician use. Thanks for the video!

@kevinmccabe1423 2 года назад

Sweet video. Always wanted to put a lanyard on the end of a few of my knives but could never figure out what kind I wanted to make. I know now. Good looking and super easy! Thanks!

@survivalkraft 6 лет назад

I'm glad you like the video! Did your lanyards/fobs turn out well?

@appalachiangunman9589 4 года назад

Gold Daddy yeah I just used this video to make one for my knife, I made a lanyard from paracord before, it was good and secure but this knot is really secure and looks much nicer.

@smasheddragon 5 лет назад

Knots... hahahaha. Comment of the day

@walterwilliams9191 5 лет назад

Al Catraz A bowline knot is used to put an eye or loop in the end of a line. While similar mechanics are used to tie the knots. The bowline is only tied in the end where the snake knot is in the middle of the lines. The snake knitted decorative a bowline is a working knot.

The ship witch he was on was 1 of few that service at the beginning to the end of ww2. So he thought me so many different types of knots and such.
