Seizing a Rope - Seizing an Eye in a Rope
In this video I show how I seize an eye into a rope. When seizing a rope via this particular method, I do it for decorative purposes when making something like a soft shackle. I think that if you want to seize and eye into a rope for lifting purposes, then this method may not be suitable.
As a starting point is is worth using an eye spliced cord, or if not able to eye splice then a clove hitch or a timber hitch as a starting knot. The main reason being is, that the initial knot needs to have lower profile as possible.
If you feel as though it requires a little more security, you could also coat the seizing with a little of the finishing solution (link below).

Tying the Knot starts at 6:00

@Hjerte_Verke Год назад

You do have a desperate disinclination to getting to the point. 😀

@oml81mm 2 года назад

This is, in effect, a sheer lashing. I do agree that the timber hitch is a better way of starting it off given rhe relative sizes of the cordage involved.

@TomTholan 16 дней назад

08:28 You say, that this type of seizing is not strong enough for an eye seizing. What type of seizing is strong enough for eye seizing? I thought, these round seizing you can use for eye seizing???

@robertmills6082 6 месяцев назад

Thank you for all your help tying knots Thank you so much Your great 😊

Thanks for taking the time to view and also make a comment, very much appreciated.

@Lou_fromthe_Soo 6 лет назад

Again you read my mind. I'm using seizing to make a safety line for my safety line, but I'm using the round seizing variant, where I haul it as taught as possible with a marline spike hitch, then do a second set of covering turns. Where I have an eye I using 2 seizings. I'll upload a picture. I got the technique from my favourite book The Rigger's Apprentice.

@KnottingKnots 6 лет назад

Yes, when I researched this subject, I found that there were quite a few variants of this. I just selected the one that looked the best. Will be interested to see your photo.

@judywyatt4790 2 года назад

I have a question about the white lanyard on your folding awl. What knot or series of knots is it and do you have a video to explain this project? Thank you Jude

@KnottingKnots 2 года назад

Hello Judy, Yes, there is a video on the long Turks Head: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-BElWOmPYNEA.html Thanks for taking the time to view and also make a comment, very much appreciated.

@adamwhiteson6866 3 года назад

Nice. I'm obsessed with shackles right now so this is fun.

@KnottingKnots 3 года назад

If you are talking about soft shackles............. me too!! Do we have a problem? Thanks for taking the time to view and also make a comment, very much appreciated.

@jameshaggarty1623 3 года назад

I'm planning to use this seizing on finishing a rope halter. The halter ends with two lines wrapping around the back of the horses head and ties into a loop on the other side. Seizing the ends with paracord makes it easier to tie, and gives me approx 3 ft of paracord to use (if needed) when trail riding, eg a temporary repair to broken tack or to tie open/close a gate. The pcord is convenient as seizing but doesn't negatively impact the halter if it's removed. Nice touch with the low profile; that even improves it for my projects.

@KnottingKnots 3 года назад

Always good to hear about knots being used. Thanks for taking the time to view and also make a comment, very much appreciated.

@howdydoody30204b 5 лет назад

Thanks. Just what I needed. Would it be correct to assume that, if you make a loop with an overhand knot, that degrades the strength of the shackle, while making your way does not?

@toanluoidiy997 6 лет назад

thank you it is very useful

@KnottingKnots 6 лет назад

Thanks for taking the time to view and also make a comment, very much appreciated. Are you more of a practical or decorative knotter?

@joeinthebush Год назад

I learned alot from JOHNNY'S WORLD ..miss your videos...hope all is well..

@FigsArtsandCrafts 6 лет назад

I'll make it a point to use this knot in my next project. I love the what you did to the lighter. Can you do a video on that?

@KnottingKnots 6 лет назад

These two videos will give you an idea on the stitch used on the lighter. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-MydDt-x_cew.html and ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-HvEvJDMmSEE.html

@Whiskey3pa 6 лет назад

Nice look. It is much easier to position a seizing than a splice, which can be very helpful, depending on the application. They make a great look, for my eye, anyway.

@KnottingKnots 6 лет назад

Yes, it really does look good and also if you use coloured twine.

@railway-share3820 5 лет назад

Good video. After tying the timber hitch was there a reason you did the turns up the rope? If you started further up you could go down the rope and trap the end of the timber hitch under the seizing.

@federicoolivieri1793 2 года назад

I LOVE your videos. I am learning tons of stuff!!! Thanks for sharing! Question:L what would be the procedure if I want to seize an eye for lifting purpose?

@KnottingKnots 2 года назад

I am not sure that seizing alone to create an eye would be strong enough. I personally would either splice and eye in a rope or create a loop knot at the end. Now off to find out how strong seizing a rope is???? 😉 😉 😉

@toni3117 5 лет назад

Great video! Thanks!

@waynemazan7485 5 лет назад

Great video... must we have the clock ??

@denverjnpierre6211 3 года назад

I would like you to do a video of how to extend a fishing net.. I am stuck after making a few rows, the vertical side has space, but placing it seems to be a problem.

@KnottingKnots 3 года назад

You may also be interested in these other Net Making Videos, there are a few different types of nets and also knots: ru-vid.com/group/PL7nysDkNnZHelZpSk9Xi0YyztSUKgC4GA I do hope that you find some of these of interest.

@BillSikes. 4 года назад

Use a Seizing Mallet, three seizings on a sreel hawser if done properly is as strong as any eye splice, it's used regularly in lots of applications

@ryder6070 3 месяца назад

>serving mallet...

@equesdeventusoccasus 2 года назад

I looked for but must have missed the other video you mentioned in this one. Could you please add it to the pinned comment, or let me know where to find it in the video?

@KnottingKnots 2 года назад

I wonder if you mean this video: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-QWvXnEWihU0.html

@equesdeventusoccasus 2 года назад

@@KnottingKnots I am fairly certain that has to be the one that you spoke about in this video. I really like that knot

@niclasandersson582 4 года назад

Well, one would never start with a hitch then doing a seizing. Lay the end under the first few turns and let the seizing lock the end or tuck the end under a strand and then let the seizing be a secondary lock. The to turns shall be tightened properly using a marlin spike and a marlin spike hitch. The doing the square knot a needle can of course be used, but a twisted steel wire with an eye fitted to a wooden handle would be thinner and reduce the risk of getting slack in the seizing. This was a technique used then making pilot ladders which had about the same diameter rope as the one used in this video and they looked perfect the we did them. If done the right way it would look good even for Johnny. On the positive Johnny’s videos are always filmed in a way that makes it easy to see what he’s doing.

@garrythomas1297 6 лет назад

Good morning, have been a follower or you’re work for some time, and I should like to take the opportunity to say thank you for many useful knots used in many a project. What I should like to ask is, is it possible to do some projects, like the covering on you’re burner or maybe a bell pull (I used a basic one, with a carabiner for a pull handle on my pool pump cover, which is located under a trap) or even sea beckets. Warmest Regards, and avid follower, Garry Thomas from Sydney Australia Ps .... just love the sound of the clock in the back ground!

@KnottingKnots 6 лет назад

Everybody loves the clock, and the occasion snoring of my dog!! Yes, I really must get on and do some more projects like you mention. The only trouble is that they do take some extra filming, but they are going to be done! Thanks for taking the time to view and also make a comment, very much appreciated. Are you more of a practical or decorative knotter?

@garrythomas1297 6 лет назад

Johnny Debt I like to think I’m more decorative ....... how ever, my wife thinks they are neither! I fish in cold climes so my boat has the appropriate metal parts covered with decretive .... along with my walking stick - steering wheel - etc! The fishing group I fish with, all have “nice” painters, key rings ..... well you get the picture! I thank you for taking the time to read and then take the interest to reply. Warmest and most Sincere Regards. Garry Thomas

@KnottingKnots 6 лет назад

Hello Garry, unlike other RU-vidrs, I really am interested in what people write in my comments. I also really do love to see other people work. if you are able to can you please drag-and-drop some of your work here: goo.gl/mQgf8E

@sharksshark6212 3 года назад

So what would be a strong eye splice, if this is just decorative?

@KnottingKnots 3 года назад

You could use the Marlin Eye Splice: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-l_bxz8Jn8E8.html or the Eye Splice: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-9Ceg1-KAPpo.html They would be a more secure way of putting a loop into the end of a rope. Thanks for taking the time to view and also make a comment, very much appreciated.

@gordonrussell7165 3 года назад

Great video but what do you do with the loose ends if you want to keep the loops at each end.

@stick9648 6 месяцев назад

Could finish with epoxy .

@johnprehara6923 4 года назад

The anchor hitch is often given added security by seizing the running end to the standing end.

@KnottingKnots 4 года назад

Back in the day, there were a lot of knots that were seized, Carrick bend was always one of them. Thanks for taking the time to view and also make a comment, very much appreciated.

@DonovanCYoung 6 лет назад

Late to the party here; but for this best results, the seizing should typically be between 1 and 1.5 times the width of the rope.

@KnottingKnots 6 лет назад

I think I might have learnt something here, I know this is the case for whipping, but never thought about it for seizing. As you are late, all that is left at this party is the washing-up. :-)

@kimhowell9086 6 лет назад

what is the link for the "lanyard knot" at the end of your Seizing an Eye in a Rope project?

@KnottingKnots 6 лет назад

Ooo, did I forget that? Off to find it right now!! Here it is: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-QWvXnEWihU0.html Thanks for taking the time to view and also make a comment, very much appreciated. Are you more of a practical or decorative knotter?

@kimhowell9086 6 лет назад

Johnny Debt probably more of a decorative knotter.

@KnottingKnots 6 лет назад

Are you able to show me any of your work, as I do love to see other peoples knot-craft? You can drag and drop a photo here, please: goo.gl/mQgf8E

@TomBrooklyn 5 лет назад

what kind of needles do we need?

@rubiconjnw 6 лет назад

Nice video! Great timing as I was about to open ABOK but thought I search YT first. BTW, were you at the IGKT gathering in Loughborough? What a great time.

@KnottingKnots 6 лет назад

Sadly I was not at Loughborough, I suffer from at times from extreme tiredness and therefore going places is sometime a bit of a challenge. Glad that you liked this one, always good to know when a video helps out.

@brucemorton13 6 лет назад

Good information, well presented. I'm going to use the information. But... "knotting" did not start until 6:00; you almost lost me.

@brucemorton13 6 лет назад

P.S. What's the difference between seizing and whipping?

@CafeBikeGirl 6 лет назад

Agree, I would probably briefly mention the soft shackel, get into the how to of the seizing, then put the bulk of the discussion of the shackel at the end.

@KnottingKnots 6 лет назад

Yes, sorry. This video was rather rushed in the fact that I ran out of time to cut the garbage! I have now posted a note in the comments and also description to show a start time. Thanks for letting me know.

@KnottingKnots 6 лет назад

My understanding is that whipping is done on a single line, where as lashing is used to keep two lines or object together.

@CafeBikeGirl 6 лет назад

So I'm guessing once your done it is safe to cut the tail off of the starting point?

@izaacbanks3337 6 лет назад

Correct

@KnottingKnots 6 лет назад

Yes, as Izaac says. Thanks for taking the time to view and also make a comment, very much appreciated. Are you more of a practical or decorative knotter?

@izaacbanks3337 6 лет назад

Both practical and decorative i like to make things like bosuns lanyard and while restoring a sailboat knots are important and i know more than i can count people think i am crazy for knowing so many knots

@KnottingKnots 6 лет назад

Have I seem some of your work Izaac?

@izaacbanks3337 6 лет назад

I dont think so

@moradan81 4 года назад

This looks exactly like a shear lashing, only with a rope instead of spars.

@TomBrooklyn 5 лет назад

good show. make it six minutes.

@domr-j3672 Год назад

Tiiiime for a seize

@KnottingKnots Год назад

You plan on using it?

@williamhogg7830 5 лет назад

I usually enjoy watching this man with his rope tying shows, But n this one #1 he talks too much...and #2 I don't think he knows what he is doing!

@tycox8704 3 года назад

Good gawd, you’re talkative. Fifteen minutes to describe a two minute task? Five minutes to get started?

@KnottingKnots 3 года назад

I started a long time ago to "over explain" as I have one subscriber who is blind. He and his granddaughter follow the videos, he listens and she watches. He ties the knot and if he goes wrong his granddaughter corrects him. A lovely little bond must be growing between them?

@口口口口-n1c Год назад

1:13 Ok... so could we please see a "real seizing" that you would trust you life on and variant by weight categories 100 lbs, 200lbs, 300lbs... 1t, 2t...

@stick9648 6 месяцев назад

Saw one yesterday and it's quite the task . No mention of capacities though .
