You really use that knot? That seems very complicated. Maybe it s just me... Thats why I like the overhand knot. I guess.

Found that knot site-that's neat! Easy way for me to train other scout leaders for knot work! Looks like the knot for splicing the thread is called the 'sheetbend' knot-shows it very cleanly. I've always called it a sheepshank-might be an old colliquialism from 'the stone age'... but that's the knot. Roland
