foreign hey what's up guys Tim here got another quick tutorial for you today and I'm just doing a tutorial on the whipping knot and this is something I've used in a previous tutorial it was on just how to tie a very simple and elegant paracord bracelet and I just wanted to have a sort of dedicated tutorial for this type of knot so the whipping knot is essentially when you take a one type of rope and you wrap it around a single or two pieces of rope to either join them or also to prevent like say a thicker piece of rope from fraying or coming apart but of course we can use this in a paracord bracelet making in any which way to you know essentially join any two chords together or say you wanted to create like a loop up here you could tie that whipping right here so I'm just going to demonstrate that now with uh just some 550 paracord here and this cord is a it's the 275 paracord so it's slightly thinner so I've gone about oh about a foot or so here it depends on how thick of the uh how wide the whipping knot you want it to be but uh I'll just quickly show you and you'll get the point so I'm going to start off with uh laying my thinner cord parallel with the chords I'm going to wrap it around like this I'm gonna bend it and bring it around back to where we started which I don't need it that long I'm gonna go like this okay and now I'm gonna have to kind of grab it so hopefully my thumbs don't get in the way okay so you see I've got my excess strand here so now to Simply I'm going to start winding the Str the 275 around everything about around the red and the gray I'm going to wind it around this way and I'm going to go to my right okay so let's see how here I just put it over everything and then I'm just going to start to continue to wind it around like this see I think that I want to put it right next to the cord that I'm winding it on actually I'm going to come a bit closer to show you there we go all right okay so it's a little loose like that don't worry about it and fix it later and now I'm just going to continue winding like that see you can either wrap the cord around or you can just twist everything and go all the way down like this so we're just going to wrap it continually all the way to the end now when you feel like your your whipping knot has gotten to the right size that you want it to be you can pretty much stop okay so I'm gonna I'm pretty much done I don't need any water than that so now what I'm going to do you see this Loop here I'm going to put the end of my paracord or sorry yeah my 275 chord through here like that and then you see this end here I'm going to pull this shut like that that will kind of lock it off right so now you see how this here it's a little ugly it doesn't look perfect that's connected to a cord up here so I'm just going to tug on that pull that tight and then now that this is loose again I'm going to pull this back down okay so at this point you can kind of just shape your knot make sure it's nice and tight like that and there you go there is your whipping knot okay so now I'm just going to snip in singe the uh the excess off and that will be it okay there we have it guys see I snipped and singed off the excess paracord there and our whipping knot is complete and it does uh kind of slide up and down so to be careful with that um as you can see you can use it as a say a clasp to join you know two pieces of paracord you can have you know a slide make this into like a clasp for sliding knot bracelet you know anything you can think of where you need just two cords to stick together and it adds a lot of uh you can add a decorative element to your bracelet as well okay so that is about it hope you guys enjoyed this short brief tutorial and uh if you haven't already please do like share and subscribe that will really help me out and I'll see you guys on the next tutorial video bye foreign
