Much love from Australia,your videos are by far the easiest to follow. 97 days sober and this has really helped me pass the time in a positive way Thanks heaps
Made these notes for myself. Watch the entire video first, then refer back to these points to re-enforce what you learned. This was a great project. Thank you. 01:44 first 03:34 and 04:30 closure detail 06:30 image to continue 10:31 threading/sizing for stopper knot 11:45 make stopper knot 14:35 finish up
I swear I have finally found THE BEST videos for any Paracord knots. I have tried other videos but thankfully found this one before I threw the Paracord machine through the window. THANK YOU!!!!
Excellent video. for first timer's, let me add a tip to help avoid some of the problems that I ran into: Make your initial 'left side' crossover loop small and as close to the previous knot as possible. This way, when you start cinching things up, you don't have gaps. The first half of my bracelet was a little lumpy and uneven, but the second half looked as tight as the one in the video-- because I figured this little detail out. I'd start mine too big and too far down on the untied cord, so when I cinched up, there were slight gaps in the knots leading to an uneven look.
I really enjoyed making this. Nice and simple. A couple things I learned about making these is, don't make them exactly the circumference of your wrist. You need to make them a little shorter to allow for the amount of stretch that will happen once worn (even when you have tight knots). Another thing... Keep count of the # of knots that works for your wrist. I think mine is 27. My wrist is about 6.5 inches.
My nephew has been asking me for weeks to show him how to tie a paracord bracelet, this was just what I needed. Thanks. Not the easiest thing to teach a 5 and 9 year old. But all the adults picked it up from the first 5 min of your video, and were able to teach the kids the proper way to make the knot, but it was difficult for them to properly sinch the the knot. I found that after you tie the correct knot, you can alternate pulling the Left and Right cords while softly pulling the knot into the base of the wristband. I personally, made an approximately 18" (45.72cm) strand in about 2 hours. Although I was unable to teach my nephews correctly. (If I might suggest) Making a condensed version more appropriate for younger audiences. For example under 5:00 min? I believe the RUclips algorithm favors +10:00 min, but "Exposure is Exposure". I think something orientated towards kids (Or at least techniecs to teach kids) would be helpful. I appreciate the work you have put into this video, so I will let it play till the end. And again, Thanks.
Just finished my first paracord following your instructions. I actually bought the paracords from your store and finally got a chance to make one of my soon many bracelets.
Thank you sir. I had done this knot before but not for a long time. I had forgotten how to do it. Your video and explanation is perfect. You will have helped a great many amount of people with your video. By Watching you do it and your way of doing it I remembered how to do it again. Thanks and best wishes Brian.
I have already made two today! Thank you for the awesome video. I put a toothpick in the small hole in the beginning and left it there until the end. At the end instead of using a Fid I used a nail to open it up a little bit.
I struggle with basic tasks.I have tried many times.My brother got it in one try. Edit:Nvm I was kinda sad.I watched the part at 4:40 closer and it all became clear.Great video
I am doing a bracelet now at 00.47 in the night due to that I can't fall asleep yet xD So atleast I learned some of my very first knots to turn in a bracelet! Thanks for sharing this toturial!
Great tutorial. I made my first bracelet using this video. As I working on it I noticed the knot pattern tended to twist along the length of the bracelet. Is this normal? Thanks for sharing your talents with the paracord people....
I've been tying knots my whole life since I was 8 I'm 54 now seems like I just started. Learning lots of stuff and enjoying the content. The mad max ended bracelets I'm really liking. And I've learned 3 new knots. Peace from Stan the Alaskan. Just subbed too.
Thanks for the easy to follow directions I started and finished it in less then an hour and it looks great When I did mine I did three snake knots at the end
Thanks, I made my first bracelet only today as I just found some at my local dollar tree. I didn't have the needle thing, so threading it through the hole was a bit tricky, but it worked and looks pretty good! Thanks!
Were do you get those lighters. I am 70 years ,and I already made the brazalete for my son and I am from Puerto Rico,thank you for the clear instrucción.
Thanks for the very easy to follow instructions. I'm making a safety sling for a cinema camera mattebox, this works great :D Also I realized that you can do the first loop easier and faster by just twisting the knot snake (from the top clockwise)
I don’t have a Fid needle , so I just sewed the two ends together and used a lighter to bond the ends then pushed it though the hole, and I just wrapped the lose end around itself so it’s not hanging.
Thanks. Video easy to follow. Good instructions. Love the snake knot bracelet. Easier for the grandchildren to put on without the buckles. Made a few of these. Mad Max, 👍🏼.
Great tutorial! :-) One helpful tip would be to specify the length of paracord to start out with for an adult sized bracelet -- the piece I used to follow along ended up a bit too short and I ran out of slack towards the end! By my approximation it takes 5 inches of paracord for 1 inch of bracelet, so assuming you wanted an 8" knot plus an extra 18"-24" of each strand for the closure, you should start with 7' to be on the safe side.
I am going to try to make one of these as a wrist lanyard for my slingshot, I think where you end it with the stopper knot, after the stopper knot ill keep going and continue it with a loop to go through the lanyard hole on the handle of the slingshot! It should be perfect for that,the snake knot wrist part will be more support around my wrist than just a single strand of paracord, more comfortable to. Thanks for the video, I subscribed for more ideas!
Matthew Godfrey I don't have a fid so I always just use my fingers... sometimes it's too hard so I loosen the knot up with a headphone jack and then do the rest 😂😉
Or pull back the outer layer, cut the inner short, let the outer back out, melt and close it. Then the end is thinner, you can push it through easily both. Then pull through both strands together.
I just finished mine except I got ahead of the video and made the starting loop too big. But I just tied a double knot and the loop catches and holds it on my wrist. Thanks!
I’ve made a dog leash with a 4 strand snake knot like this but I am getting stumped by how to make the handle. I want to take the snake weave and loop it over for a simple handle that looks like it just continues from the main lead and weave the four strands back into itself, but I can’t figure out the best way to do this. I don’t think you have a 4 strand snake weave video, so maybe this can be a new content idea for you! Thanks for your help.
When he said "I'm going to back IT up" he meant that he was going to start over to show us a different technique to use for passing the cord through instead of fashioning a temporary loop to pass it through like he showed the first time. He wasn't talking about the camera . . . lol
On a note I used a small key ring to get the small hole but it also stop me from pulling the start loop through and then I just took it off when I was ready to put the last 550 through
What I used to do was to plait such items as these from a hook in the wall. Doing this meant you could lean back and put your weight against the job. That helped keep it straight.
I’m trying to make a paracord duck lanyard and the neck seems to be a snake knot however thiers spirals around I’ve looked everywhere and can’t seem to figure out how to do it!
Nice one, just made my first bracelet following this video. Thanks. Q - What do you with the left over foot or so? Can it be used for anything other than the putting it in the bin?
What I have a way to tie the knot at the end would like to see what u think about it instead of going under go over and bring it back through it to finish it
you probably know this but that starting knot is a bowline or rescue knot and its a wise thing to learn how to tie, there is also a one handed version of the knot.
Gud eve sir love watching ur videos but can aford to buy d chord u are using wish icould have those kind of chords n accessories just to ease my stress tnx more power n god bless ur awesome
My life must be pretty damn insignificant , for me to feel the sense of accomplishment that I feel, after finishing my first Paracord bracelet!!!😩 Great tutorial!!
Luke G I did a different set up to make it stronger for camera support. Which then gave it a core and ended up a little fatter. Thanks for your response though 😉

what size of cord are you using ?and where i can buy buckle?
thank you!
Thank you! Question, is it possible to put gaps between the snake knot so that you have different sections of snake knots on one bracelet?
I've had mine on for about 5years..I haven't taken it off since I made mine..😅

I'm in the feild for training. Sometimes we get a lot of down time. I used 550 cord for this and the mad max cobra knot. Thanks.
I hope you are okay 🤗♥️🙏
What's up Joshua

I just discovered paracord bracelets and am making the first one ever as I type this. You made the instructions so simple thank you!

Ty for being the first vid to remind me how I like doing this knot. 😊
If you do not have a fid, it worked to use a "hemostat" or locking hand grasper like fisherman use to tie/make lures (or used in an OR or GI lab..).
I am doing a bracelet now at 00.47 in the night due to that I can't fall asleep yet xD So atleast I learned some of my very first knots to turn in a bracelet! Thanks for sharing this toturial!
Went thru several vids for snake knot - THIS ONE IS THE BEST!
Your video is easy to follow and you are a great teacher. I just started doing paracord craft and loving it.
Great tutorial. I made my first bracelet using this video. As I working on it I noticed the knot pattern tended to twist along the length of the bracelet. Is this normal? Thanks for sharing your talents with the paracord people....
My first one did that... my second didn't
Boom made my first one ever, easy to follow for me. Thank you 💪🏽🙏🏽
have you tried attaching your buckle to a hook, it helps to keep work still some so it frees up your hands more to finish project faster.
I enjoy how you explain things more than twice and your easy to follow along unlike some channels thank you
Do you have link on a tutorial on the blue bracelet you have on this video? Thanks! Great video. 👍
I've been tying knots my whole life since I was 8 I'm 54 now seems like I just started. Learning lots of stuff and enjoying the content. The mad max ended bracelets I'm really liking. And I've learned 3 new knots. Peace from Stan the Alaskan. Just subbed too.
You have encouraged me to start playing around with paracord. I get all the things tomorrow and I will see how I do.
Thanks for the easy to follow directions I started and finished it in less then an hour and it looks great
When I did mine I did three snake knots at the end
Thanks for this.
Just made my first paracord item!
Thanks, I made my first bracelet only today as I just found some at my local dollar tree. I didn't have the needle thing, so threading it through the hole was a bit tricky, but it worked and looks pretty good! Thanks!
I know it is four years later, but I have found that toothpicks can help if you dont have the specialized tool
I learned the snake knot a little bit different but the results are the same. Good work
Can anyone say the name of the needle like tool used here
Fid. He has a link to fids sold from his store
Thank you so much for helping me make these. I made my first one last night. But I made it with a charger cord and its pretty dope💖💖💖
I used a safety pin in the loop. Worked great. Where do you get the needles?
Great video. What do you call that lighter you using and what brand please. Thank you
do i need that needle thing to make the bracelet? i want to make one for my boyfriend but i dont think i have that needle thing
Thank you for the instructions. I made my first bracelet with the Peacock paracord. Very nice! More bracelets on the way...
Were do you get those lighters. I am 70 years ,and I already made the brazalete for my son and I am from Puerto Rico,thank you for the clear instrucción.

Where to get the needle thing?
Dude I swear I’ve done 5 bracelets in 2 days. Tried to stay up and make my own style, needless to say 3am and idk where I am. Help!!!!!!!!!!!
....
I want to help but I’ve knot got any idea what you need !
@99woodardsj it's 3:54 a.m., Thanksgiving morning and I've not slept since Tuesday...so that dad joke is really HILARIOUS!!😂🤣🙃

Is it possible to do a crisscrossed pattern or an "X-Shaped"-Pattern style paracord bracelet with only one paracord string?
Nice, where do I find that needle like thing used to get the ends through the loop?
you can get them from his shop or amazon its called a fid or laceing needle ither one works great
Just made one and it came out just right! Thanks! You're pretty clear on your instructions.
your are the easiest to follow!
First time making a paracord bracelet and needless to say I couldn't have done it without this video. Thanks!
How to determine starting cord length?
You made it very easy to follow! Instructional videos like this are what RUclips is all about! Thanks for taking the time to share your knowledge!
How long do you need the Paracord to be?
What type of cord are you using in this video. can you give me a link thanks
I am going to try to make one of these as a wrist lanyard for my slingshot, I think where you end it with the stopper knot, after the stopper knot ill keep going and continue it with a loop to go through the lanyard hole on the handle of the slingshot! It should be perfect for that,the snake knot wrist part will be more support around my wrist than just a single strand of paracord, more comfortable to. Thanks for the video, I subscribed for more ideas!
Going to try this with some thin, round leather cordage to make a thin but strong necklace for my mjolnir and bearded axe pendants.
I made mine an anklet and for the end knot I made it un-tiable as I could not get it over my heel. Also, what thickness Paramore are you using?
made 3 paracords from your videos for personal use i have to say it's fun and looks great thank you
That snake knot bracelet from Mad Max. It will suit me well on my right wrist thank you.
I tried this and thought it was quite tricky. Not sure if its because the paracord i used is flat and not round like in the video
Thank you for your content, just made this one as a follow along and it turned out great. Easy to follow and clear info.thank you.😊
You could actually put a microcord fid in the closure loop so it doesn't pull through and can sinch it down some.
Do you need the fid? Or can you just push it through with your fingers at the end?
Matthew Godfrey I don't have a fid so I always just use my fingers... sometimes it's too hard so I loosen the knot up with a headphone jack and then do the rest 😂😉
Just use anything pointy and long that you have lying around, like a pen.
Or pull back the outer layer, cut the inner short, let the outer back out, melt and close it. Then the end is thinner, you can push it through easily both. Then pull through both strands together.
@@zsiga09 damn, this is actually genius, thanks!
I used a pen and it seems to hold up fairly well. You could probably use a nail and that would work well I think.
I just finished mine except I got ahead of the video and made the starting loop too big. But I just tied a double knot and the loop catches and holds it on my wrist. Thanks!
here okay! bracelet finished! thanks man... awesome
What is the name of the material you use
It's Nylon cord
Hi where can I buy paracord bracelets material or kid to make for myself
I’ve made a dog leash with a 4 strand snake knot like this but I am getting stumped by how to make the handle. I want to take the snake weave and loop it over for a simple handle that looks like it just continues from the main lead and weave the four strands back into itself, but I can’t figure out the best way to do this. I don’t think you have a 4 strand snake weave video, so maybe this can be a new content idea for you! Thanks for your help.
Thanks for the easy to follow instructions. I made two braclets already. Thank you!!
OMG thank goodness i found you lol....i have been trying to wrap my cellphone cords to sell and i love the snake knot but forgot how you did yours!!!
"Im gonna back this up." *zooms in*
When he said "I'm going to back IT up" he meant that he was going to start over to show us a different technique to use for passing the cord through instead of fashioning a temporary loop to pass it through like he showed the first time. He wasn't talking about the camera . . . lol
ShadeoftHEARTdesigns The person you are responding to is not at goat, but a donkeys arse!
On a note I used a small key ring to get the small hole but it also stop me from pulling the start loop through and then I just took it off when I was ready to put the last 550 through
What I used to do was to plait such items as these from a hook in the wall. Doing this meant you could lean back and put your weight against the job. That helped keep it straight.
What length of cord do I need for about 6" bracelet? (5-strand paracord)
8 feet should be enough, with some extra room
You do a great job explaining and showing.. My favorite so far.... Thanks.
I’m trying to make a paracord duck lanyard and the neck seems to be a snake knot however thiers spirals around I’ve looked everywhere and can’t seem to figure out how to do it!
Nice one, just made my first bracelet following this video. Thanks.
Q - What do you with the left over foot or so? Can it be used for anything other than the putting it in the bin?
Small zipper fob?? You need some 10" for that, so it could work!! Let me know
great video, is there any way to calculate how many feet per inch? You are making 7 inch bracelet out of 10 feet. I want to create for inches
Mine keeps twisting as I make it
Mine too... I thought it's only happen because of I use flat paracord
You have to straighten after each one
I don't have a lighter, so does a match work just as well?, or should I spend the money on a lighter to finish the paracord ends?
Ben B your going to need a lighter
What I have a way to tie the knot at the end would like to see what u think about it instead of going under go over and bring it back through it to finish it
you probably know this but that starting knot is a bowline or rescue knot and its a wise thing to learn how to tie, there is also a one handed version of the knot.
Do you know what they call the super simple paracord bracelet on his right hand?
hey I'm using this video to make the tree snake from one of ur books, can u do a video of how to make the snake?
It was a very good training, thank you💫💫💫💫
What is that metal pencil called? Fib?
Gud eve sir love watching ur videos but can aford to buy d chord u are using wish icould have those kind of chords n accessories just to ease my stress tnx more power n god bless ur awesome
How do you know how much to use for what size wrist you have??
Thank you bud , it helped a lot❤
bro he is not checking the comments, its been 7 years -_-
Hey thanks for the vid. Just made one and it works and looks great 👍🏻 used a double braid on the stopper knot just to be safe lol
My life must be pretty damn insignificant , for me to feel the sense of accomplishment that I feel, after finishing my first Paracord bracelet!!!😩 Great tutorial!!
Made my first one!!! Thanks 😊
How you do this snake knot mad max style but with two colors and hide the joint???
stupid question but does this work with the 325 paracord or does it not work well with it?
Hey, if you don't have a fid leave the loops a lil bit bigger so you don't struglle
is the knot pattern supposed to kind of curve to the left? i see that tours is straight but my pattern is curved
great video man I just made mine in black and green like monster energy but had to do it over messed one knot up an the closer was a bit to big
What's the thickness of the cord that you have used??
I was reccomend your website for good and affordable paracord!! Then I found this vid
Can I tie a knot in way that leaves loose strings?
hey I wanted to thank you for the video, I made my first paracord bracelet thanks to this video.
Tina Bina Lowe is this one easy? Because I want to start with making paracord bracelets.
This is actually one of them he hard ones, try the cobra bracelet
Is there a way to have the snake knot end up thicker around?
stacy white don’t pull the knot as tight
Luke G I did a different set up to make it stronger for camera support. Which then gave it a core and ended up a little fatter. Thanks for your response though 😉
Does the slack knot at the end just hang there? There's no bottle so how does it stay?
Very well explained with step by step knots thank you please send More new styles when you upload a new video
What’s that needle called and where can I get it please
