In this video you will learn How to Tie the 4 Strand Round Sennit. This particular Four Strand Round sennit is often used when creating long knife lanyards, a decorative weave incorporated in say a neck lanyard or anywhere else that you want to use a very decorative four strand sennit.
The formula for this four strand sennit is relatively easy. I find it best to do the required amount all in one go, thereby keeping the everything constant. As you are creating this particular weave, it is best to try and keep the tension constant, so as to get a wonderful uniform finish.

And here I am... good afternoon.
Like this one John I might make some keyrings with this.
Yes, one end attached to your belt, the other to your keys................... you are slowly coming over to the dark side???
excellent - easy to follow!
also look so good when making a long knife lanyard. Thanks for taking the time to view and also make a comment, very much appreciated.
Happy New Year! Thank you for your work. I wish you good luck and good mood!
Happy New Year to you too Alex.
Nice plaiting.
Happy New Year to you and All from the Land Downunder
Glad that you liked it. Happy New Year to you too!! 😉 😉 😉
Thanks Johnny! I do this over two and then back under one. I do all my braiding in front,rather than the go behind method.
I never thought about that, I assume that the result is the same with your method?
@@KnottingKnots yes,imagine that someone is sitting on the other side of your clamp watching you braid. What they would be seeing is what I see when I braid. I’ve learned a lot of braiding out of the Encyclopedia of Rawhide and Leather Braiding and they,like everybody else teach the go behind method. I’ve had to translate the instructions to suit my preference. My return back is still behind,but I like the first half to be in front of my face.
@@gregglockhart9551 Many thanks for your response, now that book is of interest to me, must look for it..................
Happy New Year , good video ,thanks for sharing , God bless !
Happy New Year to you too!! 😉 😉 😉
Hi Johnny! Happy New Year! Great vid!!
.......... and a Happy New Year to you too.
Good one John. I've used this one a lot in all kinds of mateials. Looks good in thin leather lacing. Thanks for taking the time to share your craft. All the best to you and your family for a healthy and happy new year. Looking forward to 2022.
I made a long knife lanyard with tarred line. Giving the lanyard good strength, I also love the simplicity of this. Happy New Year to you too!! 😉 😉 😉
What a coincidence, I’m using this same sennit for a project I’m currently working on. Very nice. Happy New Year Johnny. Can’t say it enough, thank you for sharing all of your knowledge and experience. Looking forward to the next one. 🍾🥂🗓
Your work always astounds me!!! Happy New Year to you too!! 😉 😉 😉
Hey Johnny, I just wanted to say that I found your channel earlier this year. I was originally looking for tutorials on some of the more common hitches and loops. I've learned a lot about practical knots (and their variations, oh so many variations) this year, and your videos have been a large part of this along with a small handful of other channels. Having enjoyed your style of presenting practical knots I've found myself watching your more decorative knotting videos and have become increasingly interested in this side of the skill/hobby. As a matter a fact, I can now tie a Turks Head on the hand after a few watches and following along with the 5X4 Turks Head video of yours.
So I really just wanted to say thank you. You have become one of my "go to" channels for anything knotting.
Happy New Year.
Happy New Year to you too!! 😉 😉 😉 Thank you for your kind comments, I am now guessing that anything that moves is covered with a decorative knot?
@@KnottingKnots Haha, yeah there are few thing with knots on them now.
Your explanation it's pretty clear. I already subscribed at the moment I saw the second video, but I have always the same problem. I don't know how to end these works. How to "close" them. Anyways, thank you. (Also I really like your accent)
I often use this one for making knife lanyards, you can terminate the ends with a Matthew Walker: ruclips.net/video/F-abRokvWJU/видео.htmlsi=5S5zT0cYgaL4MlDx or a Manrope Knot: ruclips.net/video/DbXjJz35EVA/видео.htmlsi=Z3CZFbkBh65DpCAX
BTW did you know that two completely different ways of tying a four strand braid produces the same braid pattern? The method you demonstrated here, and crossing the middle two strands then crossing the top inner strand under the outside strand on its side then crossing the bottom inner strand over the outside strand on its side. Then just keep repeating the pattern. This will produce an identical braid to your method. I discovered this by accident when I was trying to produce multiple braid styles on the same four strands of cord. So far I know five different methods, but only four results.
This sennit can also be tied by twisting two strands together and then weaving the other two strands through the twist. This method can be used to make a four stand round sennit from a single piece of cordage. You fold it in half, twist for a little under half its length, then tie the two strands in a half knot and weave them back through, until you end up with a four strand sennit with the two bitter ends sticking out from the loop where you started the twist.
Also you can take one strand, fold and twist, then fold a second strand of equal length in half, and wave it through the first in the opposite direction.
Very interesting, thanks for sharing this technique. Thanks for taking the time to view and also make a comment, very much appreciated.
Once again great video. But as with the last one i commented on how do you finish it off to make it a usable sennit?
Great vids - just found you. What’s this typically used for ?
This is often used when creating a fancy neck lanyard or a long knife lanyard. Where the number 7 is, that is four strand: photos.google.com/share/AF1QipM-jru_cgzhOl7NDlkC9OCggb_d-hxaO7qjZ3qIa6GalbH9KBMG3q-BUmKuxKLHDw/photo/AF1QipN-_WPmi23ffCvs7Pe45-Nm4ypaPNRLj26CgV8P?key=T3diaVJ2STFBVm9VdDl6ODRpSDdBOEk1SlFMQmxn
Hi Johnny - off topic from this video, but... I am pretty ok with small Turk's Heads, 4, 5 bight, 2,3,4 passes, I would like to tie a decorative Turk's Head on a Narrowboat tiller, something like about 6 inches long around the 1.5" dia. brass tube. What I can't work out is how to elongate the TH - just increasing the passes clearly doesn't work. I'm sure I am missing something blindingly obvious, but it isn't dropping right now. An idea for a new video maybe?? Thanks.
I have two videos of the long Turks Head, 2 Bight version and the 4 Bight version. In the video on both, it shows an initial 3 turns, however at this point you can up the number of turns, before you head back to the beginning. 2 Bight: ruclips.net/video/MGNodpJTdxE/видео.html and the 4 Bight: ruclips.net/video/hEeQVupsr1g/видео.html Hope that these help?
@@KnottingKnots Awesome! (as the young folk say). I promise I looked before asking, but it was late. These two vids are perfect! Thanks.
@@nigel4425 Another thought struck me, maybe consider Coachwhipping, sadly I do not have a video on that yet, but this video may help: ruclips.net/video/1S1IkjCJYvI/видео.html
@@KnottingKnots Thanks - I think I will stick with the 'simple' stuff first.
