tysonmi Report post Posted September 9, 2023 Does anyone know how to do this? From what I can find out, it was made by Eugene Ulrich. He has instructions in his book on the hackamore diamond knot. It looks to be a fiador knot, which I can do, but I don’t think I could do it through the neck of a bottle. Any ideas? Thanks in advance. Tyson Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
K5HEP Report post Posted September 10, 2023 When you tie your fiador knot - do you use a mandrel or do you do it freehand ? Could a small mandrel be used and inserted in the bottle and worked to form the knot ? I am not a knot person - I am just throwing this idea out there...

tysonmi Report post Posted September 10, 2023 I have not used a mandrel for this type of knot before. It might work. I think that the knot is bigger than the neck of the bottle, so at least part of it would have to be tied down in there. I don’t know. I could see if I could use a mandrel in some way. I’m a bit confused about the whole thing. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
