usually I have seen the knot is tightened in the hole with one thread front and one thread back..then trim those and the knot shows a little in the back ..use a lighter to seal the short threads???

To me it looks like one thread used for both sides. Knot tied under the flap, then flap glued down.

How would you tie the knot? Just a square knot ? So sorry I am new to hand sewing except for skin, intestines, arteries and veins as I am a vascular surgeon. New to the leather thing and only doing this for a year or so. Good thing is the leather does not need anesthesia!

Thanks for your patience and answers.

Thanks so much. I guess I was thinking it was more complicated!

Have a great night!
