Where can I learn how to....

Tie those fancy knots. The ones that are tied to the butt end of some knives? And what are the names of those knots?

I just call them lanyards or lanyard knots, although I'm sure there are more specific names for them.

Here's a link to a page on the Chris Reeve site with a diagram of how to tie the knot that comes on a Sebenza lanyard:

Thanx for the links! I tried to make the Monkey's fist and that was a major disaster, I ended up with a piece of rope I could not untie
