I did some looking today on knots, like the double and triple surgeon. I stumbled on the blood knot loop. I like the size of it. I think I may re-shoot the wishbone video.
An interesting note on Dyneema. I was watching "Future Weapons" (I love that show) and they were talking about making armor for a Zodiac. Steel is to heavy of course. They said Dyneema is the strongest synthetic fiber. I did not know this. They made plates out of the stuff. They shot a 1/4" steel plate with a 7.62x39 round and it penetrated. They shot the Dyneema plate and it just deformed it, did not penatrate and it broke up the round. So I guess if I'm getting shot at I can stop the bullets with this cord! (kidding of course)
