    Monkey Fist? Isnt that a popular local band? No? Well it should be!
    My determination to not strike the first blow, but also to not stand mute and allow myself, and all that I believe in and stand for, to be trampled by men who would deprive me of my God-given, or natural right to suit my own end.

    Bonus points for knowing what the MF was originally used for.

    Now tie a turk's head.

    Throwing ropes longer distances. Tie a Turk's head in the middle for added weight.

    Aren't we fast on the keyboard.

    Technically, the MF was used on the end of a heaving line. Contrary to the second link, it could be weighted.

    The turk's head is for a completely different use.

    I read it about it in a third link that I didn't bother to post.

    I got put in charge of the knot tying station at a cub scout event once. I had 30 minutes to learn how to tie a monkey fist so I could then teach the kids. I got really good at it after about 4 hours.

    I just roll my rope in a ball. Would that be a monkey ball?
