...added a 25mm liquid filled compass encased in a paracord fob to my necklace kit.


knot is called a footrope knot. looks much like the doubled two strand diamond knots i used as knobs on the firesteel and magnesium.

Nice work. Any chance of getting some info (instructions) on that footrope knot?

Dangit! I just returned the Ashley's knot bible.
The diamond knot is really just a turks plait that's been squished, right?
Do you put anything in the middle of the knot?

It looks like one. However it is not. The diamond is a lanyard knot that can be made with any number of strands. Process differs when using only two and it has other names like lanyard knot and boatswains whistle knot
