J.D. Lenzen is the creator of the highly acclaimed YouTube channel ”Tying It All Together”, and the producer of over 200 instructional videos. He’s been formally recognized by the International Guild of Knot Tyers (IGKT) for his contributions to knotting, and is the originator of fusion knotting–the creation of innovative knots through the merging of different knot elements or knotting techniques. Paracord Fusion Ties – Volume 1 is the first of a multiple volume set of books exclusively utilizing paracord for his fusion knotting techniques.
Originally used as parachute suspension lines during World War II, paracord has since become a means to create an immeasurable variety of useful items, survival tools, and decorative ties. World-renowned for his knotting and tying skills, Lenzen guides readers through 35 different paracord fusion ties, all of which have never been presented in book form before. By way of over 800 crisp, clear, full-color photographs, coupled with succinctly written, easy to follow step-by-step instructions, he will show you how to create spherical ties, bars and bracelets, key fobs, medallions, straps, rapid deployment ties, falls, and more.
A book for young and old, expert knot tyers and novices alike, Paracord Fusion Ties – Volume 1 is a must for every knot enthusiast’s library!
