Knotting tool

[Mike-Connor]

I can't remember whether I have posted this here before or not. Anyway, it is quite useful for a number of things. Here's how it works:

This is the tool, it is actually a baiting needle;

A crochet hook is too coarse, and wont work for knotting pheasant tail fibres etc.

One may also buy the blank needles and fit them to a handle.

Also some luxury models;

The Cortland splicing tool is basically the same thing;

a gate latch hook.

Of course it is also really good for splicing braid and stuff like that too!
