Will a Castwell knot......

[Whitewolf]

Thank you John. I tend to go along with your thoughts. The Castwell knot is indeed closing up on boaf flexible lines....not a hard ring.
Didn't think of that....well I think I sort of did because I had my doubts and asked.
I just purchased and received a Knot Kneedle tool. I think it will be good for knots.
Thank you John

I just use a clinch know to secure tippet to a tippet ring. Been doing that for decades now.

There are better options for attaching a ring to a furled leader than clinch knot which by the way I use all the time for most other applications.
Do a search on this site for Attaching rings to furled leaders." Sorry I don't know how to create a link. This method in my opinion is even stronger
and easier than building the ring into the furling process.

I have the Knot Kneedle & LOVE it!...So does my 87 year old fishin' buddy. There's nothing close when tying clinch & improved clinch knots.
You made a great purchase. (just my opinion)
