Ship, Other Veteran Tyers...................do ya'll usually finish with a whip finish or half hitches? Can multiple half hitches (with enough cement) be just as good as a whip finish?

using half hitches has always served me well, especially when you seal the wrap with nail polish or sealer.

I use what I call The Butcher's Knot. It was taught to me by the guy that taught me to be a butcher. You can tie it with one hand and the harder you pull it the tighter it gets. We used it to tie roast during the holidays. It is a neat little knot. People have tried to watch me tie it and then copy but even when I try to slow down they still dont get it...lol. After tying it a million+ times it's second nature to me, but others just cant get it...
