Ok, I finished work before noon today because of a power outage. the outside temperature is too high to stay indoors (no aircon), so I bought some rope and a cast iron ball and made my first ever Monkey Fist knot.
It's fairly heavy, I guess 150-200 gram. :yeh: :yeh:

-Looped (length 1 meter)

-Unlooped (length 2 meter)

-Uhm.. the knot..

-For comparison, the Leatherman Charge TTi

200 gram is 0.44 lb (or 7 oz)
It's basically a paracord wrapped tightly around a iron ball, good for decoration, as a weight, or as weapon xD

Yeah looks like a weapon to me. Cool though.

Hockey ball? I know of hockey pucks but not balls. What is this?

In Europe we play hockey on grass, not on ice, hence the ball.

Oh, I've heard of field hockey. I thought it was just something they let grade school kids play though.
