The Tie Stick

This is a handy tool. Super glue fastens a straight back razor blade to a 4" -- 6" soft sculpture needle, with the needle held tight (like a bodkin) in a pin vise. Tie Stick When tightening up a whip finish knot you can guide the knot back to the shank of hook with the point of the needle. Once tightened, you can then cut the tag end of the thread off by pressing the edge of the razor blade against the base of the tightened thread --without cutting anything else.
Good tools that don't cost much are hard to beat.
