if you have a new rope as well as new hitch cord if is bound to slip a little but with slight wear it will soon bind enough i always use a knut but depends on your own preference how many wrap you want trial and error

As Nathan says, it'll be a bit slippery as the ropes are slick. Weirdly I use a Knut on main line with the wrench and its fine, i also use a Knut on my strop with a pinto and can hardly move it some days! Play around with knots that suit you. The knot directory is great

Put the pursue cord on a quick wash cycle with a little detergent, to take the shiny ness off , they always do slip a bit when new

I got 10mm op and couldnt get it to grip on 13mm for love nor money, 8mm on the otherhand no problem at all

i use 10mm on my tach. i recommend getting some cord and cutting it when you find the right length and knot you want to use . i have a vt with 3 wraps and 4 braids its quite long but it grips reliably and works exactly how i want it. problem with eye to eyes is that you cant fine tune your setup.
