Hi John,

I think 'locked' and 'modified' (and 'mobius', no doubt, as well) are all different names for making a Brummel when you only have one end of the line to play with. What I like to do is brummel, bury, then simply put a whipping around the throat. Keeps things tidy, since I've seen the bury start to wiggle its way out downstream of the brummel. This on lines that get flopped around a lot. Brummel stays tight, bury moves a little. If you're whipping anyway, then the Brummel is kind of overkill, but I like to do it anyway. I rarely bother lockstitching along the bury, though.
