I've received a couple of ukes in the recent past where the string connection arrangement at the headstock included some type of knot on the string posts, so when you go to restring, it's a real PIA (to me), requiring me to loosen it with a tiny jewelers screwdriver, just to undo that knot. That spells danger to me, sharp tools digging knots near a pretty headstock.
I've always used a method I've seen on an HMS video, Aaron, I think, whereby you go through the post hole, then the 1st wrap goes over the string, then all the other wraps under the string. This squeezes the string end between the first 2 wraps, and prevents slippage.
What's your method?
