If my tie is too long I windsor knot it... if it's still too long I double windsor knot it!
It is in truth not for glory, nor riches, nor honours that we are fighting, but for freedom -- for that alone, which no honest man gives up but with life itself.

I always tend to use a Full Windsor knot on my ties. When I wore suits to work the fashion of the day was for a Half Windsor, I do however prefer the Full Windsor especially kilted.

My father taught me the way to tie a tie was the full Windsor. It wasn't until much later that learned of the other methods. At the time I thought the other guys were just being lazy. I still wear the Full Windsor almost every time.
