I make those the lazy way.
-Make the eye just like a normal splice by pulling the end back into the core.
-Then cut both the inner and outer core at the same time at the desired length.
-Burn the ends together so that it kind of forms a little stub.
-Then just put a single of figure eight knot in and you are done.
IMHO the Turk knot in the expensive version is just for show.
I just tried Tony's method. Duh. Doesn't look as good as a turk knot, but works just fine and it's way way way quicker to make. I don't think I'm going to do a turk knot again! Thanks!
