Half Windsor.
If I rock a full cutaway, Windsor.
There are some rules about face shape and physique, I don't follow them. Same with skin color

All depends on the situation, the shirt collar, and how I'm feeling.
In general though, I prefer the Windsor. For casual, double four-in-hand.

cosign Mike5055's windsor/four-in-hand combo. Unless you have a really narrow face, the windsor is your best bet and a very traditional knot. If the knot is getting too large, try a thinner tie (not necessarily narrower like a skinny tie, but one with thinner fabric and less padding). The four in hand is easier with a casual jacket and looks more in place if being worn with a partially unbuttoned shirt.

Half Windsor with a nice dimple for regular ties.
Four in hand for slim ties.
