Great! Now you know the secrets of this knot. These knots are absolutely safe, reliable and practical, you must know these knots, you must always create perfection for yourself.
I remember from rigging lessons in lineman apprenticeship that certain knots have a load value, as compared to the load value of the rope. Usually it's significantly less. It would be helpful to include those knot vs. rope values so folks don't go past the SWL, simply because the original rope value is higher. Not understanding those values could lead to catastrophic failure under load.
#1 is a mexican hatchet knot, never use that. #2&4 are quick release knots, not acceptable for loads. use for storing gear, ropes, tying up horses etc. #3 is an easy adjust bowline on the bite. it is the only knot here i would put a load on.
@@GozonTheGonsarian lmao ! I agree, though a round turn with two half hitches is safest. That still doesn't include the ratings. Truckers hitch is a good one for tiedowns.
im an Able bodied seaman .AB for short..the true test of a knot; is uf you can bet your life on it ..We sailors bet our lives on ropes and knots on a daily basis and i can safely say these fancy knots with even fancier names on youtube are not just useless but also deadly . A bowline a timber hitch and a good old eight knot will see you through safely
Yeah when in doubt tie a bowline. I’m a sailor 1st class in the canadian navy and the number of time i tied a bowline i can just do it one handed eyes close now.
Going around any type of tree or pole I always use a clove hitch with a half hitch backup. To hang anything from a rope I’ll typically use a bowline. Works well for me, might “knot” be right for someone else though.
1:30 Knot #3 isn’t a clove hitch because one is a left hand turn and the other is a right hand turn. It’s close to an alpine butterfly, but in an alpine butterfly, the turns cross through each other. I don’t ever see a reason to use this over an alpine butterfly, which is probably always better
Claims the video is about knots, then proceeds to show a series of hitches and bends. Then, to top it off, the first one which appears to be a timber hitch is made incorrectly!
I have used that first knot, which is a timber line hitch, for over 50 years. It was used in logging before steel cables were involved for pulling logs up a hill by horses.
That's not a timber hitch. He's wrapped it around the wrong portion of the rope for a timber hitch. The running end goes around the standing end and then wraps around itself. Not sure what to call what he tied - it's not a knot at all, simply a twisted piece of rope. A couple of load/unload cycles will cause it to fall apart.
@@wendyandwalter40 Exactly. RU-vid is rife with amateurs. Good luck undoing that knot after it’s had a load on it. A hatchet knot if ever I’ve seen one. That’s what you’d need to undo it.
@@andrewcameron1346 another way to untie is to bore cut through the chunk of wood about 10 or 12 times without nicking your precious rope. ask me how i know. lol. one of those knots you only tie wrong once.
Everyone is asking for names... This is fairly difficult since a lot of knots have like 70,000 names. The only knots that have consistent names (and even then still have different names) are knots documented in the ABoK.
The first one is a bad version of a loggers hitch. The tail goes the other way. That will only tighten under load. Second one is virtually useless. Third one is a picket line hitch Fourth one is useless under load. Try pottery.
The knots’ usages are painfully obvious. The names are not important to an audience spread out across the globe. If it makes you feel better, the first is known as a Timber Hitch. The second is essentially a quick release version. The third is an Alpine or Butterfly Knot variant. Please tell me you can figure out its use. The fourth is a Highwayman’s Hitch.
The second one is an evenk hitch...its uses are in my case for attaching to fork truck when I am dragging pallets off a lorry.ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-GF4qXlRbbmg.html
The last one you tied is a bowline with a quick release. If you hold both sides of the quick release end away from the knot, it opens it up and you can adjust the size of the bowline by pulling the working end through the sheet bend. It holds fast as soon as you let go. A very handy added feature to everyone's favorite knot, the bowline.
HOLA disculpa como podría hacer un nudo fácil de des-amarrar pero que sea lo suficiente mente fuerte para LEVANTAR un PALO grande GRUESO, que tiene una presión a los costados (por la presion de 1 tonelada ) y elevar el palo con al cuerda de forma horizontal (arriba) 🙏
It's funny to me, that you feel the need to point where you're about to put the rope... as if the viewer is looking up off to the right of the screen or something 😂 Cool knots man! Good job
I always watch these at 2 times speed (in settings of the video). Makes the music sound better and saves time on those vids that aren't so great. Cheers.
these are not climbing knots! you should be clear about what they are "safe, reliable and practical" for. one is useless, two are good for hanging gear or light duty jobs and the butterfly knot is something most people would never use but it is a good knot to know just be clear about what they are used for.
Very well filmed and clear and precise. I must give this a √ like. Shame there was no commentary and the chosen background track totally inappropriate - kick that drummer out the door he's irrelevant and distracting!
Hmm a timber hitch, not a knot. Used a lot in the forestry industry. I used it working on log booms, tightening the boom so log bundles don't go astray.
Если у этого"мастера" люди будут учиться, людей станет меньше. У меня, хотя и мытые много раз, но грязные шершавые руки, а у этого инструктора руки, как у девочки-содержанки
He’s using a half hitch to grab onto a bight. So in that sense it like a sheepshank that he using as a hitch. However his half hitch is unturned half way and it looks to me as though it is ready to collapse. I wouldn’t trust this thing the way it is shown here.
First one is dangerous second one is more useful than you give it credit....but it's not done in a good way....the knot /twist has to be at the back of the pole.
@@jamesbrown99991 ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-usV-y5HVBjo.html Not if you use it correctly... This is how I use it... Now tell me that is a weak hitch and I will ask you to prove me wrong...I have used this to drag over 2000lb
