Knots and cordage are all through his playlists but if you look where they are most likely to be found you can build your own playlist and combine it with other youtuber Pathfinder school instuctors or other videos that you like. I have been putting things like this together for awhile as videos come out and they are very helpful as I can add descriptions of what is covered and even put in playback spots so I can get right to the relevant info that I need. I hope this helps.
Awesome knots! While camping, I usually fall back on knots I learned on my uncle's fruit farm. The bowline and the way he tied down apple boxes and cherry tanks to a flatbed, he called it the fruitfarmer's knot. I don't know a more common name for the latter, but you fasten one end with a bowline, throw the other end over the load, make a loop, give it a couple twists, pull a loop through the loop from the twists, run the free end around what you're tying onto, put the free end through the second loop, pull down with all your might and tie an overhand knot with a loop to keep the whole thing tight so you can give the end a tug and free it all up when you get to where you're going. Now they use ratchet straps. But I still use the fruitgrower's knot when I cinch down on tent stakes.
Thanks for this video Dave. Knowing how to make these different type of knots are one of the most important things to know and learn. It is great to have someone like you taking the time to show all of us how to make and use them.
I do knot want to be that guy who makes a play on words about this.. Every time Dave Canterbury uploads I feel like I've won the information lottery, so thanks Dave this is yet another really useful video about a very useful knot that I need to learn so thank you.
Wow what a awesome video!! Very impressive knots can't believe what I was seen.I'm amazed at the time my boots in the morning without learning these knots!!
Great video sir!!!! I've been learning and practicing some knots daily. Glad to see this one come up in my feed. One more for the toolbelt. Thank you!!!
Interesting. The second turn through the loop on the timber hitch can also be used on the truckers hitch to hold the pull so you don't lose what you gained in the pull. I'm guessing one can slip the half hitch in the Crowley knot for ease of release.
I've found the round turn only becomes self locking with paracord. I've tried it with various sizes and types of bankline as well as other cordage and I can only ever get it to work reliably with paracord.
I'm knot kidding - that was cool. When he said, "And that's smart" I thought about almost everything I've ever learned from this guy, and realized that it's all been pretty danged useful - ie, "smart." 👍🏻
Hello everyone from Belarus. Peace to you! Thanks for the nice video on knots, I loved it. I have a similar video on content, if you are interested you can take a look.
Awesome vid! The first would work great with a short peice of sash! Btw.... What were those wooden things in the background on the top right of the screen next to the camo plank???
I have used the Crowley Hitch many times, and never knew it was an official, named thing. I've also used the the second hitch a lot, but I've always called it a "Rolling Timber Hitch." Maybe I'm wrong on that name though.
I made a couple spring traps. They were set off the next morning with critters??? Can you do trouble shooting on these traps as to why they don’t catch sometimes
I believe Dave answered this in the past as: perseverancesurvival.com/bags They still have woobie hoodies but the woobie jackets are listed as sold out. You would have liked the Tiger Striped one.
