Going to teach 13 and 11 yr old granddaughters to tie knots this summer vacation after the Covid19 epidemic. This is a great introduction so we all know what terms to use. I'm hoping I can fish and not tie on hooks and lures all day long and that I won't have to run all over the boat to tie us up to the dock or buoys. I know this is for paracord users, but these young girls may want to climb or maybe use these knots when they go camping with Mom and Dad. Thanks for a great overview of knots and for helping direct my teaching more systematically. A great video and audio, easy to follow and take notes for future use. Thank you.
Since my last post I've purchased The Ashley Book of Knots. This is what discovered: The Working End (AKA: Bitter End), the Bight (middle part of rope) and Standing End (AKA: Standing Part) are the parts of a rope or cord. A Bight is no more than a semicircle. At 1:28 you call it a bight but it is a Loop. A Loop is almost closed but the ends do not touch. A Closed Loop is brings the end together but do not cross. A Turn brings the ends together and they cross. See ABK page 13. Diagrams 27 through 32.
Yep, this video was just an overview for people who want to understand the basic knot types. We cover individual knots in their own videos. You can find the playlist here: ua-cam.com/play/PL6SUXwH4RA_qetijAd3TO2RGLanyZLPW6.html Hope that helps!

Thanks for this information. I do me mechanical work and this help me alot when it comes to lifting parts ect.
Brilliant video, thanks.
Nice simple explanation of terminology. Maybe you can think of bend as b-end or both ends. lol
I have seen two ropes spliced to one at one end, but can't find how it was done. Any advice?
Try using the method described in this video and let us know if it helps: ua-cam.com/video/CDRJGvbQLxM/v-deo.html. 🪐
Thanks sir we have test for this in scout and guide
Good job very good video
Scouts BSA also uses lashings.
Would have been nice to see how they were made.. :), but none the less awesome info.
Thank you
i was hoping to hear about the “bitter end” and what the “middle” of a rope is called.
Details of each of each knot not being shown was why I left not learning how to properly do each
I should listen to someone who doesn't bother to fuse the end of his paracord?
Who is watching this for school?
Bends ---> Both ENDS
Genius

Lost me at 30 seconds with the jargon "paracord', and I left then.
Too bad because he immediately explains very clearly what paracord is.
