    A very universal knot. Hopefully a lot of men will spend time with their sons and daughters learning some this and all you do. Thanks again.

    In 53 years of Scouting, the Tautline is my favorite knot. This modification on the standard tautline is very cool.

      Agreed. I probably used a taut line hitch more than any of the other basic Scout knots (except maybe the bowline). But I found it tended to slip in nylon cord. Dan's mod looks like it'll fix that.

    Thank you for showing this knot. Just a suggestion: if you leave a loop including the cut end it would be easier to release

      @@jackvoss5841 Me too. One other modification that I do like to the tautline hitch is to run a bite (loop / bunny ear) through the last pass -- it still holds well, but just tug on the loose end and it comes apart as easily as my shoe laces.

    I watch a lot of videos about different knots, so much so I feel like an expert. However as soon as I get into the field my brain melts and I end up with something that.... erm... I`m not sure what it is, but it holds. I call it a noob knot.

      @outnabout6966 24 дні тому

      fonimer - there’s videos on here describing and demonstrating the “adjustable grip hitch”. lt takes some practice in finishing and snugging it up. Once you catch on to how it works it holds better than the taut line hitch. Its not hard.

    I'm a retired fireman and I hated ropes and nuts.Absolutely.Hated him.Anyway we used to have a special knot in the fire service called TAL That's short for tie a lot. Also, we were trained with ropes and knots.And a Knot isn't a knot until there's a safety knot at the end It's a little joke any firemen will know what i'm talking about

  • @martinhafner2201
    @martinhafner2201 Місяць тому

    I'm not fond of single end loading prusik knots. They tend to get soft and sloppy because they are made for double line load. It would be better to use one of the inherently single line friction hitches like blake's hitch, adjustable grip hitch, camel hitch or tarbuck hitch.
