    How to tie a clove hitch? Where to use the Clove Hitch? And WHY tie a clove hitch? All questions answered in this video. The Clove hitch knot is an incredible one for bushcraft, survival, prepping, and utility uses.
    You can tie it with paracord, or pretty much any type of cordage. If the rope is slippery, use the Constrictor Knot variation. My favourite variation is the Clove hitch with a bight slipped through, or in other-words the quick release handle clove hitch!

    Hey DJ, I'm a fellow knot nut. Great video! I'd like to add that you can slip the constrictor knot as well so that you don't have to cut it to remove it. In my experience, this doesn't compromise the knot's security.

    Interesting - in climbing (in the UK at least), we use a clove hitch on the bight to tie into anchors. Because it’s in the middle of the line, of course, it can’t shake loose.

  • @sgringo
    @sgringo 3 місяці тому

    I KNEW that the final variation had to be the constrictor knot. I learned it many years ago from the classic Morrow's Book of Knots. Like Bear said, it absolutely won't slip (unless you use it on something square, like a 2x4), yet you can make it constrict tighter by pulling harder on the two ends. You're limited only by your physical strength.
    Once you learn it, you'll find all sorts of unexpected uses for it. I'm using one right now on an adjustable guitar stand. The stand has an adjustment handle. When you squeeze it, it locks in place and exerts constant pressure on the stand's sliding mechanism to maintain the height adjustment. Unfortunately, a piece of the handle broke, preventing the sliding mechanism from being locked in place. So, I used camping cord and a constrictor knot to squeeze the handle to maintain the pressure necessary to lock the sliding mechanism in place.
    This was a perfect application for the constrictor; I know of no other way I could have fixed it, and I doubt any other knot could have been cinched tightly enough to maintain the necessary pressure.

  • @soulstromsoulstrom7562
    @soulstromsoulstrom7562 Місяць тому

    If you are having trouble with a clove hitch coming undone, you may be using it for the wrong application/ The clove hitch started out as knot used by sailors to tie off a boat to a piling that hols up a dock. Over the years it has been repurposed for everything else. It needs tension or weight kept on it to be secure. When hauling logs in the water, a clove hitch at the mid point on the log, and a half hitch at the end of the log being towed would keep the tension on the clove hitch and prevent it from slipping.
    the constrictor knot that you demonstrated, is also known a strangle knot. It has such a strong mechanical advantage, that if enough weight/load is put on it, you will have to cut the line to free it.

      For use around campsite, there are a few options, one is the popular 550 paracord, but online there are cheap and good ones - and very tough to decipher which is which.
