    You made me realize explaining the knot is almost as important as execution. learned during high angle training that dressing the knot is important for showing a court i can tie but your ability to explain what was done is second to none. Thanks!

    Thank you Sir! I've been practicing and improving. Your videos clear, succinct, and provide straightforward instruction for the lesson at hand. One can tell that you have taught before. I built my first lean-to with no practice and it kept my firewood dry in a northern Michigan downpour. I only relied on my memory of the instructional videos you produced and it worked exactly as you described. Keep up the great work! Thanks again

  • @rodidlewild2330
    @rodidlewild2330 7 років тому +42

    Excellent Sir. Well done. If I may, another great use for the Alpine Butterfly loop is to use it to quickly isolate a damaged section of your rope. Just make the damaged rope part of the loop, dress and tighten normally. You now have the damaged part of the rope isolated in the loop and your rope is back to normal use and strength.

    • @BobWidlefish
      @BobWidlefish 4 роки тому +6

      *@Rod Idlewild* I think that’s a great idea, though I’m pretty sure the rope would be weaker than full strength because of the knot. If you see people doing hydraulic stress tests of rope they tend to break at specific locations within the various knots because of how the knot applies increasingly severe stress on particular spots as they tighten under load. I’m definitely not knocking your idea, I think it’s great! Though I don’t think it’s full strength, it’s reduced to whatever the break strength of the knot is, which I think for the alpine butterfly is something like 75% of the rope strength. The channel alanleeknots has some knot tests published. Cheers!

    • @tylercheney784
      @tylercheney784 4 роки тому

  • @TheDirtyLicker
    @TheDirtyLicker 3 роки тому

    I was tying loops at the end of my cordage completely wrong and the knots were fusing together so bad I had to cut them the figure 8 totally fixed that. I also "knew" how to tie a mid-line butterfly loop until I watched this video now I KNOW how to tie a butterfly loop with a much easier simpler method. When tying a bowline I would end up with the cowboy version sometimes until I followed your steps to ensure I am making the marlinspike hitch lay the proper direction and pass the line through the proper side and direction. Very good work sir!

    @williamokrasinski9840 3 роки тому

    Thank you CC for the instructions. I never knew there was another easier way for a bowline. I learned the rabbit hole tree method. Yours is much easier. Also the Alpine butterfly is very handy as I always tied a bowline for a midline loop to chinch down a load, but always had to use much excess line for the rabbit end to finish the loop. The midline loop is much easier anywhere on the line and fantastic. Ooh Rah!

    I love the knots you showed us and have saved the video to practice with later on and eventually put into use in the field. It would have been great if the Air Force had taught all of us how to use rope to do that, but they didn't and I am now retired and have the time, and material and want to use it for camping out. The knowledge you are giving us is so valuable and helpful in many situations and I thank you so much for sharing it.

  • @HobbitHomes263
    @HobbitHomes263 5 років тому +1

    When I was guiding and packing supplies for the USFS I'd use the mid-line loop on my "high-line. When ot was time to set up camp a long 1/2 inch rope was stretched about 6 feet off the ground between trees. The high-line is tied up using the same knots you use for a tarp ridgeline. bowlin on one end and Dutchman (trucker's hitch( on the other. The mid-line loops one per mule can still get pulled pretty tight it they pull back while tied up. The high line helps keep the lead rope high so the animal can't get a leg over it To keep the loop from getting too tight I cut a chunk of half inch sapling and slip it under the loop before dressing the knot down. When I got ready to pack out in the morning, I could just pull that toggle and the knot came out slick as ya please. Thanks for what you do Corporal! Carry on ;)

    Hey Corporal: you inspired me. I think you can make the alpine butterfly even easier by wrapping in the order 1 3 2 to begin with rather than starting with 1 2 3 and moving 3 2. If you just wrap under your thumb on your left hand, then spaced out a little wrap again by the middle of the palm, then for the third wrap go between the two existing wraps. Now pull 3 over 2 and 1, under them and back out to form the loop as usual. I think it’s subjectively easier to learn and teach and also tie. Wrapping in the new order is necessarily faster than fiddling with two cords after doing the old three wraps. I learned to tie from you. Thank you! You are an excellent teacher and I’m in awe of your skills and knowledge! Have a great week!

    For some reason the bowline is a hard one for me to remember. It never clicks. Ive managed to get by with a figure 8 on a bite, a clove hitch and my prussics. However the alpine seemed a lot more difficult in the fire academy. Ive practiced it several times in real world scenarios and it was this video that made it “click”. Thank you Sir!
