    I just showed my son how to do this and now he's learning a new way haha love your videos Dave! 3 of my friends purchased Bushcraft 101 because I let them borrow mine, I started watching your videos shortly after my grandfather passed away. He was my original wealth of knowledge.

    Good stuff sir! I’ve been watching you videos for probably as long as you’ve been on UA-cam. The wealth of information that you share in itself is amazing, but what appreciate most about you Dave is your constant willingness to learn, evolve and share with the rest of us what you’ve learned or implemented. That’s speaks volumes to me. There are untold numbers of “experts” that offer one solution or one way of doing things and that’s it. That’s the one way to do it. I’ve watched you for at least a decade and it truly impresses me how open you are to new ideas and ways of doing things. I look forward to one day being able to attend a gathering.

    I learned the 6' hank from a gentlemen who I believe learned it from Dave Canterbury. I've carried 2-3 daily since then and found them incredibly useful.
    Over time, I made a few adjustments. A bit over a year ago, I integrated the toggle after watching Felix Immler's vid. As I carried them in my uniform cargo pocket, I found the bowline would come lose so after a lot of trials, I settled on the Scott's Locking bowline which is easy to untie but doesn't shake lose as I walk.
    The other change is in line with this video. I noticed I would get the same unwanted, overhand knot as I deployed the hank. Now, I'm not sure why this worked, but when I started placing the tag end under two (2) coils instead of one (1), the problem mostly stopped. Once in a blue moon it'll form a knot but it's been rare.
    Hope this helps.

    That's a cool idea! I always just made that half hitch at the end a slippery hh, but pulled it almost all the way through so that it was nestled between the last wrap and the 2nd to last wrap. Worked like a charm--everything stays in place and no knot at the end. Still, I'm eager to give this method a try; it might be faster :D

    Hello
    From Mexico.
    There is an easier way to finish without the extra knot.
    If the tail comes out on the opposite side of where you are going to pull, and you wind up where you are going to pull, the extra knot will not be tied.
    Try it.
    I really enjoy your videos.

    I'll hank longer ropes, but anything 6' and under, I won't. I hang a carabiner from a ridge line or branch and clip all the bowlines on there. Then I hold the carabiner and cross the whole bundle over pinky and thumb until it's completely taken up. Then I stuff it all into its pocket before removing my fingers. The carabiner is on the top and the zig zags mean it won't tangle. I have a separate carabiner for 1' and under, same setup though. Easy, tidy and fast

  • @motrock93b

    Great ideas. I experimented with finishing the wound tie off with a Clove Hitch.. I tried multiple times, and each time the cordage unwound tangle free with no additional stopper knot added. This probably is already common knowledge, but I just thought I'd share.

    Thanks for teaching and sharing all your wisdom Dave! I found another way to prevent this knot in the end. Instead of using a normal half hitch to finish of as you normally would, you just pass a bite through this half hitch instead of the end of the cord and this would result a knot-free line when you pull the loop side

    I appreciate the short form videos like this, quick tips can make a big difference and these shorter videos are great for during a lunch break. My one concern with this method is that I don’t like having all that excess on the end, especially for the hanks in my pocket. I’ll generally even pull down my bowline towards the wraps so it’s more in line with the other loops. I’ve also always used a clove hitch rather than a half hitch, not sure if that would be easier or harder to undo when pulling the cordage through but I can’t say I’ve ever had an extra knot as I was using it

    @blippypippins2615 Рік тому

    Love your videos Dave and all the excellent advice you give, I appreciate your creative mind in always trying to come up with new ways of doing things, I learn more from you playing around with stuff, there's just something about 'tinkering' that gets the creativity flowing and makes the whole process enjoyable.
    Try wrapping your hank from the opposite end from where you normally begin wrapping, that's all I did and I stopped getting that extra 'knot' when releasing my hank. I'm also left handed, so there might be some other feature about how I wrap my hank that isn't obvious and may be the real reason as to why this works for me, but that's literally all I started doing with my hanks after noticing this issue one day when I wrapped it wrong and couldn't figure out why the knot stopped appearing. Once I figured out why, I haven't had a knot appear after releasing since. It's literally the same hank you've always made before, the same way everyone does it, no tightening down on the end or playing with extra loops, and most importantly no extra knots. Hope this helps someone, I don't know why this works for me, but it does.
    TLDR: Wrap your hank like you always do, but when you begin to wrap around the hank you've created with the loops to lock it down, simply start wrapping from the opposite end you're use to wrapping from if you usually get a knot and that final new knot should stop appearing, it did for me, and I've been doing my hanks like this for about two years now without a single knot since, no one would ever visually notice a difference between my hanks and the hanks everyone else does, you use them exactly the same way, but there's no new knot at the end, no idea what the science behind this is or why it works, it just does.
    TIP: One point that might be worth mentioning, is that by doing it this way, the loops wants to unravel itself naturally, after you do it a few times, you'll probably see what I mean, so when I do my first wrap around the hank, I continue the second wrap over the loop I just made on the first loop and pull on it tight (so they cross each other) and then continue wrapping around the hank in the normal direction, this 'locks' the start of the wrap down on the hank.
    If you do it right, everything I'm saying should make sense, sorry I've never been really good at explaining things, but I promise this works and your hanks are virtually no different from before, except without the extra knot at the end when you unravel it.
    TIE KNOTS LIKE A LEFTY! If you're having a hard time figuring out how knots work, I'm talking about the 'magic' that is knots, start doing them reversed, as if you were left handed and you'll get a whole new understanding of knots and begin to truly understand them inside and out. Seriously, give it a try, it's frustrating, but you learn really hard to notice points about creating knots and can then really play with them, give it a try if you haven't already - All you lefties know what I mean already. All the knot videos are made by right handed people (pretty much) and it takes someone who is left handed much longer to figure out the knot, but when they do, they truly understand that knot, it's not just mimicking and using muscle memory, you really do learn the ins and outs of that knot, you have no choice, you end up feeling like a 'knot engineer', it's probably how the people who made these knots felt, they truly understood what they were doing. I'm guessing you get this kind of understanding with time and experience as well, but as a lefty trying to learn in a right-handed world, you're forced to become that engineer on every knot right from the word 'go'.

    I’ve been starting my hanks with the tag ends of doubled over cordage, bundle it with same figure 8 and wrap, pull the finishing loop through the bundle of loops and attach carabiner to that individual loop.
    I haven’t tried with a quick deploy ridge line but it seems to do well for keeping my cordage neat

  • @biranit50
    @biranit50 7 місяців тому

    This idea is nice BUT you cannot release only part of the keeping the rest of the line nicely packed as with the old half hitch method. My idea to enjoy both advantages : instead of a regular half hitch use a quick release half hitch, tucking a bite under the last turn instead of the end of the line!

  • @MVBriscoVolante
    @MVBriscoVolante Рік тому +1

    Interesting method but still requires an extra step. The way to alleviate the extra knot is to use a clove hitch instead of a half hitch and the coils coming out won’t make a space. When you get to the end just wrap an x around the hank and push the stopper knot through it and tighten. A way to make sure it’s not too tight to pass the end through is to save enough at the end to wrap the X around both the hank and your finger, then slip your finger out, insert and tighten down

  • @bjbackitis
    @bjbackitis Рік тому +3

    Sorry, sir... have to disagree with you on this one. That larger loop hanging out at the end is a show-stopper for me, especially for my utility cord I carry in my pocket. Plus I never EVER have a problem with a knot at the end like you demonstrate, because at the end instead of passing the tail through the last loop coming out towards the end of the hank, I pass the tail through so it's coming back towards the beginning. Just change that direction of how you pass the tail through when securing the end and the knot goes away. Okay, technically not a correct half-hitch as a result but it works just as well for me and no knots when pulling it out. Much better than having that extra large loop to fuss with. Learned this one from my father (E-6, 1st Marine Division, Korea 1951-1953). 73 de BJ, KM4RB

    I've always hanked my cordage in this basic manner, but I don't have a stop knot in the end, usually. The reason I don't have the stop knot is because I stick the end of the rope all the way through before I cinch one of the coils down on it and if I tried to pull it out at that point the knot would hang up. It never occurred to me to make a bite and then stick that through the coils, so, great tip! I also try to form my final loop shorter than the others so that when I cinch it down it doesn't hang out too far beyond the other coils. More for looks than practicality.
