Knots have been around for thousands of years – even Neolithic
man tied the reef knot, clove hitch and running noose. There are
several thousand knots in existence and an almost infinite number
of variations. This reference manual and practical handbook
presents over 200 of the most essential knots. All the key knot
types are covered, including bends, hitches, bindings, loops, mats,
plaits, rings and slings. You will find familiar knots, such as the
simple overhand or thumb knot, and more challenging knots such as
the seizing bend, boom hitch, Chinese button knot and variations of
the square Turk’s head. Each set of instructions is accompanied
by photographs taking you through every step of tying the knot.
Includes a clear guide to the variety of cords and ropes; their
breaking strengths, construction and application. Each one is
clearly identified by its category of use: angling and fishing;
boating and sailing; caving and climbing; and general purpose and
outdoor pursuits, with easy-reference symbols denoting each
knot’s use at the top of each page. Whether you are an eager
beginner or a lifelong devotee of knot-tying, this will prove an
absorbing and indispensable guide.
