Square Knot (Reef Knot)
Clove Hitch (Builder's Hitch, Tied in a bight, and at an end)
Sheet Bend (And Double Sheet Bend)
Bowline (Tied two ways)
Figure 8 loop (Tied 3 ways)
Round Turn + Two 1/2 Hitches

I was a boy scout and learning to tie knots was one of those things I still remember fairly well!! My grand daughter (age 12 at the time) would play with my neighbors grand daughter (again too she was 12 years old also) and I was telling the two girls that in boy scouts we learned how to tie knots!! The neighbors gand daughter is kind of a smart ass, and she told me "You couldn't tie me up to that telephone pole over there (in front of her grand parents house) and for about any hour told me "You don't know how to tie knots!" being a little turd about it!! Keep in mind too that I KNOW her grandparents well, I have lived across the street from them for about 16 years now and we are (socially) the type of neighborhood where we all talk and hang out together......so they know me as well as I know them!! Long story short though after about two hours of her "daring me" to tie her to the telephone pole I finally told her "come here" and I knocked on her grandparents door, I informed her grandfather of WHAT I was doing and why and he looked at her and smiled and said "She's been a handful all day!"!!!! I tied the child to the telephone pole and walked away!! Twenty minutes later her grandfather comes out looks at her and says "Have you had enough yet?" as she struggled to break free!! And final after about a half hour I walked back across the street and untied her setting her free!! Who knew that it wouldn't end there!! You see after all this now almost ten years later the same kid comes to my house while visiting her grand parents, like usual to visit with my grand daughter when they are both around!! BUT a few times she has come to my home as I am sitting outside just to talk to me and last summer out of the blue she asked me "What knot or knots did you use to tie me to the telephone pole that one time?" and she then tells me she wants to tie up her little sister......who as you can guess is now a 12 year old pest that won't just "drop things" when you tell her "NO"!!! LMAO!!

I used the figure 8 loops today. Easy to follow video with the two different colors of cords and quick links to the different knots. Thank you.
This is a good list. These are all knots I used on repeat when I was in the military and now on the farm and in everyday life. (And when hiking, camping, boating, etc.) I'm always surprised at how so many folks just don't even know the reef knot. I suppose I would add one of the fishing knots as well, perhaps. And then there are a lot of refinements, in particular how to cleanly stow the loose end, how to make most knots super secure but easily undone, and applications combining these knots, but all that comes with experience.
What's the best knot to use to securely tie someone to a chair? Please let me know quickly - they are about to regain consciousness. Joking aside, very helpful video, good clear demonstrations. Thankyou.

Believe it or knot(lol), my cub scout leader was married to a Marine. One night while at a camping sleep out, He taught our group these knots and a few more. When I was in Basic training (I had been studying magic for more than 10 years.) One of our instructors (T.I's) was teaching us how to tie knots. At one point I was instructed to tie the slip knot as trained. After tying the rope I proceeded to slip the knot up and down the rope. At the end of my smart ass demonstration, I slipped it off the end of the rope and tossed it to our instructor, asking if It looked right to him. "Surprisingly" he really cracked up... The only time I ever saw the T.I. show his human side. I loved basic training after that event:-) Found out later he served in the Navy before enlisting in the Air Force. What a guy! :-) -keith
Very good demo. The ropes were a good diameter to be able to see where it all went, and the contrasting colors when joining two ropes was helpful. Thank you.

I think he means sailing, with a motorboat pretty much all you need is the double hitch for moring. Camping though then the rest comes into play, that last one is aresome so you don't have to retie all your lines all the time because the lines or the fabric streches over time.

The taut line hitch is my favorite too. I have been using them for over 50 years and find it very useful and practical. I use it to secure ladders to my van, when strapping and securing cargo in a truck or trailer, and when camping for ridgelines and other lines that I want to be able to easily tighten up the slack.

Great video demonstration of very useful knots. I worked on offshore tugboats, and knots are essential for properly securing lines. Only rope on a boat is attached to the horn, everything else is line. By far, on iron workboats, most important is the bowline, and the clove hitch. It's essential to know at least 3 or 4 ways to tie a bowline quickly! The way demonstrated is by far the slowest way. You would only use that way for large line of 3" and up, when you don't have time to splice an eye. Another important thing is that the bowline DOES NOT BIND. Only under the highest stresses does one bind, and the line itself must have been put under so much strain that it literally fuses together. Extreme care must be taken when first learning, so that you do not accidentally make a slipknot. You're life could literally be on the line, and it could kill you or someone else if you screw this up. The most extreme case being with: 1. a french bowline (a double loop bowline) used to rescue someone overboard, and 2. the inability to remove the line from what it is tied to, resulting in the inability to allow the vessel to escape a hazard safely. Learn and practice, practice, practice. Sheet bend is great, quick way to secure a heaving line to a larger line. It is deceptively simple. For very small line(3/8") attaching to very large (4" and up), or pulling long distances (like up the side of a tanker) do everyone a favor and just tie the double sheet. For the love of all that is good, DO NOT TIE AN OVERHAND KNOT. you might get something heavy and metal thrown at you. Note: wear a hard hat :) The clove hitch is a good one, too. This is great for tying a fender off a hand rail, or securing anything temporarily. Key word temporary. It can be worked loose. Never trust your life to a clove hitch. Also, this is not to be used for side-loading. It will pull apart. Round turn and 2 half hitch. By far the strongest knot there is! A very important thing to realize is that, by tying ANY "knot" (quotations because some knots aren't knots at all, but are actually called binds), the strength of the line is reduced at the knot. Some knots reduce the line's strength by as much as 50%; another reason overhand knots are the worst ever. The round turn and 2 half hitch it the only one that does not reduce the line's strength at all. It can be side-loaded, as well. I would always throw a reverse half hitch to "lock off", and prevent any possibility to it pulling out. You can trust this knot. Never really use a figure 8 loop knot, always just went with the regular single overhand variety. you can use this knot as a sort of pulley, to increase the strain on a line. Great for securely tying something down, because you can get it tight tight, especially when used with 2 of these loops. First tie a secure knot using a bowline or round2hh (not a overhand... we seeing a pattern, yet?) then tie a loop somewhere in the middle, then go around something considered strong, then pass the line through the loop and pull down as tight as you need it. secure with 2 half hitches. I guess I passed the sissy test :)

Excellent production (as mentioned by others), and good choice of knots. A couple of suggestions: 1. Clove hitch - on a smooth object and subject to cyclic loading (eg a boat tied to mooring or tent fly) can work itself loose. A remedy is to tie-off the free end with a half hitch to the standing part. Alternatively use round turn and 2 half hitches where cyclic loads. 2. Taut-line hitch - you use high quality rope and this works fine. For lesser quality rope (& even for high quality), a slight variation of taking the second loop over the top of the first (instead of just around the rope) allows the knot to bind better, and gets the final closing half hitch closer and tighter

My teacher assigned this in a video to watch so me being me I just let it play out without actually watching it, but then at the very end she made us tell her all the knots in the video, and I wasn’t gonna re watch the whole thing, so this video got me a free grade, appreciate it bro .😆

Terrific. One of the top five knot videos I've seen. It's clear, easy to follow the steps. There are no 'step 1, step 2, step 60 - wait what?' I can do most of these, have alternates for the others (that are probably not as efficient, so I'll learn yours). These are the steps to learning knots as I understand them. 1. You know the ways knots and line are useful. (I once replaced a missing nut on a wheel of a handcart with a piece of string) 2. You have a basic idea of how to use them and can use them. (Like cinching down a load. We all make that double knot in the middle of the line. It works, but it's hard to get undone.) 3. We begin to learn the Basic Set of Knots. We learn these because they hold, they don't cause the rope to break, and they can be undone easily (If I'm ever kidnapped and left tied up, I hope it will be by a sailor. Cause then I can easily untie his/her knots). A basic knot that would be #8 in this video is the Alpine Butterfly. It replaces that overly tight double knot in the cinch. 4. We practice the basic knots until we can do them without thinking. (Deliberate practice. Just watch this video every day or so for a week or two while practicing. Then skip a few days, then skip a few weeks, then a month or two. Key to this process is being able to make the same knot the same way. Always dress them to make sure they are indeed correct. (I made some of these knots mirror imaged to the video. That's okay, it's the same knot. But make sure it is the same knot) 5. Practical application. Go out and tie stuff up. 6. Be able to look at the name of a knot, hear it called out, and instantly be able to make it. If you're going sailing with someone more experienced than you, you want to be able to instantly make the knot called out. I'm a beginning sailor, very beginning. But I know when I step on to the deck and a knot is called out I'll be able to do it. Instant credibility. I also think videos like this should start with at least a diagram that can be paused on showing the working end, a bight, a bend, etc... Finally learning what these are made knots more understandable for me.

Thank you! I never imagined that I would have a use for anything besides an overhand or a bow. I use most of these knots often.

TY for sharing this video. I am a crafter and can "see" myself using at least some of these knots in the macrame I do. (I do so many different crafts, and, these knots will be useful in many of them, really. ) I do appreciate your instructions.

Good luck brother!
I've worked with roped andknots for decades, in various jobs and pastimes; I i just clicked this out of curiosity. I have to say that it's excellent, as it does what it says on the tin; shows you how to tie 7 useful knots. It is very clear, both visually and audially, with the knots and methods of tying very clearly explained. I've only two criticisms -- 1:Athough innerbarkoutdoors "dresses" all the knots tied, he only metions it once, without any clarification ( when instructing,on ANYTHING, but especially when a half-learned lesson can be dangerous, NEVER take it for granted that all your class "gets" everything; 2:-- it would have been perfect if he had added (with a brief explanation) "all knots, expecially those that will have disatrous results if they fail, should be properly dressed AND pretensioned before using. But, as I said, all in all, an excellent tutorial.

Jay Igaboo agreed. But the viewer is responsible for educating themselves on the proper rope and knot required for a given situation. If a person relies solely on this video for a situation in which failure will have disastrous results, he or she is an idiot. A reasonable person will do their research on the correct rope specifications and knots when failure could have disastrous results.
I have been struggling with rope work for boats and sailing, and your video has helped immensely. It's great that you don't just show how to make the knot, but also include its application. A few more days of practicing each knot a few times, and I should be sorted. Thank you!

AWESOME video! I've been a sailor since 1977, and always worshiped at the alter of the Bowline. BUT...that figure 8 loop seems easier and quicker to tie for me for some reason, so...I LEARNED SOMETHING! Great job, you made at least one person's live better today!

But, like the Bowline, can it be untied while under a load?
@innerbarkoutdoors

No, it holds steady while under load which is why it's used in climbing so much.
Very much helpful and appreciated!

You can cut this down to the clove hitch, bowline, and taught line. Really useful especially to know those three.

@juan gonzalez You forgot the first and most important Round turn and two half hitches, there is a very important reason why this is the first hitch learnt by riggers. Clove hitch will hold a load but cannot "pay out" until the load is released, which is where the round turn and two half hitches is far better suited as it can be released easily under load. Clove hitch should (nearly) always have a half hitch tied to the load line or at the very least be tied with a long tail.
Beautifully explained! Thank you!
reminds me year 2000 scout days, when we learn few knots like figure eight and fisherman knot that I still remember, very clear explanation by you

Strange that I seem to use a lot of knots, never really been taught probably, and as far as functionality, all seem very similar to what I have taught myself. I'm definitely going to start practicing the proper way.

knots have a logic to them and with practice or some thought you can formulate knots to do anything you want, the best way to develop a knot is to build a knot for functionality and then stripping down the knot do what is really necessary , binding knots can easily be turned into slip knots, and basically binding knots are just hitches that hitch to a line. I would push people to learn why knots work the way they do rather than just learn knots. It is also important to understand how line works under tension, and how pulleys work with lines in a system. Learning how block and tackles work and how to construct one could be invaluable, and knowing how to string line for strength can help avoid accidents.
