thank you very much for your kind words

When I was in the Marine Corps, I discovered the jungle knot rope from the British Royal Marines. Since then, I use it for the ridge line of my tarp shelters. No need for prusik loops. Never thought of using it for blinds, hides, or debris shelters. Great video sir.

Since I heard of it from his last video I've swapped my hammock straps and turned all of my heavy cordage for canvas into jungle knots.

it doesn't end there, in some armies it's used for climbing trees or walls. the "jungle knots": one of the most pratical inventions of mankind, if you ask me.

As an old guy who's seen a lot, this "jungle knot" cordage is one of my absolute favorite tricks you've shown. Many Thanks!

Very good blind couldn't find you at all in it. Be good for invading someone looking for you or a observation post monitoring others near your camp or retreat. Thanks for sharing, stay safe

Try drilling out a toggle and put it on the line at the centre point then tie your knots. Then you have a Toggled Jungle Knot and it makes using it even faster. Wrap it around the tree and put the toggle thru the first available loop then walk out the remaining line oh oh it’s not long enough just grab another one put the toggle through the last loop and walk out the rest to the next tree. It saves lots of time and your not looking for toggles.

Oh Mr Blackie, I SO ENJOYED this video! It was so informative and now I KNOW how to make a quick hunting blind in the woods! So smart and quick! Thank you 🙏 again for always sharing your vast knowledge with us! God bless you my friend!!!! Greetings from North Mississippi! Praise God for fall in the humid South!!!! 🙏🤗👍😎

Hi Mr. Thomas, Another great Video! I was hoping that you could please explain (or show in a future video) how to put up the cordage on the second tree, so that the toggle can be properly secured❓❔ I am sorry for the trouble, 😥but I just cannot understand how to set up the second tree, as done in your video demonstration. Thank You So Much!

Throughly enjoyed this. Here in the Pacific Northwest we have bigger trees so therefore I’d need a longer bunch of jungle knotted cord. No problem… making one up to go into my pack.

Hey Blackie- Thanks for another cool sneaky stealth instruction. After watching your previous about making the 550 jungle knots; I made 3 of them and have not used them yet, but they are ready to go. This bankline idea is great for as you stated a hunting blind, debris shelter or in the military would make a great LP/OP position. Now that I watched this, Im going to make one of these to keep in my haversack. I hope #36 bank line works, because thats all I have. Thanks again Blackie- Be safe out there-

I would try this buy I turned all the cordage in my bag into knife knots . Maybe next roll of bank line

Hi Mr Blackie, I watched recently a video by a guy who did a length of jungle knots but also added a toggle at the half way point where you start to tie the knots so that it ends up on the end of the length of knots. That way he could fasten the cord around a tree with the knots and use the toggle through his tarp webbing or to even add another length of jungle knots etc etc. Seemed really useful.

Hi Blackie. Great video, thankyou for your time to make this video. Just a thought if you put a toggle in the bight end permanently, would that give more ways to use the jungle knots, what are your thoughts, can it be done. Thankyou.

mountaineers use a similar device, they call it "daisy-chain" - smaller loops and not knotted from round material but from sewn tubular sling material. Thousands of uses, but I never saw it used in this way - thanks for showing.
