That's what we tie our harness to. The more weight you put on it, the harder it grabs onto itself. For these reasons, the bowline is a popular knot to make anchors with (such as around a tree).

You need ample tinder and kindling. Leaves and pine needles can work as good kindling even if a bit damp, depending on how dry they are internally. Look for brown, obviously dead stuff. Newspaper sucks as kindling and should only be used as an igniter, it makes too much soot and ash and chokes out a nascent fire. Your Tinder should vary in size from about 1in in diameter down to tiny twigs, and they need to be dead, not fresh. If all you have is logs, youll need to make small strips and chunks for your kindling. Once you have your materials, you can arrange your fire. Height is your friend here (because heat rises, igniting materials above it, but embers fall, heating the material at the bottom). Ideally you would build a tower or a tp. Big logs can help form your foundation, but the most important thing is to mind the airflow. It's fine to clog it up a bit with your fire starter materials at first, but the goal is to have ample airflow into the base of the fire, and an obvious path for that air to follow as it heats, expands, and rises. But if it's too wet you might just be effed.

Two big wraps, two little wraps. Thank you very much sir. I'm always at a blank in a situation where you need a strong knot

If you dont believe that would happen then you mustn't know about MKUltra. But you can use it to your advantage in cases like this, practicing while watching something on a screen will imprint it into your subconscious.

Practice while watching the video, and then practice without watching, and then again several more times over the course of a week and you'll have it down. There are only about 7 knots you really need to know to cover almost every need; bowline, stopper knot or figure 8 knot, alpine butterfly, truckers hitch (which uses an alpine butterfly or a bowline), clove hitch, round turn (or two) with two half hitch, square knot. Incidentally, a bowline can be tied one handed with a few very simple maneuvers, and so if you are being dragged in the water holding onto a line - or in a flood and someone throws you a rope, you can hold on with one hand, use your free hand to pull the rope around your back, and then use it to tie yourself into a bowline making a rescue harness and freeing both hands to work on getting out of the situation knowing you are secure.

@suedenim9208

I see parts with superficial resemblances to a clove hitch and barrel knot, but resemblance is all I see. It's basically a double overhand on two wraps instead of one. If it's not around something a double overhand can easily invert into a barrel knot as a stopper but that inversion can't happen here. At 0:08 you can clearly see that it's not a barrel knot. This knot may be fine for basic utility work, but I wouldn't use it for anything critical, or anything that might lose tension and shake or vibrate.

Thank you for sharing your knowledge. When I was a young man and in the boy scouts I would sit in my room and with my scout manual out I would practice tying knots. Believe it or not I still have that rope that I had back in the boy scouts when practicing. That was over 50 years ago. When I started bass fishing I join the bassmaster subscription and as you're free guest it would have a book on tying knots to attach your hook to your reel. I would practice and practice until I could do it blindfolded. Back in my thirties when I started rock climbing it was the same thing all over again. But this time if one of my knots would fail I could die. I would even carry a piece of climbing rope with me to work and on my lunch hour I would practice. I really love how simple you made it look to tie this knot. As I was watching your video I pulled out my practice rope and have already tried this out at this point for at least 20 different times.

Braided fishing line is notoriously slick. If you had put a couple of half hitches at the end of your lathe handle knot tie, or instead of making two wraps around your hand, double the amount of wraps to four, and it will not slip. Knots for rope seldom work for very small line like fishing line and vis versa. I love this channel and you are a knot genius. Thank you for this absolutely fantastic channel. The knowledge gained here is priceless.

I like it. My go to is a slightly simpler version which is the round turn and two half hitches. I can tie it with one hand easily.

Brent - Nice work. If you want to make it 100% Murphy proof put a stopper knot on the end. You could make it even stronger by capturing the wraps under themselves. If you need a example of what I'm talking about: a rolling hitch is stronger than a tautline hitch because the wraps are have more friction. It looks messy, but it works better for it. As a inventor, you think things through and do things your own way. I use time honored knots and save my thinking time for how to use them in combination. As long as you do the R&D you have the better end of the deal. In the days of sail some sailors would keep the secret of how some knots were tied, much as some people won't share family recipes.

I don't know what your story is, I don't care, you're not my problem.

@@ScorpionRegent Actually you seemed to be the one with the attitude, the time honored knots are great however I stand by what I said, it takes just as much "time" to learn and implement those knots if not longer. ...and aren't any faster to use so I prefer Brent's "Panic Knot". Sorry if I appreciate the new innovative designs Brent comes up with I do apologize if you took offense by what I said...

​@@kevinwiens4804- Okay, here's your one chance. I never said anything about taking the "lazy way", you did. Brent isn't lazy, he took the time to think it through. I never said that my way was better. I did say, "As long as you do the R&D you have the better end of the deal." I choose to use time honored knots, because I have all ready learned them, in muscle memory. That is my choice and I would think it's a good reason. Knowing knots I can tie the Panic knot without having to practice it, but I still have to think about it. When you have to do something under pressure like rigging a tent in high winds, I have, time is at a premium. So speaking only for myself, I can can implement my knots faster. I invested time into my knots. Some people collect shoes, I collect knots. Brent spent his time inventing, among other things, a knot. I don't so much invent knots, as contemplate variants. Whether or not I invent other things isn't relevant here and now. Based on my knowledge, I pointed out how he could make his knot more reliable or even stronger. I never implied that his knot was unreliable or weak, just that it could be better. When I mentioned that I chose to spend time differently than Brent, did you infer that I was passing judgement? I wasn't, only noting the difference. Okay on to etiquette & protocol. If I seemed to have a attitude in my first comment, then that was you assuming. I did have a attitude after your response, that was me offended. You read a lot of things between my lines that weren't there. I don't know why you viewed my comment the way you did. You might want to figure it out for yourself. I will accept your apology if it's sincere and you actually learned something here. If you just are trying to be polite, I will choose to decline. Okay I'm knocking the ball back to your side of the net. Brent has a new knot, I gave some options on improvement, what would you like to share? So far you haven't mentioned any other knots or techniques, only what I feel to be unwarranted and unproductive criticism. I'm serious, if you have something to contribute I would sincerely like to hear it, because this shouldn't be about you or me, it's about Brent's knot. If nothing else say how you will use it.

as a fisherman I was immediately like "that'll slip with fishing line" glad he included that, go for a locked blood-knot in that kind of situation, also not too difficult

Haven't seen a knot video that's so clearly explained. Entangling 👏

I loved this video. This looked like a variation of a bowline or a cleat hitch. Very effective.

This is cool never seen this one before and I only remember a hand full of knots from sailing in high school. Have to keep it in mind

This is a great knot to teach my kids. I know quite a few, but this is something that people will be able to remember.

So good thanks for sharing! Man I love what can be done with knots!

I feel like you just made me a little more prepared for the world. Thank you

Simply great!

You are a consummate teacher/mentor in this incredibly and difficult task of showing a simple example of your forte. Unfortunately I can not make two turns geographically and knot be lost. My hats off to you Sir!

Never do this, this is a self-tightening knot that will tighten around your waist with a force of yoir own body weight, similar results can be achieved by trying to use a noose as a harness. This is what you use the bowline for

Thanks. Easy to follow instructions. Really helpful

I often resort the the bowline loop at the end of a line This looks to be a great working knot and a good solution for securing those roof rack items

which is stronger....? plus of bowline is that if the line goes slack it doesn't get undone

One of the things I love about a good knot (the ones in this video are a perfect example) is when the knot is still pretty loose but very secure. Your knot isn't going anywhere if I pull on the working end, yet once tension is let off I could easily push a finger through the knot and pull it apart with that one finger, no problem. There's nothing worse than tying a knot that works but then ends up extremely tight and difficult to untie...

Try the one I suggested, and see if you end up with a bowline-esque knot.

I have been in that "everyone looking at you, expecting a knot" too many times, so thanks for the help

Best and easiest knot so far! Thanks for the vid

this literally changed my life

It’s a slip knot and as you see in a couple of the demonstrations, it’s a good way to ruin your rope. It pulls tighter and tighter the harder or longer you pull and leaves you with a knot you have to cut to get loose. Timberline or tentline would be better options without causing rope loss.

EXCELLENT video. And I like the first knot a lot. Will use it that's for sure!

This was very useful whenever I had to rappel down my room without my mom noticing I was heading out!

Neat knot but As a pipe welder/iron worker my one Bose would not let you work untill you learned three knots the cat,spaw/bowline/Square knot. We did alot of work with cranes so knowing the best knots was a must for rigging. There was an accident were a piece of pipe fell from a crane which is why we had to learn those knots before we could work. I after learning them I didn't realize how much it would come in handy at home also towing cars settings up tents and tarps save me alot on rope not having to cut it after tying a knot.
