I don't consider that I can tie a knot unless I can tie it behind my back without looking. This forces one to have a mental picture of the knot and tie process and helps it go into long term memory. The basic boy scout knots are all that are needed for most situations, and adding ones like this and a truckers hitch can get someone a long way in these skills.

Very easy way to learn with your pace and the great placement of the camera. Good Job, thanks!

I was looking for something to tension while tying down displays for work without an anchor point and this works great. Very useful. You can incorporate a truckers hitch to create a mechanical advantage all the while making the whole system releasable,reusable and auto-locking. Love it!

It's a figure eight stop knot but with a bight. The working end is passed through as shown and when tightened, the figure eight bites it and is easily released with the bight. Genius at play.

This is an interesting knot, but if you have more time then instead using a loop at end of rope and a taut line hitch end of rope will allow a bit more compression because the knot you use creates extra friction on the rope.

I Like The Quick Release Knots.

Love it!

Looks like a quick-release figure eight knot, running end poked through and held by friction. Looks better than arbor knot imo for bundles

I saved it. I've got a few tarps I'm going to use it on. And practice it. Thx.

After reading your comment, I have come to the conclusion that I have no idea what the fuck you wrote.

I like it, but it does come loose when the line is grabbed. I think that was addressed at the end with the additional hitch. I just wish more attention was paid to that as it was done very quickly and was obscured by the hand.

As you have tied it, the act of hauling down to draw tight also acts to drag the release bight free. This would not be so if you had inserted the free end from the other side of the knot, no?

Tie them and they will come, good luck going forward.

A double d-ring strap is amazinger.

As you have the knot correct, I must tell you there's a way faster way to tie that single handed. I had to keep up with bundles of 25 ejecting at a rate of about 10000 kicks in a 8 HR shift. Using a ring knife.

You’re right the knot he showed is not auto locking. To make it auto lock pass it through the loop twice to the right of standing end.

@@jeffholderbaum2809 Even twice this knot seems to be equally difficult to tighten and loosen to both directions meaning, the same force you need to tighten it will also open it. So if you tie it around something that can expand (like your hands) you will be easily able to force it open which makes it kind of useless to anything that should be firmly held in place.

Not in my opinion... this knot is ideal only for bundling items tight. I have other truckers hitches on my channel that are extremely good for tying down loads.

I notice the slipping too, thanks for this suggestion. I like this knot because it looks like something one could tie even with gloves on. I couldn’t figure out what you meant though about flipping the loop toward the knot. I tried various ways to do it but they all wound up not “locking”. I have been using the slipped Lapp knot (drawstring) to get a true locking hitch but it seems this would allow me to tie a tighter load.

@JohnGreen_US

@@alanh6673 Yeah, maybe a better way to describe it is that you form the loop & then fold it to the line in the opposite direction that you'll be applying tension. Note at the 3:00 mark he twists counter-clockwise to form a loop & then folds the loop downward away from the Bundle Knot he's tightening. He then insert the marline spike & pulls - a bight of the line get pulled thru that spike hitch as he's tightening - that's not a Marline Spike Hitch, it's a slip knot. Instead, if you form the loop by twisting clockwise, then fold the loop to line upward toward the Bundle Knot, then insert the marline spike (or stick), & then pull to tighten the bundle knot ... you'll see two results: 1. the bight of line will not pull thru the tensioning hitch- it just clamps-down on the spike, and 2. when you pull out the spike the hitch just falls apart ... That's a Marline Spike Hitch.

What you see isn’t one knot. The first knot is a variation of a figure 8 knot with the dead end doubled so it can be released. After he pulled it tight he used a half hitch to lock it. I learned to tie knots at a young age from my father who was a coxswain in the Navy during WWII. The Navy taught how to use rope not just how to tie knots. That information seams to be missed by almost everyone that makes a video. The videos the Navy has out there are as bad as anything I’ve seen. I’ve never seen videos so long or dumbed down so much for teaching a single knot. I learned to tie a bowline knot at about age 5 or 6 and Dad never mentioned any nonsense like putting the rabbit in the rabbit hole.

I can’t find any info on the music… arhhhh…frustrating.

Awesome...stuff they should teach us in school instead gender bending sensitivity

This is crap, lol. It won't hold any tension.

All that is is an modified bowline knot.

Buono, grazie.
