Around the standing end is an Eskimo Bowline. Per 'Budworth complete guide to knot tying' there is a sled in a museum in London that was brought back by an explorer (Sir john Ross) that contained numerous such knots in its rawhide lashings as evidence that it is a genuine Inuit knot. That is why I will always refer to that variation as an eskimo bowline. As bonus trivia there is a lot of evidence that Native American technology was more based in tension loading than compressive loading. The book 1491 has a lot of interesting information about this. Also some peoples documented their history via knots and rope work. Imagine a Macrame Journal. I found this extremely fascinating as an engineer. Imagine the poor europeans who came and had to cross chasms on rope brigdes instead of the nice stone archways over rivers. Or rather trying to convince their horses to cross.

Please, could you make a video about the best midline loops to use under heavy tension? I’m wondering if you could use your “tiebreaker” to really crank on some knots to see which one is easiest to untie. Several I’m interested in are the butterfly, the farmer’s loop, the directional figure 8, and the bowline in (on?) a bite. I feel like 90%+ of people online claim the butterfly will be the easiest to untie, but I’m skeptical and you have some cool testing equipment. I’m also interested in how the zeppelin loop unties after a heavy load compared to a bowline. Thanks! I look forward to your content.

Hey wheres the video you made of lifting something onto the top of a truck. suspending it inside the garage, then driving under it?
@killrade4434Күн бұрын
I always did this knot by doing a loop and loop on the same side so I make a pretzel. Then take the bottom of the pretzel and weave in in and out from one side until i get to the middle. Gold back and I got the same knot you made.
@douglasglaser9634Күн бұрын
If you go around the loop instead of the standing part THAT is the wrong way to tie the bowline. I call it the "Jim" bowline after my knot challenged friend... if you're worried about cowboy vs book version always use Yosemite finish.
@JimmyBettsКүн бұрын
Boas Bowline, Cossack Knot, or 'Eskimo' Bowline. Since a slipped version of this is called a Kalmyk Loop, I often call the unslipped bowline variant like you made in your video a Kalmyk Bowline.

The additional knot around 5:30 most closely resembles the "mesh knot" (#402, #3791, #3796). Typically tied with a netting needle by forming a becket hitch through a bight of the previous row, the working end would go around a mesh guage before tying to the neighbouring loop of the previous row to form a net. - im this application all ends are in use and loaded roughly evenly. Compare the "granny mesh knot" (#3786) which ashley says tends to lead slightly better and the "carrick bend" (#3783) which is the most involved but also stable knot for this purpose.

There are many different knots that fall into the class of a bowline: the standard bowline, the cowboy bowline, the Eskimo bowline, the Yosemite bowline, the Scot's licked bowline, the water bowline, etc., etc. When someone ties a cowboy bowline, he didn't tie a bowline 'wrongly'.

As others have said, the "incorrect" form of bowline shown at 0:41 was the cowboy bowline, being a normal bowline with the pass around the standing end reversed to leave the end on the outside. The "another knot" (shown at 3:30) is indeed the cossack loop, which is a cowboy-eskimo bowline. In an eskimo bowline. the working end passes the other way through the initial turn and around the strand leaving to form the other side of the loop, rather than the standing part and finishes on the inside.
