- We place a lot of trust in a truckers hitch and as one of the most versatile knots, a trucker's hitch can save you a lot of time and effort. In this video I share how to use a trucker's hitch for every day purposes on my vehicle roof rack as well as for wilderness survival purposes. The benefit of making a trucker's hitch is that you can use it to tension your line at combat speed through mechanical advantage to incredible tautness all while still being easy to undo. Once you've practiced making a trucker's hitch a few times, it will be one of your favourite knots, a cool party trick and something you readily do at combat speed.

Working my way through college I picked up extra cash delivering furniture. The truckers hitch is the foundation of furniture delivery.
Hey there! Thanks for sharing your input. It certainly has some awesome everyday life applications. C
I am sending lots of positive energy from Germany👋
Thank you positive @bugout2023!
Good info thanks. Reminds me of when I was a young man in New Zealand tying down old square hay bales onto trailers 🇳🇿 🇿🇦
Hi there! Some skills never get old. I bet you'll find a use for it before the week is out. Thanks for watching! C
Well done beautiful!!! The trucker hitch is my go to and love it. Well said and definitely one of the best to know. Love the camera views and bloopers too.👍🏼🍻👊🏼😁😉💯😎🫵🏼
Hey there! Thanks so much for all your support, I really appreciate it. Glad to know I'm not the only one leaving a trail of trucker's hitches behind me😉 C
@@LiveReady 👍🏼🍻😁💯
Great knots and well taught. The big orange rope does a good job visually.👍 Those little "loops" on your roof rack are sometimes called eye bolts or eye nuts. Keep up the great work!
Hey Nelis!! Dankie vir jou boodskap. Het in die week aan jou gedink. Hoop dit gaan goed. My big orange rope happens to be a climbing rope. We're due for a climb. C
Hi Clerise, that is the knot we use the most on the farm. The farmers here all know how to tie the knot but we none know the name of the knot. Sure I will also forget the name of the knot soon 😂 Thanks for great videos. Have a lekker weekend.
This is so funny, now you have a name that sounds cool too. Thanks again for dropping a comment, much appreciated. C
Great video! Thank you! 🙂👍
Hey Keith, thanks for watching! Glad you found value here! C
I now have something to practice.
It's funny when you get one person to hold on to one 'tree end' of the rope😂 enjoy
I'm a big fan of the taunt-line hitch for ridge lines but never thought about using a truckers hitch. I'll have to give a it a try. Thanks for sharing!
There's an upcoming video about a taut line hitch. If I had to choose one id go for truckers👍
Always interesting!
Thanks John!! Nice to have you watching, appreciate the support. C
I use the trucker's hitch all the time. Besides being fast, simple, effective and easy, the greatest advantage is that all the knot pulls free so the line can be used again
I absolutely love these videos. When you pass on your knowledge of survival skills it’s a reflection of Jesus Christs miracle of five loaves and two fish. Thank you for what you do.
Wow that's so heart warming, and what an awesome compliment, I hadn't thought of it from that perspective. Have a blessed evening and thanks for supporting the channel. C
Great demonstration. ✌
Cool😎 Thanks for watching! C
Wow, i think she Can tie you up so fast and tight… dont mess with her😅
Ok question, what rope are you using here and the thickness is....? (looks like climbing rope) I always have a problem gauging what rope i should take along and how much is too much. Normally i have around 50m of 550 paracord with me, why so much? well i can twist it into a double strand if need be and it is pretty strong even in single strand, plus it hardly has weight to it so wont bog down your backpack. I would love to know if that rope is a EDC on your hiking trips and what length you prefer taking with you.
That would have worked with Paracord. Securing heavy furniture we used inexpensive bulk nylon cord. No where near as strong as paracord but strong enough.
Hi there! You're 100% correct. It's 7,5mm dynamic climbing rope made by Mammut. I usually carry Paracord too, but for demonstration I've started using this 4m cut length of rope and now keep it in my car because it's so practical to use for tying stuff down. Paracord woven together is a great EDC option, thanks for your suggestion. I was just thinking today though, that one could use the length of climbing rope to make an extra harness in a search and rescue op. May be worth keeping in your car. C
Hey...
