    Actually, I love knots; because they train my brain to think both logically and spatially, as well as kinesthetically. They are foundational for so many other things like fishing, hunting, slings, splints, lowering and raising things, climbing and rappelling, boating, saving a life, stretchers, hanging things in trees, setting up shelters, sewing, binding broken tools, pulling large logs over large distances, carrying many smaller diameter logs all in one go over the shoulder. They are the basis for other craftwork like paracord designs, knitting, crocheting, making nets. They can be used for ladders, and weapons such as slings and whips.
    They can be used to set spring loaded traps when multiple people are after you.
    Whoever doesn't like knots probably doesn't care to survive.

    Have people said they don't like knot tutorials or are you going by likes? Maybe many get caught up practicing and neglect hitting the thumbs up. I love them! Some are new to me and some are refreshers or a different way of tying like I learned the other day with your bowline tie. Thanks again! DOL

    The more I practice knots the more I like the knots. Knots are like tying my shoes. When I was a kid and learning to tie my shoes I had to think about it then one day I was tying my shoes without thinking about it. It is the same with knots. Awesome video my friend.

  • @unclebrownson
    @unclebrownson 4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Two suggestions: make your starting timber hitch away from the stick, then slip it over the end;, and use a piece of wood, or a rock, as a fulcrum to lever the ends of the sticks up out of the grass, while you're making your wraps.

Now that I am gray bearded and hair thinning, I have come back around to enjoy the things I used to in the military, just don't have to so maybe why I enjoy it now. Any way, thanks so much and keep it up, really enjoy your videos.

    For all you newbies just getting into
    " bushcraft " " survival " this man is one of the few REAL
    " bushcrafters " " survivalist " on TH-cam.... I been an avid outdoorsman, hunter
    " bushcrafter " for close 40 years & this man knows what hes doing, what hes talking about ..!!!
    99 % of self proclaimed
    " bushcrafters " " survivalist " with TH-cam Channels are nothing more than The TH-cam Shopping Channel pushing useless gear on unsuspecting newbies with sole intent of making $$$.....
    Again, if your new to the outdoors, bushcraft, survival watch this man he knows what hes doing...

    I have made many bi-pods to use as a quick rifle rest, but never been too worried about the tri-pod. I can see many opportunities to use a tri-pod for cooking, stronger free-standing supports for shelters, and on and on and on. Great information as always Josh.

    @danielblanchard6487 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    Thank you for taking your time to show us this.
    For some reason it got me to remember the flying bowline.
    So it's to take some slack in your right hand , with the end of the rope. Take the long end in your left. Through the right over and back up. An the right loop goes into the left.
    (Left into right is a slip knot. )

    Don’t like knots? No, knots and knot craft are pretty important, and add a lot of value to woodsman skills. Besides, you always a take a straightforward, practical approach: limited knot set for critical, practical applications, one clear and efficient method, presentation straightforward step by step.

    Years ago, I had a list of almost 90 knots that I would practice and could tie with no hesitation (yes, some were variations of some). My biggest problem sometimes was being ADD & trying to decide which one to use. I could make a short list of maybe a dozen at the most that could get a person through almost any situation that may arise, like the constrictor knot.

    Just like the Boy Scouts two or three polewrap except you started with a timber hitch instead of a clove hitch.
    Your finishing clove hitch is the same. I think I like the timber hitch start even better.
    Very good presentation, well done.
    As I have previously stated on yoyr other videos, your communicative skills are excellent 👌
    I have always appreciated their skills and enjoyed working with SF soldiers.

    • @GrayBeardedGreenBeret
      @GrayBeardedGreenBeret  4 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      Thats a true "tripod lash", I only use it for applications where I need the center pole on top of the two outer supporting poles. For the application I am using this technique for (in a future video), the weight is on the outside poles instead of the center pole so I have found this to be better for that and for applications that aren't really bearing a lot of weight. The over-under of the true tripod lash seems to take longer so I only use it when I have to

    So three weeks later I finally get around to conducting a semi-scientific controlled experiment regarding which starting knot might or might not use less cordage, the timber hitch or the clove hitch with stopper knot. As I gathered materials it occurred to me that the remaining style of wrapping/frapping/finishing was irrelevant, we're simply interested in knowing if the starting knot saves cordage. I took some paracord and used a one inch piece of PVC, so the substrate would be absolutely rigid. I tied both knots as a starting knot then measured how much was used. Results: clove hitch with stopper knot used 9 1/8 inches (230 mm) of cord, timber hitch 10 1/4 inches (260 mm). I'd call that close enough to be irrelevant. I did NOT try it with bankline or natural cordage, I suspect the results would be close also. So don't fret over your hard-earned natural cordage or dwindling supply of paracord or bankline, tie away with whichever knot does it for you.

    If I was smart I would watch from the first to the last video because I think there is some aspect of skills built on skills. Ex: Teach 11 Knots then show how to use with lashings, ridgeline shelters, etc. Teach knife Cutting techniques then show them in making structures, wooden tools, etc.
    Also, it doesn’t go unnoticed how little ego and immensely humble this guy comes across. I get the impression he knows a ton but is very modest. A key characteristic in the best teachers in any field.
