- The Farrimond friction hitch in this form in the video has a quick release action, which can be locked using some form of toggle. The Farrimond Friction Hitch is fully adjustable easy to tie and easy to adjust the tension on a line. This hitch is extremely useful when a length of line needs to be adjusted periodically in order keep a line at a desire tension The Farrimond Friction Hitch is also extremely easy to untie. It can be used to adjust a ridge line for a tarpaulin, or a washing line, as the friction knot holds extremely well.

What is that piece of furniture you use?
If you get a really slick bit of cordage, and the knot doesn't want to bite, do another turn before the quick release - essentially a triple prusik knot. This is a terrific knot, and I'm glad to have learned it.
Thank you for that tip Daniel. Thanks for taking the time to view and also make a comment, very much appreciated.
One of the advantages I see in the Farrimond Friction Hitch over the Taut Line Hitch is the Farrimond Friction Hitch allows one to create the tensioner anywhere along the working end of the line once it passes around the second anchor point. Thus one is not hindered if an excess of cordage still remains after going around the second anchor point. Oftentimes when setting up the ridge line I rely on a 25 ft. line of cordage that I'm hestant to cut. Thus I find myself with an excess of cordage once I go around my second tree. If I begin using the Ferrimond Friction Hitch I will not have to wrestle with pulling the excess through my loops as I'm creating the friction knot!
After learning and practicing this knot, I hardly use any others outdoors anymore! Thanks for making this.
Yes, this is a nice nifty little knot to know. What do you use to tie the other end?
Finally, a video that makes it easy to understand how to tie this knot. You're the man!
Thanks for your comment Mark, I assume that you are a practical knotter?
@@KnottingKnots Don't take it personally; YT doesn't always notify others about comment replies.
@@5jjt Good to see that you are looking out for me!!! Thanks for taking the time to view and also make a comment, very much appreciated.
And now I have the PERFECT knot for stringing up my tomatoes. Thank you! 🙏
Do you need a knot that is easily adjustable when tying up your toms?
@@KnottingKnotsYes! If you use the stringing technique, whereby you wrap a cord around the stem as the Tom grows and loop the cord over something on the ceiling. The bigger the toms get, the more cord you need, and you either need to anchor one end to something on the wall or floor, or tie the cord to itself. Using your knot means I can loosen the twine as the plant grows, wrap more twine around the new growth, then tighten it back up to taut again. I am very pleased with my new abilities! Much better than my half-arsed slip knot which never kept tension. Thank you!
@@katiesvegpatch I do love to hear about knots being used for different applications, thanks for sharing this with me 😉 😉 😉 I don't suppose.................... I can interest you in net making, as I am sure that as a gardener you might find them useful too? There are a few different types of nets and also knots, the shaped/purse nets make great hanging storage solutions. Perhaps when winter set in.: th-cam.com/play/PL7nysDkNnZHelZpSk9Xi0YyztSUKgC4GA.html
@@KnottingKnots you certainly can! My family used to make horse hay bags using bailing twine but I was too young to be shown how and no one is around to teach me now. They just used to bash them out super fast, knotting by hand and measuring by eye to create a bag that horses could pull hay from. Happy memories!
@@katiesvegpatch Knots are often packed full of memories! I sometimes make decorative rope mats, when I look at them later, I still remember the warmth of the sun and my dog snoring by my side. I often get comments on this channel, where people tell me about fond memories watching an old friend or relative knotting as they chatted. Also, when you make something, you feel a great satisfaction of creating something from a bit of string or rope.
What a beautifully simple tension knot!!! Thanks
What do you plan on using this for?
The Farrimond Hitch is a nice hitch knot, it has a Prussic like status to it but like others have mentioned, this hitch knot slips under tension. I feel that the Grip Hitch Knot is far superior with doing 3 passes around the standing end and then finishing the knot off with the final step where you go around the entire knot with a slippery hitch. The Grip Hitch Knot is best for using for anything such as a Ridge Line, Tarp Guy Lines, Landscaping to hold a Tree in place, etc. You are able to really get lots of tension by using the Grip Hitch Knot and it will not slip and will keep constant tension and pressure on the line.
35 years old and finally learned a knot other than a fishing knot. Thank you!
Thanks Johnny!
Lovely clear description Johnny, thanks!
Ein wirklich brillanter Abspannknoten! Thanks for sharing!
Very clear explanation. I still prefer the tautline or mariners hitches in most cases. The farimond takes a bit of dressing to get it to bite on smoother lines. If you finish a tautline with a loop it is still a quick release hitch, and for slippery lines an extra turn in the mariners or tautline will fix that.
The time I will use a farimond is if I don't have access to the free end of the cord, where it is very useful.
I am now assuming that you are some sort of Bush crafter or wild camper?
Johnny Debt A lifelong bush camper and sailor. Love your videos though. Very clear and detailed. 😁

Just started to learn knots. This is one i picked out. Thanks for making a really clear video on how to do it..
Thanks Ms farrimond for inventing this 🪢
Thanks for taking the time to view and also make a comment, very much appreciated.
Very nice and clear demonstration! Thank you!
As a novice knotter I find your videos very informative and easy to follow. One thing I’ve noticed is that at the end of showing how to tie a knot you display just one side of the knot but rarely flip the knot over to display the other side. I would like to see both sides of the knot. Thanks, look forward to more knots.
OK noted ;-) Thanks for taking the time to view and also make a comment, very much appreciated.
I always enjoy your demonstrations they are clear and concise
Thank you. I loved this knot. I was looking for alternative tension knots to replace linelocs.
Great knot for making an adjustable slingshot wrist brace.
Thanks for making the video. You made it clear and easy to learn.
Great tutorial, your video's are clear and concise. Thanks!!!!!
Glad you like them! Thanks for taking the time to view and also make a comment, very much appreciated.
Thank you! You made this knot understandable, and what a great knot!
a new knot to me, thanks. Heading out for a hammock camp in the woods this week. Will give it a try
Hooray, somebody going to use one of my knots in ANGER!!! Glad this is a new and useful knot to you, please let me know how you got on with it?
Great video thanks. I'm an avid hammock and tarp camper. Up until now I've been using the taut line hitch, but I wont be anymore. I don't think I've ever been so excited to learn a new knot, one that does exactly what I need it to and undoes effortlessly. Cheers from Australia.
Australia, Australia we love you!!!! 😉 A thousand years ago I lived in Penrith NSW, and used to go camping and cooking Damper! If you use the Farrimond on one end what would you personally use on the other end?
Id probably use some form of clove hitch or constricting hitch, or maybe a truckers hitch for variety.
great video dude! It's like a "Prusik - clove hitch - taughtline hitch" hybrid knot!
The reason I use this for my tarp set ups is because I use long lines and this can be tied in the middle of my working end,I do not have to mess around trying to get the length correct at the tarp end.
I clip to my tarp that has a shock cord tensioner (I use a prusik in the shock cord to get the tension how I like it), run out to my peg with the other end and tie a farrimond and coil the excess.
.... and another great story as to how and why a knot is used in reality. Thanks for sharing this information.
@@KnottingKnots I love hammock camping in the woods.
Just purchased a new tarp as my hammock is bigger than my basha.
I used to use a prusik and then attach my tarp to the ridge line and then centre it... now I use a continuous ridge line with two carabiners, slide the entire tarp wherever I want it and then tighten with a Klemheist.
I use a taught line of I am working with the end of a line on the tie outs, usually I end up using a farrimond because I have 10 foot lengths for each tie out in case I am using an awning set up or tying to a tree.
So if I am only using a couple of feet a have 7 foot of excess. So it's farrimond and coil.
Cheers Mate!
I personally like that you slowly went through it twice.
Thanks. By Jove I think I've got it!!!
Yes, I actually have a follower who is blind and between him and his very young daughter, they try all the knots. So when I do the video I always think of him. From your name (Sheetmetal Dad) I take it you make nice things with metal?
Superb instruction on a most useful knot. Thanks much.

Everytime I need to relearn this hitch, I watch your video. Thank you sir.
Glad to help, I also use my site to remind me of certain knots............ that was really the reason why I started this channel.
This will also be a good knot for using a short end of cord, wrapping around the tree and after putting the stick through the loop to keep it from undoing, hanging my packs grab handle and loop over the stick to keeping my pack off the ground but near my tarp set-up. Well explained.
Thanks for taking the time to share this information, I always love to hear about knots and cordage being used!
Fun knot! Thanks
fun and very practical. Thanks for taking the time to view and also make a comment, very much appreciated.
The farrmond friction hitch reminds me of the mooring hitch and a prussik hybrid. It's a a more effective mooring hitch for sure.
Brilliant! 🔥👍🏻
What will you use it for?
Nice one !

Well explained. Thanks
It is a pleasure, thanks for taking the time to leave a comment. Are you a practical or decorative knotter?
I'm a farmer. We use knots all the time.
very good knott better than prusik or tort line hitches, take loads of strain if pulled tightt
Thanks for taking the time to view and also make a comment, very much appreciated.
I like the taught line hitch better when camping
Another variant is the Adjustable Grip Hitch: th-cam.com/video/es9_0sru1dU/w-d-xo.html
Some like this better because it's quicker untied
Good , beat it !
Great knot. I came here after getting all confused with the taut line hitch... too much confusion about the right way. This thing is far superior!
I would recommend others to look at, but I always think that if you find a good one stick to it!!! Thanks for taking the time to view and also make a comment, very much appreciated. Are you more of a practical or decorative knotter?
That's a nice one sir, I am surely going to use this, I have done it a different way for times but now that I know this methode.....
Nice clear content, thanks. I heard about this knot on a recent edition of Radio 4's Ramblings, where Clare Balding walked with the actor Barry Farrimond, who invented the hitch, and it sounded really useful. So thanks for showing it clearly.
Well, I did not know that he was an actor. Thanks for taking the time to view and also make a comment, very much appreciated.
@@KnottingKnots No, I was surprised, too! An ingenious hitch, and one I have lots of applications for now!
@@archivist17 Often seen used on a tarp, but also good for raising a lowering a suspended pot over a fire (hotter or colder).
@@KnottingKnots Ooh, hadn't thought of that one! I was thinking washing lines, guy lines, securing luggage etc...
nice knot. It reminds me of a prussic which I use on my ridge line to move my tarp back and forth.
Yes, it really does have all the characteristic of the Prussic Knot. I take it that you are a bit of a bushcrafter?
Johnny Debt not so much a bushcrafter. More a person that develops some outdoor skills. I do spend time in the Superior National forest. My passion is canoe camping in a wilderness environment. Mostly it is in the Boundary Waters Canoe Area and Quetico Park in Canada. We-my partner Patti go out for up to 14.
Days. We do enjoy how you demo your techniqes.
Never seen this not before but I really like it. Kind of a quick release Prusik. I've only tied it in one cord, but it seems stronger than a taut line hitch. Great Video
Yes, this one is certainly popular among the Outdoor and bushcraft brigade. Thanks for taking the time to view and also make a comment, very much appreciated. Are you more of a practical or decorative knotter?
Have you used this knot and does the knot hold up well in windy weather?
Genial el video!! Me voy con una sonrisa a la cama. Es el video mas claro, preciso que he visto, Gracias!
Gracias por tomarse el tiempo de ver y también hacer un comentario, muy apreciado.
I like! Hopefully it will hold up in the field, which it should as it has elements of other knots that work. Good job and I'll have to check-more of your vids for little gems!
They are all gems!!! But there again, I am a little biased. 😉 😉 😉
Love this knot. I do alot of bushcraft and I sleep under a tarp. I’ll give it a try and if it gets windy I’ll let you know how it does.
If you finish with a Farrimond Friction Hitch, just out of curiosity, what knot do you use on the other end of the line?
Thnxs
Thanks for taking the time to view and also make a comment, very much appreciated.
Starts off like a mooring hitch at the "over / under" part but ends up like a Prusik or slightly like a Taut Line Hitch. Nice - it goes on my growing list :-)
Hello Alan, thanks for popping in and leaving a comment. Yes, this is quite a nice nifty little knot, would love to know how this knot copes with wet and windy situations?
Ok - just tied it with narrow gauge paracord under tension to a shrub outside. There's no shortage of wind and rain in our neighborhood :-) Will keep you posted.
This made me smile, I was thinking of doing something similar 😀
Days of rain and it's still holding good tension. The first day was windy and it had to be re-tensioned a bit next day but when it got wet it just held fast. I'm leaving it out 'till it dries now to see what happens. Cheers.
Brilliant! Makes me laugh, some of the extremes we go to for the sake of knotting. Let me know your weather and knot state in the near future?
This is a great knot in small cordage but becomes increasingly ineffective in larger diameters and especially slippery synthetic ropes. For such ropes, the Midshipman's gives me better results, especially when tied with an extra wrap round the loop prior to the 'nipping wrap'.
When trying out a new knot, as a general rule, I tend to try it first in 8, 10 or 12mm slippery 3 strand twisted rope - if it works well in that material, it is unlikely to let you down with any cordage you happen to be presented with in real life situations. If it fails to work, the exercise is still important in teaching you the limitations of that knot and leads you on to finding out knots that will work better in that type of rope. In a similar manner. For braided ropes Dyneema might be used as a 'test bed' for other synthetics
Different horses for different courses as the old saying goes
Funnily enough I was only thinking about this last night, as you say the Farrimond is good in smaller cordage. I also find that with the Midshipman's you can make it really tight as you progress through creating the hitch. Thanks for taking the time to share this information, I always love to hear about knots and cordage being used in action!
@@KnottingKnots
Talking of practical use in action, I sent an email to 'Chris' via the 'contact us' link on the IGKT Solent website, for him to pass on to you. Could not find a direct email for you. Might be worth adding an email address to the 'about' section on your channel home page........?
My email details my method of tying the Zeppelin bend and, though only a minor extension to the method you showed, I find it serves to keep a a really secure grip on both ropes at all stages of tying which can be very important in certain circumstances .
I'll add the method in comments on your video here th-cam.com/video/l2oj0ybUD_g/w-d-xo.html
Might be worth a look
Very cool knot, well demonstrated, you made it easy to follow, nice one mate thanks heaps, be added to my repertoire of 'stuff I need to know '
Cheers for taking the time to leave a comment, they are always appreciated.
I have used this knot and it works well
Brilliant, I love to hear when people use knots in anger (for real). Somebody in a comment below is testing this knot in all weather, how do you find it hold up in bad weather?
I find it to work well in all weather, I do mostly winter camping and I like camping in the rain and I have had no issues with this knot... the cordage you use might be a problem Amsteel tends to slip so I would not use it
it holds up well in all weather I do cold weather camping never had any issues , the cordage you use could be, I would not use Amsteel it is very strong but also very slick it keep slipping on me
Johnny, I love dogs, some are smarter than others,most could untie any slipped knot. The smartest dog I ever had could always untie a regular bowline (never use a noose!) I thought that it was remarkable that he could accomplish that. He was a Border Collie.such a fine dog to share life with, always surprising me with his intelligence.and dignity.
Border Collies are very switched on dogs! To be honest there is nothing better than a good dog as a companion.
@@KnottingKnots they say it's a wife, but you have to be blessed by God to find a good one is what I think.
@@danpollard4210 I will stick with dog!!
Yeah Johnny,I had a wife once,and 3 children, but the world took them.and killed my dog. Since,I've gone to the dogs I guess you would say.Over these long years,I've been blessed to enjoy deep companionship with 2 excellent ones,I tried to have one last one,but alas,he dissapeared one morning and I suspect he was murdered. But I don't know for sure. Now,I cannot have a dog because I am disabled the memories must now comfort me,which they do I thank God, for the gift of those more than animal creatures I have been blessed with.i don't think I could have lived without their help and love they gave me
Amazing!
Thanks for popping over and leaving a comment. Are you a knotter?
I am! I tied a Taut Line hitch for years, but the Quick Release on this makes me want to tie it!
Yes, there is nothing better than a knot with a quick release. Do you tie practical or decorative knots or both?
I tie mostly practical knots for camping, and I enjoy using creative knots when hauling things in my truck! My father got me into knots, and I showed him this video and he had never heard about it, but he agrees that it's really neat.
Thanks for popping over and leaving a comment. This is a fairly new knot, so that may be why your father had not heard of the Farrimond Hitch. I think also with knotting you end up with your select few and there is not really a need to go beyond that. One of my favourites is the Marlin Spike Hitch: th-cam.com/video/3r2UjaV8SVg/w-d-xo.html this knot is so good because it turns into many other knots.
This is really great , I can use this knot in many ways. I thank you for posting it and I am now a new follower :)
Oh dear, the only thing I can offer you as a new follower, is sore fingers! Thanks for taking the time to view and also make a comment, very much appreciated. Are you more of a practical or decorative knotter?
Well Johnny, I am actually both:) I have always been fascinated by the many knots there are. I have done a lot of macrame projects in my lifetime and had to learn many doing that. But since I was a young girl I I would watch people making different knots hoping someday to learn myself. At 63 I'm still yearning to learn even if I don't use them all .Thanks again for your video's I'll keep trying and trying too then we will both have sore fingers :) Thank again
Are you able to show me any of your work, as I do love to see other peoples knot-craft? You can drag and drop a photo here, please: goo.gl/mQgf8E
Totally awesome, I just tried this in my living room and took me maybe 5 minutes to get it right, once you get it dressed it's almost bullet proof, def better that the taut line hitch. I am going away camping next weekend gonna be using this for tarp setup, I think taut line is fine for tent guy points.
Yep, nice little knot to know. Thanks for taking the time to view and also make a comment, very much appreciated.
Also if it's heavy wind or something you can do a third loop to make 3 barrels on each side and it's even more friction-y. My favorite knot for sure
Interesting knot, basically the same mechanism as a prusik, but the outer ends loaded rather than the inner. I usually use a either a Prussic, or a Rolling (Magnus) hitch for this work, but I'll definitely try this knot instead.. The QR function can be a two edged sword at times though!
QR I think is a bit of a novelty in every day life, maybe under fire and quick escape? I have now made a note of the Rolling hitch, soon to be shown on this channel ;-)
Never seen this knot before! It's gonna help me immensely! Thank you very much!!!!!
What do you think you might use it for?
@@KnottingKnots tight lines. I use a sloppy taught line hitch but as others have mentioned it requires the entire tail end wound through the space which is a pain if using long cordage. This negates said problem.
*slippy...............not sloppy. Bloody spell check.
@@branni6538 Yes, there is that!! Thanks for taking the time to view and also make a comment, very much appreciated.
@@KnottingKnots your instruction in knots has helped overcome many problems I faced/face out doors in bad weather. Thanks
Hi ! I really like your videos. I think we share the same vision of "what is a nice knot ?", aka quick, efficient, easy to un/do and easy to remerber. OMHO, this one is on top of the Taut line knot as it is easy to do, undo, remember and you don't have to pass the whole rest of cord through the knot. The gathered rest of the cord can be used as safety pin :)
I think to be honest my favourite knot is the Marlin Spike hitch, as it turns into so many other knots. I did a video on it here th-cam.com/video/3r2UjaV8SVg/w-d-xo.html , but it now needs to be updated as I have learnt more since then. Thanks for popping over and leaving a comment.
I do like the Marlin Spike hitch since I've seen your video. It might be updated with this knot as good start for bowline, bottle sling knot and trucker's hitch.
When I need to tie things down at my job I generally start with a taut line but I'm going to try this next time to see how it holds. And thanks for the easy to understand video.
It would be great if you came back here and let me know how they compared?
@@KnottingKnots I tried it a few times it held fine but the taut line is just easier and quicker so it’s still my go to.
@@dm9078 I find it is always good to try new knots, sometime they end up replacing or being added to my arsenal of knots. Thanks for taking the time to view and also make a comment, very much appreciated.
thanks in advance,,, very difficult when its a small diameter cord , 1mm. , can you explain how to make nice and tie...
i follow you in many videos you explain perfect... thanks a lot
Nice one and and seems to take more tension than a tautline hitch! Bit more of a faff to cinch up the turns though.

Cheers for that DG, tea and scones are one me!
I plan on using this to hold a large barn door in the open position , using larger cordage of course. With Autumn coming we’ll have lots of wind hitting that door.
Maybe if you are using larger cordage, then the Taut Line Hitch may be better: th-cam.com/video/twHBqJafs9s/w-d-xo.html
Wich is better to use, the farrimond or the taut knot? Tnx
Very helpful. Thanks. Is this knot/ hitch named after someone particular or is it named after the occupation of ferrying a person across water?
The hitch is named after its inventor, Barry Ferrimond. He is an English actor and plays Ed Grundy in the very long running BBC radio 4 series "The Archers".
The _Prusik Hitch, _*_satisfactory_*_ working on a double thick _*_the carrier_*_ the rope_ -
on *synthetic wicker circular cross-section* must have a minimum of *3 pairs* round;
however _Blake's Hitch_ *(excellent* working *and* on the radical end) from *3 turns,*
finished folded in half and leaving *penultimate* round end,
will keep an adjustable loop *much more* reliable.
_Захват Прусика, _*_удовлетворительно_*_ работающий на вдвое более толстой _*_несущей_*_ верёвке_ -
на *синтетической плетёной круглого сечения* должен иметь минимум *3 парных* витка;
однако _захват Блейка_ *(отлично* работающий *и* на собственном коренном конце) из *3-х витков,*
законченный сложенным вдвое и выходящим из-под *предпоследнего* витка концом,
будет держать регулируемую петлю *гораздо более* надёжней.
That's a prussic with a bite...clever
Yes, there are couple of knots that fit into that category. Just notice your profile picture, you still serving?
Johnny Debt No. I served 8 years from 90 to 98. Thanks.
Very interesting video. Could you use the Siberian Evenk inplace of this
I know what you are saying, as the Evenk Hitch does have a slight flaw if tightened incorrectly (slipping). I am thinking that if you want a noose knot that can then turn into a fixed loop, maybe the Crabbers Knot?: th-cam.com/video/OuNtCKZ3uYQ/w-d-xo.html
@@KnottingKnots Thanks Johnny. "does have a slight flaw if tightened incorrectly "; I didn't know that; is it mentioned in your video?
@@7mag Sorry, I got my knots mixed up............. I was thinking of the Kalmyk Loop, that one has a flaw when tightening. Now, thee Evenk Hitch is a figure of Eight knot, like the Crabber's knot.............. off to have a play to see how they compare to each other. Sorry about the confusion, these days I sometime struggle to tie my own laces. ;-)
@@KnottingKnots Having had another look, I suspect the Evenk only cinches up tightly when it meets the solid object (tree etc) around which it's looped? Or can it be adequately tightened mid-line...?
Dear Mr. Debt, thank you for your videos. They are well done. The knot pictured on the TH-cam cover page does not appear to be the same rope or the farrimond hitch that you demonstrate in the video. Was there a mix up in editing? Also what it the name of the knot that is pictured? Thanks.
I think you may be right??? The video has only been up 3 years and no one else mentioned this. I am thinking it may be a slipped Midshipman's. I am in the process of updating many videos, so this one well be looked into in greater detail. Thanks for taking the time to view and also make a comment, very much appreciated.
Seems you had a knot on your tongue for a moment there...

Wonderful! Thank you so much for making these videos. I know they take time and effort to make. I am an administrator over at the Whip basics Forum and we have a section just for advice and resources. as a whip maker, I would use this for my tension line that I sometimes wear around my waist to pull against my thong as I plait straight, or I might use it directly off the hook to shorten as my whip gets longer. If that makes sense at all :). Would you mind if I shared your videos with the forum?
I am glad that the Farrimond Friction Hitch may be of some use to you!!! :-) Please do share any video that I produce, would love the whole world to get back to knotting again. I have to say that I enjoyed looking at some of your master pieces!! Just to let you know, if I lived in your town, you would be my hero!!!

alwaYUS GO WITH TRHE TRUCKER'S HITCH ITS THE BEST
I always say, you are the master of your own knots............ so use what suits you best. Thanks for taking the time to view and also make a comment, very much appreciated.
I noticed that when making this knot you said that you make a loop ,but what you made was in fact a half hitch I would have thought that you would realised this as they are different
I wonder if I can use it to tie an apron. Bow tie comes off after a bit.
OK, here is a thought. Tie your apron as normal, but as you tie the bow, tie it opposite to what you normally do.......... not sure that explains it??
@@KnottingKnotsnot sure what you mean, but I found the taut line hitch does the trick, as it has only failed me once. 😉
Merry Christmas, Johnny Debt!
For some reason, my mind wants to call you Debit. 🙄
🎄🎄🎄🎄 .... and a very Merry Christmas to you too. Good of you to take time out and leave a comment. 🎄🎄🎄🎄
Well,as Pres. George Bush 43 said, “a mind is a terrible waste”.
Same. You should change your last name to Credit, because you should get credit for making knots easier to understand.
@@danielholtxxl4936 you should hear Biden speak.
@@Perktube1 I'm pretty sure Bush 43 was talking about Biden.
My experience with this knot is that since it pulls at the back of the knot it tends to lose strength and not squeeze standing end enough. .
By the way, what is that knot you have on your channel thumbnail?
It is the Jury Masthead Knot, makes an excellent four handed sling for lifting and shifting boulders etc.
On the final step of the hitch, you keep saying "form a loop and pass it through" but you actually form a bight and pass it through
Pack it in lad technical pedants are a pain in the arse everyone understands what he's demonstrating and that's all that matters
Nice collection of knots but too slow and long winded.
Wow, another intentional misnomenclature to accredit himself with innovation just like the other videos.
Total crap. Use a blakes hitch.
I only show how to tie them............. Thanks for taking the time to view and also make a comment, very much appreciated.
Thanks Johnny!
