0:52 That's used in telephone central offices with waxed lacing cord for nice, neat bundles of telephone (or power) wire. Only, it's secured with the thing one does when tying shoelaces (not the double overhand you tied) and pulling it tight to that hitch (which I know as a larks head) cinching it down to however tightly you want to bind the bundle, much like a zip tie (because it is in fact the thing that preceded the zip tie). You can even make a loop so that it can easily be undone when needed.
BTW, I've been cut often enough by zip ties that I almost always use this knot and other knots (like a marline hitch) used in traditional cable lacing instead.
Been in a CO for almost 25 years. It's still in use in my offices. No panning anywhere. Adding cable is easy. Removing cable sucks, especially when it's several layers deep. But when cables are laced well, it's damned sexy.
I would love to see a bushcraft series. But even more than that I'd love to see a PDF with step by step pics from your videos on how to tie certain knots. I know thats a big ask but just an idea
Haha, great idea and second the bushcraft series. Your comment sent me down a rabbit hole, or maybe I am just procrastinating to get away from the things I actually need to accomplish. Good news is it is possible to turn a YT video like this one into a PDF or other document. You can simply copy the transcript and paste into a pdf or other doc. Screen shot the images you like and insert at the timestamps. I haven't used it but it seems there is a paid service called Designerr that uses AI to do a potentially better or easier presentation. Here is a video with a quick demo. th-cam.com/video/UTIFx7w_d2I/w-d-xo.html
Water bowline is what I'd tie if I didn't want whatever I had looped it to to ever be lost. Your, basically an improved butcher's knot, knocked it out of the park.
Once the loop has drawn the working end back through this looks like ABOK #1992 the "jamming hitch" which fits the class grog (of animatedknots) calls "slide and grip knots". Only in this case tied in the standing part around the working end, rather than the vice versa. For similar knots: the farrimond friction hitch spills beautifully when released and I've found Blake's hitch to have the strongest hold when gripping
I LOVE the Farrimond. Seriously, if you ever use a Tautline Hitch, switch to the Farrimond. You don't need to feed the whole rope though so it's great for tarps, especially when you don't want to cut your line, and it's super quick and easy to take down
@@niceguy191 It's a lovely knot, also spills much more cleanly than slipped variations of the others since you only pass bights, never ends, around the standing part. Really the only point against it is that I find it a little fiddly to dress.
Is this better than the truckers hitch? Easy to tie and easy to tighten and easy to untighten? This could be the best hitch in the world. I need to practise this over and over again.
Here in Brazil we have a really good knot ("nó" in portuguese) called "nó carioca" or "nó paulista". It's more simple to do, more esse to untie. Perfect.
Hi, could you demonstrate a kind of knot which i can use to secure a motorcycle topbox, where the box is secured enough to not move while riding but having the ability to be quickly opened and redone. I have tried the trucker's hitch but once it is undone for any reason, it comes off completely. I am looking for something like the taught line hitch which can be easily redone without the removal of the entire rope. Thanks a lot..
Use the serrated part of the knife. Believe it or not that serration is there to cut rope, although im sure you already know that, your were just segueing into your plug
This could be the first permanent knot/rope combo that replaces the ratchet straps in the back of my truck for holding down wood stock. I guess I’ll be using that code to buy some paramax!
Oh, I’ve seen them and have been using such a hitch for years. I’ve been knotty since Boy Scouts and use a lot of knots in climbing. It was a question to the OP.
@@clubstew I haven't tried a trucker's hitch yet and I'm sure it would work. Lately I have been transporting 4x8 sheet goods in my truck bed and my ratchet strap hooks fall out of the hold points as I tighten them up (usually loading up alone). I also haven't worked with Paramax yet, so that could open up many possibilities.
Even een correctie, ik bedoelde de dubbele weversknoop, als je de dubbeleweversknoop kent kun je hem ook maken met een lus maken de dubbele weversknoop is niet te verwarren met de karaaksteek, ik kijk al jaren op TH-cam en eerlijk gezegd ik heb nog nooit een dubbele weversknoop gezien en toch zo gemakkelijk te maken
3:22 With the camera angle change, it took me a minute to figure out the correct orientation of the knot and lines: which one is fixed, and which side the tension is going to be pulled from.
I know the first knot by the name "Lark's head". And using the knife for undoing that knot caused me emotional trauma. Also, Leatherman Raptor Rescue scissors - because people may spazz over knives, but they likely won't over scissors with dull tips. Nice spike!
The truckers hitch is better. It wont need cutting with a knife to undo and wont slip. With your knot, you say it will slip but not come undone so all's good. Not so, if the knot slips the tension comes off the load and whatever you've tied down is now not secured.

Came here to say exactly this. Old school central office cable lacing.
@@kyleinokc It's been 20 years since I've been in a C.O. But, I'm betting that old-school cable lacing still has it's place.

👍🏻🇨🇦. A camping series is a great idea !! 🏕️
I 2nd the motion for a camping series.
Canadian jam knot does it all...learn it once and you can bind anything and ease off effortlessly when neede
The serrated part of your knife blade is designed for cutting cords and ropes. Video at 2:37. The serrations will cut that cord quickly and easy.
The amount of cord this guy cuts and the difficulty of sharpening a serrated edge is probably why he avoids using it.
Love dat knife knot & hammer knot 😅
Very nice, thanks for sharing! Going to check out your site with the ropes.
Is this a (better) alternative for your upgraded truckers hitch?
What is the benefit of this over, say, a taught line or a trucker's hitch?

I love the humor! Matilda just makes me smile!
This is good. A new knot to use for the back of the car/truck and i will buy some of that paramax too
Tiebreaker. How have l seen so many of these and not gotten that until now.
Thanks my friend for share this wonderful information...!!!!
Love it! Will be “checking out” Maycember 😂🙏🏼

Tem também o nó passablok ou no alto BLOCANTE. Ele é tipo carioca, mas você aperta ele e folga com facilidade. Muito bom esse nó.
@@claudemirdasilva6616 esse eu não conheço. Vou procurar. Valeu!
Good. Sort of reminds me of your "Dog leash and collar" knot.
My favorite channel!!!
Hello, can you please link the TH-cam video of the water bowline? I'm I've already seen that but I'm not that sure 😊
Dad always called that a gopher knot. To untie it, you have to go fer yer knife...
Could you do a video for tying a Jerry can to a roof rack?

We have a special promotion for people named “Briz”. Free paramax while supplies last. Must be picked up in person.
Have you looked into a trucker’s hitch? Curious how that stacks up if you have.
@@clubstew He has 2 videos on improved truckers hitches. Suggest you check them out on his channel. I believe this is for smaller/lighter loads.

Als je een lus wilt maken die je achteraf gemakkelijk kunt losmaken, zou ik de weversknoop gebruiken of een paalsteek in de bocht,
Even een correctie, ik bedoelde de dubbele weversknoop, als je de dubbeleweversknoop kent kun je hem ook maken met een lus maken de dubbele weversknoop is niet te verwarren met de karaaksteek, ik kijk al jaren op TH-cam en eerlijk gezegd ik heb nog nooit een dubbele weversknoop gezien en toch zo gemakkelijk te maken
The collapsed version is the bane of tatting, may I add
Reminds me of your paracord buckle knot

We live in Australia- is it free shipping to us?
Unfortunately it’s USA only
I like the simplicity :00
This just got added to “My Favorites” list of knots.
Amazing ❤❤❤❤❤ thanks
Reminder not to twist your rope too hard or else you'll hurt it and it will scream like at 3:25
Thanks for sharing
Can we call it the “3 twist tie-down”?
Thank you
In telecom installation this called a starting stitch.
Thanks
I almost had to quit watching seeing you using a knife that dull
make sure to like the video people !
