This knot is useful for me, especially in terrace gardening.

[@KnottingKnots]

I bet it saves you a lot of hassle?

[@querubimsantos2347]

I just can’t enumerate the many times I needed to find out a knot that could help me perform some task. And this here has been the place where I’ve found the answer. Astounding!!!

[@KnottingKnots]

I am glad that you have found some new knots to help in your tasks. What do you mainly need knots for?

[@querubimsantos2347]

@@KnottingKnots I’ve been taking sailing classes. It has always been a passion, but the pandemic made me realize that “we do not have time, we have to make time.” Then again, my “blue collar” line of work requires me to be handy, specially creative. That’s why I am getting to learn the ropes. And you’ve been a great source of information. Thanks for your concern. Have a very nice day.

[@jackiemason2145]

Johnny this is a great knot for someone who works by their self. Thank you for sharing

[@KnottingKnots]

Glad that you liked it Jackie, now you can impress people who may be watching 😉 😉 😉

[@paddor]

“by their self”

[@dankolar6066]

Thank you for sharing. Still, the best knot release is a stray 15-year-old kid, but only if he has forgotten his phone at home.

[@KnottingKnots]

I always say, never use any knot, especially a slip knot around people!! 😉 😉 😉

[@lopaka76]

Good luck with that, if you see that happen you need to keep an eye out for sasquatch too. My 15 yr old doesn't forget his phone from room to room. Lol

[@lopaka76]

@@KnottingKnots if you need to use a slip knot, let anyone know below you that you can see.

[@bobgerman4060]

Lineman call that a grunt knot. We pull the tail to release it. It slows you to hold something off, walk away or come down from the pole and yank the standing part to release it. Glad your back Jonny!

[@KnottingKnots]

Thanks for taking the time to share this information, I always love to hear about knots and cordage being used in action! Good to be back mate.

[@robertoneal7508]

Saw the speculation on a forum about this knot used for lighting rigging. Released instantly in stiffer, larger rope. Glad to see a step by step, thanks!

[@KnottingKnots]

Yes, often used by lighting riggers, but not well known elsewhere.

[@raycollishaw673]

Riggers. Paid for 12. Take 2 breaks and a long lunch. Go home early :)

[@Rufeo0]

Can you think of a quick release knot for lowering plastic bags, rubble sacks or bin liners? I have had successes with girth hitching the gathered end of the bag, even with the heaviest bag it won't slip out but it requires untying by hand at the bottom...

[@swaggercat]

Really cool set of knots John. This could be very useful and easy to remember.

[@KnottingKnots]

Used by lighting riggers to lower their cables, yep, dead easy to remember this one.

[@robertoneal7508]

Probably a handy knot to temp hang gear around camp for quick release!

[@KnottingKnots]

........... and there is another good use for this knot!!

[@KevinDC5]

The twists in the second version, in the “working loop”scare me. Without even trying the knot, I can already tell that I don’t want any rotation in /of my load otherwise I’m gonna be buying me working mans lunch for a month! 😊

[@yasstone4268]

Thanks, I did not know there was a second version!

[@KnottingKnots]

I find that version one works well in certain ropes, perhaps use version two for extra security?

[@namethem00]

For the second version I experimented and found ( using Paracord at least) that doing two twists then putting your knot through makes it more secure. I also put in an Ashley instead of an overhand.

[@aleksnightsky]

Thank you for what you do on your channel, it's very cool! There is a lot to learn from you! Alex from Siberia🖐

[@KnottingKnots]

Always good to see my favourite sewing channel make a comment!!! 😉 😉 😉

[@JinoConklin]

Thanks for sharing! Do you know of a knot that can be made on a bight passed through a hole or bucket handle that can hold tension, but when tugged real hard will untie the knot? I'm trying to get my grapple anchor to reverse and pull upside down when snagged...

[@KnottingKnots]

Years ago I did something similar on a folding anchor, is this the sort of thing you are thinking about? kzbin.info/www/bejne/nJDNgJuPeZtngdE

[@davidshearer7442]

Is that actually a bull's nose ring that you are tying it into? Has a small screw for release to allow it to pivot apart on the hinge opposite.

[@KnottingKnots]

Yes it is, I also use one as part of my Ditty Bag handle. Thanks for taking the time to view and also make a comment, very much appreciated.

[@KnottingKnots]

@@geophphd5594 I have a selection of knots in my arsenal, but am always on the lookout for knots to add or replace existing ones. Also good to hear why you need knots, thanks for sharing.

[@wdtony]

Cool ideas. I saw another man say that if you have a long enough rope, he would just pulley down his gear and then pull the end through which needs no knots and is secure. I’m assuming whatever he tethered had a handle.

[@KnottingKnots]

if I am correct in thinking what he says, you would then have to haul up 2x the amount of rope. Thanks for taking the time to view and also make a comment, very much appreciated.

[@Tenacious-Tiger]

Listening to your voice, all I can think about is the teacher on the (original) Willy Wonka And The Chocolate Factory. I keep waiting for you to ask Charlie Bucket a question. 😆

[@KnottingKnots]

Is that a good thing, or a bad thing?

[@Tenacious-Tiger]

@@KnottingKnots Yes! It's a good thing. But only if you ask Charlie Bucket a question. 😉 (Just a little Yankee humor your way) 😉 Seriously though, your videos offer methods not often seen or taught, were you a teacher before? Please let me suggest a little constructive criticism.... If you were to speak to the microphone instead of the classroom, you would appear more relaxed, unless you're giving a test afterwards. 😉

[@paulwyleciol3459]

@@KnottingKnots how could I resist!?! :-)

[@Must_not_say_that]

Of course for perfect safety you could always use a running bowline or other safe loop with another cord attached to the loop so that you could pull the loop free. Why take any risks?

[@BrianthatiscalledBrian]

Very interesting. I can see how handy that could be. Thanks, Johnny. 👍🙂

[@KnottingKnots]

I believe that it is used a lot by lighting riggers to lower their cables.......... just not many people know about this one........ but more do now 😉 😉 😉

@@godngunclinger Good to see you back!!! Do you need knots, or just learning for the fun of it?

[@godngunclinger]

@@KnottingKnots I drive a truck and have a pickup, I need to tie down loads and tow vehicles or pull out stuck vehicles needing recovery I also do some bushcraft or camping, no sailing yet or climbing but the more knots that can be learned the more activities there are out there that become available, I'm wanting to see all your videos, I find knot tying very interesting and functional I used a 35 thousand pound truck to pull out two field worker's trucks that were stuck in the mud, they were linked together so I pulled them both at the same time with a three inch wide strap that I put into a bowline .. I surprised myself how nicely that worked and then easily untied the knot after pulling what must have been several thousand pounds of force!

[@KnottingKnots]

@@godngunclinger Thanks for taking the time to share this information, I always love to hear about knots and cordage being used in action! I too like to watch lots of knotting videos. I do have a top 10 selection, but am always on the lookout to see if there are other knots that can replace or be added to my top 10. I have never wanted to do a top 10 video, as I feel sure that is the best way to start on online fight 😉 😉 😉

Never use this! Opens on load more then 2 kilos on most modern polyester or dyneema ropes! Не используйте это. Я не знаю что у него там за веревки, но на стандартной 7ке оно развязывается под нагрузкой

[@KnottingKnots]

I have highlighted the dangers of using this knot, but I would say that it does serve a purpose in the right conditions. It should be tested with different ropes to know the limitations of this hitch. Thanks for taking the time to view and also make a comment, very much appreciated.

[@glebgrigorovich8390]

@@KnottingKnots i have tested it on 3 different ropes 7mm accessory cord, 8mm polyster double rope, 6mm dayneema petzl rap line. The same result. :(

@@glebgrigorovich8390 It worked fine on my milk churn. I would say that it is only good for light loads. It is used by riggers for concerts etc, they use it to lower their coils of cable.
