[@JasonsKnotChannel]

Hey everyone, please keep watching and check out my most popular video next "8 Knots Everyone Should Know" kzbin.info/www/bejne/h2rVpqmgeqmpisksi=Z-fQDJxeXJMWNRl3 and if you're looking for a gift for the person who loves to learn about and tie knots, check out the 50 Knot Journal amzn.to/468zKJI a small book I created to help fund these videos. Thanks for watching 🙂

I think an overhand knot is more like THE MOTHER OF ALL KNOTS. Thank you Jason for sharing!

[@JasonsKnotChannel]

The mother. Yes, I like that.

[@jonasm1728]

For sake of completeness: there is also the canadian jam knot (aka arbor knot) which is a binding knot and consists of two overhand knots

[@JasonsKnotChannel]

Yes indeed! Canadian Jam Knot is here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/jYWzdKWmadekgac

[@kevinwiens4804]

Yes The Canadian Jam Knot Rocks with it's 3 simple overhand knots!!! aka the "sleeping bag knot"...

[@dankolar6066]

Nicely done. Thank you for sharing. A point often overlooked is that knotting is a performance art. Like all performance arts, it requires regular practice. So, if one carries a short cord in a pocket, it will be available for practice whenever one must wait quietly. While not as interesting as a smart phone, the cord is cheaper - and one can then remember how to tie that stupid knot.

Very true and good advice. Thanks

[@richarddiss1643]

AWESOME! Agree 100% As I'm still a begginer in knotting, I needed that kind of explanation. Thank You very much Sir for sharing Your knowledge. Greetings from France ^_^

You're welcome and thanks for watching

Jason I totally agree with you, although the Bowline is a life-saving knot it has been REPLACED.. which I love it gets way too much credit, the Scott's locking bowline is better! The simple overhand knot is FOUNDATIONAL to almost all other knots... However "humble' and "unkingly" it is it was the first knot I learned, a simple slip knot...and of course the "square knot" that we were all taught at 5yrs old, to tie our shoes it's fundamental.

Good video , thanks for sharing , God bless !

[@JasonsKnotChannel]

Thank you

It seems the overhand knot might be better termed "the knot" as everything else can be explained as a variation or glorification of "the knot."

[@Iconoclassic]

I still think the bowline is the king of knots. The overhand is more of a jack of (all trades) knots.
