Knot Tying & Rope Work

Most people know one knot — the overhand knot they tie in everything — and it's the wrong knot for almost every situation. It jams under load, it slips when you don't want it to, and it wastes rope. Ten knots will cover 95% of everything you'll ever need to tie down, set up, secure, or build. Each one exists because it solves a specific problem that other knots don't. Learn these ten and you'll stop wrestling with rope and start using it as a tool.
