<\/p>\nSo many know some knots and I do not claim to be a master guru or anything like that, just want to help other know a little more than when you opened this page.<\/p>\n
So to start the good old thumb knot, this can be used as an end but two together can join a rope with a lot of strength.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The bowline creates a loop that does not slip and high strength.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
By it’s self, this provides a good big lump that will not pass through a hole.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
So a figure eight by it’s self does not do a lot, but this will join two ropes of similar thickness together with almost no loss of strength, this can be used to make a loop too (people abseiling use a loop to connect the ropes at to top of the cliff).<\/p>\n

Connect a rope to a pole.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
Connect a rope to a pole but a half hitch locks the knot.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
This sliding knot is great for guide ropes as it locks in place.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
Joins ropes but easily rolls into two half hitches.<\/p>\n

Works for joining ropes and works with dramatically different rope diameters, sailors use this for pulling larger ropes to other ships.<\/p>\n
