So glad I ran across your channel, finally someone who takes their time to show and explain how to do all different types of knots, thank you , please keep the videos coming 👍🏼
A little of both, I enjoy making paracord bracelets and keychains, also I love to camp (hammock D D ) and a lot of these knots are very helpful. Again thank you for showing and explaining each knot . Keep up the great work, I’m ( knot) going anywhere 🙂👍🏼
I don't really classify what I am as I don't really know, haha. But I love learning about knots and hitches. Love to learn as I believe one of these days, all this knowledge will come handy to certain situation. Thanks again for teaching me.
@@devono7230 Milk, meat or pet, was what I expected as an answer, but goat hiking............ wow, I never heard of that. I will admit, as I reply, I wonder if this is a wind up, I hope not, I so want this to be true!!!
Thanks! I just hung my hammock using these knots. I'm concerned that they might slip because all I have available here is thick nylon rope, which is very slippery and stiff. But it seems to be working!
@@KnottingKnots I can't really say as I have not had it up long enough. I did tie it too low, and untying was challenging, but that could be my arthritis. Thanks again for the tutorial.
Is there more than one way to tie the anchor bend? I've seen it this way, with both hitches through the loop, and one where one hitch goes through the loop, and the second goes around the standing end below the loop. I'm brand new to knot tying, and just learning, so I'm really (k)not criticizing, I'm sincerely asking.
Yes, think the Anchor Bend has a couple of variations. It is rare, but some knots and names can vary from region to region. Thanks for taking the time to view and also make a comment, very much appreciated.
I am hanging a chair swing with nylon rope and rings . Would this be the correct knot to use? My fiance past away 3 months ago and he was someone who loved tying knots and making things. He knew almost all types. He would have loved this project I have taken on.
The wonderful thing about knots is, they add to your memories! Yes, this would be a very secure knot to use, it may though take a bit of fettling to get it nice and even on both sides. good luck with your project, do let me know when you have completed. I am very sorry to hear about your loss.
I don't think your "Quick Release" version really qualifies as quick release. After you pull the "Quick Release" end, there is still one turn holding the knot together, until you pull it out. Nevertheless, there are probably applications for just such a partial quick release knot.
Well, sailors have used this knot for a very long time. However, the Poacher's Noose may be an easier alternative: ruclips.net/video/yDgeTjDSvts/видео.html A great number of people swear by this knot.
As I understand bends are used when joining two ropes together, and hitches are used when attaching to something. So therefore should it not be called an Anchor Hitch?
Just looking this up................... Although this knot is an Anchor Bend, it is listed under Ring Hitches in Ashley's chapter 24. From reading more, this knot is closely related to the Fisherman's Bend. So this may be why it is classed as a bend??
@@KnottingKnots OK but the Fishernan's Bend is also for joining two ropes together. Anyway a very useful knot whatever you want to call it and thanks again.
"Jiggle them about, just to secure it properly" This is called dressing the knot, just FYI. Also, I would disagree with your characterization of "easy to undo." One reason this knot is used for anchors is because yes it's secure but it's also very difficult to undo after it has been under heavy load. For an anchor, this is not a bad thing. You never want to undo it, until your rode starts to fray and fail, at which point you cut it off.
Quick release version will be easier to undo after loading, but those two round turns really tend to lock down, so it may even be a bit difficult. But with the quick release version you have a total of three strands passing through the two round turns, so if you can pull out the quick release this will make space from where the bight was passed through and should be *much* easier to untie than the original version.
I wonder if something like this setup would work better: igkt-solent.co.uk/tying-metal-thimble-rope-fishing-magnet/ You could increase the number of turns. Thanks for taking the time to view and also make a comment, very much appreciated.
If you take a look at this page, you will see at the bottom what Ashley's Book of Knots says about this knot. You will also note that there is an addition half hitch followed by some whipping. igkt-solent.co.uk/anchor-bend-nilsson-knot-tie/
I hope not, certainly not what I'm doing...... is that what you thought? The repetition of letters was a simulation of the American ruh ruh stuff. RUclips seems to e full of it. I was just saying it was a nice to be taught stuff with out the rah rah.
No,no, not you. What I mean is that when you watch some videos they shout at you "HEY DUDE blah, blah, blah and then you end up watching some boring stuff that they try to make exciting. I think we are back on the same page now? ;-) I just wish I hadn't put that winking face!
This isn't a Seamans knot, forget this you'll never get it undone, if you must tie a rope to an anchor use a Fishermans Bend, but any seaman worth his salt would spice in hard eye and use a galvanised shackle on the anchor

Dude, you need to learn to edit yourself, this video is way longer and way wordier than it needs to be. Very frustrating to watch. Example :58 - 1;25 is completely pointless and repetitive, the animation should be ;05, not ;15. The video is nearly half over before you get to the point.
I started a long time ago to "over explain" as I have one subscriber who is blind. He and his granddaughter follow the videos, he listens and she watches. He ties the knot and if he goes wrong his granddaughter corrects him. A lovely little bond must be growing between them?

A nice easy secure knot thanks JD.......weighing up if this or the buntline is the more secure....
My guess would be the anchor bend is more secure as the working end is finally secured between the knot and the object.
Exactly what I needed! Thank you!!!

Do you have a video of relatively secure hitches with quick releases and a comparison between each? Pros and cons?
Are you looking for a fixed loop or something that pulls up tight?

devzer0 agree, this one is very hard to undo when wet or when having been under tension for some time.
I've always considered it as a "don't tie this if you would ever want to undo it" knot.
Hi. How about nylon rope. Which knots can i use. It does not grip and very slippery. Please help. Thanks

I was thinking that maybe also the Halyard Hitch, I this has a reputation for being very difficult to undo: igkt-solent.co.uk/halyard-hitch/
Would this work on a wooden beam?
I would say, give it a test to see how it behaves? Maybe also take a look at the Backhand Hitch: ruclips.net/video/4_vZyFbsswE/видео.html
Is something like this sufficient for tying an anchor rope to the anchor chain? I have 1/2" rope going to 1/4" chain on a 14lb anchor for a 23' boat.
