In this tutorial video, you'll learn how to tie a bowline knot, a versatile knot that can be used in a variety of situations including camping, survival, bushcraft, and general life skills and knowledge. The bowline knot is also known as the king of knots because of its strength and reliability. Whether you're tying a knot for fishing, securing your shelter, or just need to tie something securely, the bowline knot is a valuable skill to have in your knot-tying arsenal. In this video, we'll also touch on other popular knots like the clove hitch, square knot, and reef knot, as well as different types of rope and cordage like nylon, sisal, and macrame cord. So, whether you're a seasoned knot-tying expert or a beginner, this video is perfect for anyone looking to improve their knot-tying skills and learn valuable survival knots.
The following knots, hitches, and bends are in this video. I break them down into Anchor knots, Tension knots, mid-line knots, and binding knots.
You'll find the Zeppelin bend - or 69 knot, The Sheet bend and Double sheet bend, the Bowline, (Anti-Bowline or Eskimo knot), the Evenk Hitch (Siberian Hitch), Taut-Line Hitch (Magnus Hitch, Midshipman Hitch, and Rolling Hitch), Truckers Hitch ( Auto-Locking Truckers Hitch), The Prusik knot, Alpine Butterfly, Constrictor Hitch and Canadian Jam knot (Quick Release Jam Knot).
I tie all these knots with Paracord, and they are considered Survival knots, bushcraft knots and camping knots. I explain the use of a Bight, round turn, hitch, and bend.
Wether you want to learn how to tie down a tarp, how to set up a tent, what to do with a fray or cut in your rope, or how to join two ropes together - this is the guide for you!

Everything about this video is exactly how it should be. You provide facts, examples, use cases, and high production value. Too many knot videos are 100% "how" and 0% "why"! Thank you.
Its always a good day when The Bear Essentials uploads
You just made mine. Thank you!!! 👊👊
@@TheBearEssentials your welcome
I've been tying knots for years, but I like how your videos show practical uses for them... something many books/guides lack when showing how to tie.
DJ is such a good communicator and teacher.
Thank you so so much!
DJ is the man. Excellent 🎉video. Keep posting
I have used this knot for many things over the years, but not once did it occur to me to use it for my sweatpants. Would have saved me a lot of aggravation.... thank you.
My pleasure!! Yes I found this use too late as well
Yes!
Thank you for this!
@TheBearEssentials "... too late as well"
It's wonderful to see how many variations of the clove hitch are out there and how they all have a great use.
Your production in this video was on point! Beautiful cinematography, outstanding audio, brilliant color grading, strategic use of light and amazing presentation all packaged in a short informative video!
Wow, thank you so so much for this.
I literally just bought a camera about a year ago and dove into it… so this really means a lot to hear. I’ve been really enjoying the whole process of cinematography and mixing that with teaching!
@@TheBearEssentialsThat recently?! Your videos really set you apart from other knot tying instructionals (to be fair, some of them are from 10+ years ago with inferior tech), the clarity and context you employ are excellent
I have been learning, failing to learn, and see-learning knots all my life -- with varying degrees of success. I have taught knots in scouts and used them extensively when camping in earlier versions of me (only to forget them due to lack of use as I aged). Your videos have cemented these knots in a way I remember them. I found myself remembering to use this knot recently because of this video -- I wanted to thank you for that. You videos are a true gifted to the world. Thank you for them.
Great video and presentation, what I really liked was the examples of the hitch's use at the beginning. Also the demonstration of a mistied version and what it would mean.
Nice clear instructions. Thanks for the video.
Thx for the feedback, I’ll try to make more with these common traits in them!
Much appreciated
Great hitch, Thank You!
Great knot! Very clear thanks!
Thanks for introducing us to this knot!
This has already found practical uses in my home and will come in handy on my trip out to Voyageurs. Thank you!
That’s fantastic! Thank you for sharing that. Glad it’s going to help!
I really want to thank you for the enthusiasm you bring to the skill of knot tying. I’m enjoying learning from every video you’ve produced, and look forward to being able to one day recall each one of these from memory.
I am in love with this hitch!
The shorts string tie is the abs winner!
Thanks...this particular knot is going to be so useful. You really show really clearly...
Camping, the outdoors, and life in general 😂 loved that one!
Of course you added a quick release to it, I was already waiting for that variation and actually already started thinking about how to add it...
Seems I already picked up this habit from you - awesome teaching of yours!
Wow! Very useful. Thank you.
Great knot/video!
We've chatted before - always enjoy your videos and your craftsmanship. Keep at it!
Thx a bunch. And I always appreciate your support with these!!
I love this knot, and although I watched a bunch of vids about it, you have more uses and help for this versatile knot!! I totally downloaded your video for personal use when Wi-Fi and electricity go bye-bye lol! I'll find solar or whatever needs, but and going to compile a wealth of info on this tiny phone for future use!
Thanks so much for saying so!! Great idea downloading them!
so many great knots and hitches just have to use them regularly so you dont forget
Perfect timing. I just wondered about a shorter version of Prusik
It's a great knot. I will be using it. thanks.
The right man to queue behind when the zombie apocalypse comes.
Finally someone explains knots in a slow enough way that I can understand the method! Bravo, sir!
Outstanding videos in his whole channel!
First video of yours I have seen. Very clear and concise. Good work.
Sorry for commenting 6 months late, just found this video. Have subscribed.
Brilliant demonstration, with real world applications.
Thanks.
Don’t be sorry, I appreciate you stopping by!! Thanks for subbing!!
I love when I learn something new. Thank you.
You’re welcome! I do too!
Fantastic knot. It's like a prusik knot without the loop.
Fantastic Video! Thanks!
You do VERY good knot and hitch illustrations and explanations. This, as well as its many variations, has always been a staple in my repertoire. I've forever kinda thought this set of hitches to be nothing more special than prusik and clove variations, and since I know how they work, I can improvise as needed. Of three "knotish" things I must know how to do, this is included as base knowledge.
Thank you so much!
And I couldn’t agree more with your thought on the clove/prusik variations. Understanding how these ones work and a few example uses I think helps people see all sorts of unique uses in their own lives!
Going to try with pants. Seems really convenient
Ok, that's so amazingly cool. Thank you for sharing this and your great videos.
Thanks so much for the nice msg!! Made my day :)
I really thought you were going to say your favorite use was "hitting that like and subscribe button". Thanks for the vid
Lmfaoo! I’m defs going to do that next vid. That’s hilarious
An easier and more useful Prussik? I'm in! Thanks so much! Maybe this will fix the problems I have with the drawstrings on my shorts lol
Yess!! Exactly what I thought
Excellent. Much appreciated. Describing when and how to use knots is a piece of the puzzle that most creators/books lack. The when is the piece I believe needed to cement the "how" in peoples memory. Mine at least. Thankyou
I made a comment on another channel asking "why don't you just use a rolling hitch?" Cool. Good video. Simple knot. You can apply more twists in the knot and use it on larger ropes similar to a prusik as well. Although it is open ended and could potentially slip under great strain. But I've used it with pullies. Pulling in wire through pipes. It's a great way to tie off the main line while you reset the gear.
Excellent! Thank You.
You’re very welcome!
This video paced perfectly for me. Definitely saving this video too! J will be so impressed when I use this knot in SO many ways. Please continue to add "when to use" tips! ❤ Thank you
DJ, you're a genius in hacks that really works. I think I have viewed all of your contents in one sitting, and I liked them all. Salamat po from the Philippines!
This has by far the most uses. I am blown away by the ways we can use this as
Awesome knot! Thanks Mr. Bear!
he really needs to make more videos like this one. it would be so helpful for us campers!
More to come!
@@TheBearEssentials LETS GOOO
Very useful! I have a lot of shorts with drawstring and just applied this method to all of them, it just made my life easier. ❤
Great video and explanation. Fun fact: The Ashley book of knots identifies two similar knots as rolling hitch. The one you describe and the one that's used as the actual knot part in the tautline hitch (basically two round turns and a half hitch). I use the last one to hang my tarp, having two loose thin ropes fixed to opposite holes in my tarp (with bowline knots) i just wrap them twice around the ridgeline and secure them with a half hitch, usually tied with the bight as a quick realease, then i move the knots apart to tighten the tarp, exactly like you described.
So. I today needed to tighten a thin garden plant line support in my garden. A granny knot would not do. Nor a clove hitch. Then I remembered this video. This knot did the trick. So many thanks.
Dj! Like I said b4, I like watching your videos bc you go slow and make sure we can see hour hands. Many videos are so far away or don't go step by step. I'm older and never learned these skills but I love idea of rope vs ratchet straps.
Simply put: I love this guy!
Magic! Thanks.
Nice work.
Great explanation and excellent photography.
Awesome dude 👍 Thank you
Thanks for this not I’m sure would be useful in a lot of different ways. Never seen it never thought about it. Thank you. Keep the videos coming and I’ll keep Beth’s name on the other people. Thank you.
Yep, the rolling hitch is brilliant. I have been using it for years, primarily for guy ropes on tents and awnings. One of my GOTO knots, like a bowline or double sheetbend
I'm so glad I've found your channel, absolutely brilliant content my man. Love it. Sub deployed.
New to your channel. This was incredibly informative and more importantly for me- quick! Thank you for sharing this knowledge!
Hey I liked the last bit about using another line as an anchor. Thanks!
Nice! thats my favourite one!
Hi, Grandson of old Navy officer, my pre-screen babysitting consisted of an old book and six feet of cord. I vaguely remember almost all of the knots, thought I'd forgotten most, but in one video you have reminded me and re-awakened at least one. Excellent video and presentation, subscribed. My own teenage son will now likely hate me for some considerable time as I still have the cord ... :-))
Really good video, thanks. Terrific tune up. (The NYTimes went on about using the rolling hitch to tie waist strings-- never mentioning it was the rolling hitch. Pikers.) Holly on Wind Hippie Sailing YT Channel had her stainless steel cable back stay break (it holds up her mast -- very serious.) She just tied a rolling hitch which pulled roughly inline with the remaining cable. It didn't slip because of the differential (my term) of the rolling hitch. Very smart. Herbie The Rigging Doctor (another YT sailing channel) recommended expanding our rolling hitch thinking to include the Magus Hitch. This is similar, but under a load doesn't tighten as much, so the Magus is easier to undo. I was so enamored with it I forgot about the rolling hitch for a while. But they're both essential.
(I'm usually pretty good at stuff. For years I could tie knots that'd work, but which were also impossible to undo. So I was bad at knots. When I became a sailor I started to focus on practicing them at home, maybe while listening to a pod cast, music or audiobook. So my Bowline got bulletproof, but my cleat hitch, rolling hitch, anything that needed something to tie to never got better. Even after sailing every day for three months. Made me realize that you have to break these knots (components) out and practice them in isolation until they're solid. So I got more ropes to tie to and put a big plastic cleat on a 2x4...
Camping: For my rain fly I find I do two things for the stakes. First, I will only sew grosgrain loops, no hardware, and NO grommets. If I want my fly to the ground, I stick a stake in a loop spin it around a couple times and stick it in the ground. Done. For guy lines: Paracord tied to a grosgrain loop (bowline) the line then will already be a loop ending in a rolling hitch. Then I'll do the same thing with the stake, just spin it around a couple of times in the paracord (to lock it in, maybe a few more spins to shorten the line) , stick it in the ground. I slide the rolling hitch up and down to change length, tighten it. So my guy lines will be a taut line next to a sagging one. Doesn't look 'boy scouty' but absolutely efficient and quick. (When I break camp, I'll just leave the paracord and rolling hitch attached to the loops. And while I'm going on. All my stakes have about 8" of orange paracord tied to them. I think I lost two mini stakes in two days while hiking in Dorset. I noticed I never had to search for the stakes that had the orange paracord on them. So I just put a tail of it on the rest of my stakes. About 50 more days of camping, never lost another stake. At home I tape bright construction marking tape to remote controls so I can find them too. It works so well I can't be the first person to think of it.)
The knot with 101 uses, thanks as always for the info', DJ.
Ya!! And I’m sure people will add in a few more uses too!!
My pleasure and thx for watching
Thank you...Knots are tight!
Np!
Truly one of the best accounts I've ever come across. What's *knot* to like 🙌😎
Holy cow, thanks so much.
I’m wrapped up in this comment 😅
Dude you just helped me with all my shorts drawstring issues! I love your content man haha
Grea tip, thanks
Pretty creative 👍
Thx, I’m sure people will add to the uses too
Going to start practicing this one right away. Seems like a good one to know!
Awesome!! im glad
I live in a city somewhat famous for its sailing conditions... in fact the sailing part of the Olympics were held here once... and we have regular racing regattas. The events are often set up a fair way from shore, and the boats are towed out to the starting line with a power boat trailing a long line behind. The competitors tie along that line with a rolling hitch and release when they reach that day's course. (at least that's what I was told when taught this "knot" when taking a sailing course). Thanks for reminding me of this... beats having to keep prusik loops in my tarp bag.
Ohey this is the upgrade I needed to make my "three knot rope ratchet" that I use to tie stuff down in the back of a moving truck even more secure. 😄 A double half-hitch works well for the ratchet, but I have had slips in the past that resulted in things becoming unsecured.
Hitches are _AWESOME_ and that's my go-to to tie most things off! There's the old quote from David Lynch: "Two half hitches around the horn will hold the devil as sure as you're born!" There's the good old truckers hitch of course. The Knut hitch ("Ka-newt") Is one I might need soon, to climb a tree from a suspended climbing rope. Using a pair of Knut hitches, one above the other on the same line, you can tie foot loops in the tag ends and use them as alternating "steps" to climb the free standing line and add a carabiner to one of the hitches as your safety harness point.
I learned the rolling hitch midshipman's hitch variant as a way of tensioning tent guylines.
Incredible!!!!
Great knot! Thank you for sharing ❤
You are so welcome!
Awesome ❤
I use a rolling hitch every time I anchor my sailboat for the evening. After paying out the anchor chain and setting the anchor, I tie a rolling hitch on a 15' length of 1/2" line around the anchor chain. The other end of the line goes to a bow cleat. The anchor chain is then paid out further, allowing the cleated rope line to take the load off of the windlass, greatly reducing anchor noise and wear and tear on the windlass.

That’s so awesome,, thank you for sharing your knowledge
My pleasure! Thx for watching
looks like a solid hitch. i'll be making use of it when I go camping that's for sure!
Fantastic!
I've known about this knot for many years, but didn't realise all the various uses it has.👍
Awesome!! I’m glad to bring ya a few new knes
very interesting. congratulation
I love your tutorials. Will your restrictor knot fulfill the same function in this case?
Very well illustrated knot tying, first saw it elsewhere this evening, but you show it much better, I am sure it will become one of my most used way to tie things up. I guess using this knot, it and a couple of lengths of strong cord you could use it as a way to climb a rope that is secured at top and bottom, or even as a safety line - come fall arrestor? If you did not have something even more secure to use, like perhaps Prussic knots made with loops of strong cord, or made for purpose arrest devices .! 🙄
Stay safe, regards Niels.👍
That is nice.
Nice 👍
Love this new Knot 🪢 can't wait to start using for camping trips .thank you
wohoo! Enjoy!!
Good callout to the midshipman's hitch.
Everyone who uses knots should know at least one tension hitch and the Rolling hitch is a good one.
I use only loops and loopholes plus some twigs for tarp fixation for years.. but this baby will be tested :) Thank you
I used this knot to tie up some loose ends. My neighbor did not see it coming!!!! 😁😁😁😁
the one i needs !!
Oh thank you, someone who knows the difference between a knot and a hitch
I use them interchangeably at times just for general public to understand.
a rolling hitch is a clove hitch with an extra turn, making it more secure due to the extra friction from the extra turn, a very useful knot,
Just Wow its simple the way you show it yet so usefull :O i love it
All British fire brigade recruits are/were taught to tie this knot. We use it to haul a length of hose up a building then tie off the line in the building or to the ladder. Nothing like the pressure of tying it to a hose in front of an assessing officer and a squuad of old firemen.
Great Video - super instructions. Especially the examples, because: what is it good to know, how to make the hitch, but having no idea for what and when to use it?👍👍👍👍
Greetings
Christian 🙂
Very nice. subed
We used 2 of these to cary an absolute monster of a tree trunk (like 9ish meter long and .75 m in diameter or so) about 200 -300 meters over 2 small creeks with like 15 ppl or so.
I wasn't familiar with this knot but I soon will be. I've always used a tautline hitch to do the same and I have it used everywhere especially on drawstrings. One of these on each side of your handlebars will hold your bike uptight in the truck.
Nice to know
