I like the way the knot is done here, because in this way you can make it both in the middle or in one extreme of the rope. Nice and easy! Thank you very much!
Like your energy. Right from the start... I can hear your excitement. Enthusiasm can be very powerful. Keep it up. Glad that you've done this particular knot... it's been one of the hardest for me to figure out.
'Test' videos? I noticed that he doesn't show how he ties things from a natural perspective; but from the perspective opposite of a PERSONAL POINT OF VIEW. In either case, though... I'm amazed at his skill. And I'm impressed that from those kinds of videos; you were able to work out not only how he did it; but then were able to adjust the method to lay it on the table for us.
I feel like spending so much time tying and untying and examining all these knots and hitches; has helped to develop the logical side of my mind a bit more. The more complex the knot...the more my brain has to work. But an interesting thing has begun happening after weeks or months of watching, tying, untying and trying to understand the underlying principles... I can tie much more complex knots a lot faster and understand more knots at greater speed; and am able to group them in my mind. In short, I seem to be gaining a kind of intuition when it comes to knot tying. Additionally, I've been taking a look at rope magic tricks, and sailing specific knots... such as the cleat hitch. I'm learning WHY you tie things a certain way. I think that is really important for anything that affects your life; or your livelihood or someone you are watching over. Also... I've been taking a look and practicing various decorative knots and paracord braiding. I'm having a blast!
The Star Knot always has an effect of great thought for me. Tying it is now fairly easy, but going around tightening it is another. I always seem to struggle to remember where the cords go within the actual knot.
I'll have to take a look at this knot. I love a challenge. I'll probably wind up watching several different methods of tying it, in order to understand it more fundamentally. Thanks for the recommendation, Johnny!
Yes! as a boatswain special decorative versions were used for the admirals gig. They were the same but different. tying stores below decks really helped me appreciate what is actually happening with rope when you show back up after a storm and the XO is looking right at you!! not discounting survival skills and horsemanship rope skills either I was a boy scout in the USA and used rope every day in every career till now i tie myself off in the kitchen lol!
Got it! Fantastic! the funny thing about these dreary old knots is that many of them are designed to get you out of a scrape when the wind has just ripped away the spars and you are trying to save the mast. So, in order to properly appreciate the use of knots you must tie them quickly in front of a huge fan in a freezer with lights out all the while being doused continually in frigid water!! How tame this sounds too compared with an evening at the Horn!
A few weeks ago, I was at a nautical themed restaurant which had a display of knots. I recognized all but the Spanish Bowline. I thought immediately: I wonder if Johnny Debt knows that one. Voila! I guess you read minds as well as teaching knots. Well done.
No flies on me mate!!! You saying that me me think of something else. I sometime find that when I produce a new knotting video on a particular knot, then all of a sudden I see other sites that have done it just before or after me. Sometimes other knotters seem to line up like planetary alignments. Did you by any chance get some photos of the knot displays?
Johnny Debt sorry no photos. That would have been smart. Actually it was a large framed piece with a picture of a famed yacht and about 10 different knots hanging in the mens room. I had one job to do and I failed to take he
at us on the Russian fleet "Spanish Bowline" is called - "Botsmansky knot". I knew other way of knitting. But your way is much more convenient! Thanks))
I like this one. Don't know what i would use it for at the moment but there must be uses especially as it can be tied in a loop of rope. Many thanks Johnny
Mmm Health and Safety would have a field day, if you take a look at this link, you will see a number of uses for the Spanish Bowline: igkt-solent.co.uk/spanish-bowline/
have you done or could you do a video on when you run out of cord while netting, how to add/pick up again with a freshly filled needle without having a knot in the middle of a web
If I recall, the Purse Net Video does show a change of colour half way through. I have just set up a play list just for netting, so will be filling it with little short one off videos.
I have not been to his site in ages, thanks for reminding me to pop over. Thanks for taking the time to view and also make a comment, very much appreciated.
Holy crap! I remember playing with a loop of rope in elementary school (~20 years ago) and getting really fast at making a Jacob's Ladder. That feeling kicked into my fingers just now and I can tie this in about 5 seconds!
This is what I love about tying knots, it brings back memories and also creates new ones!! Thanks for taking the time to view and also make a comment, very much appreciated.
F'n 'ell, Johnny. I got it to work first time. Nice one - thanks. I looked at the alan lee channel. Lots of stuff there, but i could only see videos of him testing or untying knots. Interesting anyway. Great vid - Ta v much
I like it when you can tie a knot first time. Sometimes I watch a video and it takes many attempts to watch and suss out what on earth they are doing. Glad that you liked it.

Ah yes, I can see now why you would say that, not too dissimilar to the Spanish Bowline loop wise. I think it is also a good knot as it incorporates a couple of other knots. Have added this to my to do list. Thanks for letting me know.
I wish you hadn't asked that question............. I went away to check, messed about and forgot how to even tie the knot, after a bit of messing it worked both ways for me. Thanks for taking the time to view and also make a comment, very much appreciated.
Hello Peter, thanks for taking the time to make a comment. If you take a look at this link, you will see a number of uses for the Spanish Bowline: igkt-solent.co.uk/spanish-bowline/
I like the Double Lineman's loop much more, the Spanish bowline is less secure - the size of the loops can change relative to each other when pulling hard on one loop. I also prefer double lineman's loop over the Double Alpine knot, seems to use less rope.
I am just a mere messenger of the knots that I am learning. I think with most knots, people have their trusted faithful's and stick to those to complete most tasks.
This knot is easier stood up and just let the two ends hang down in front of you. Really good one to learn................ well, just to show off 😉 😉 😉

This is awesome . I love it when people take “complicated “ knots and make them simple like this
Yes, this one is so easy. Thanks for taking the time to view and also make a comment, very much appreciated.

Thanks for showing an easier way to tie this knot. I use it to make a shoulder harness for dragging deer out of the woods.
Good to hear of another use for this knot. Thanks for taking the time to view and also make a comment, very much appreciated.
Great video, great presentation! What an incredibly handy knot 🪢
Thank you kindly! Yep, this is a lovely knot to look at too.
Like your energy. Right from the start... I can hear your excitement. Enthusiasm can be very powerful. Keep it up. Glad that you've done this particular knot... it's been one of the hardest for me to figure out.
Yes, this one used to be a real pain to me also. Since learning the easy method, I have grown to like this one.
I checked out Alan's channel... guy is amazingly fast at tying these kinds of knots.
Yes he is, but I sometime wonder about some of the test videos.
'Test' videos? I noticed that he doesn't show how he ties things from a natural perspective; but from the perspective opposite of a PERSONAL POINT OF VIEW. In either case, though... I'm amazed at his skill.

I used to tie this the old way, but since learning the new way, I can not remember the old way.
omg! a Russian person! Hi! How fantastic our Earth! Yes??
@@AlbuquerqueImaging Yes)) Fantastic, I myself cannot get used to it. Digital praise))
I like this one. Don't know what i would use it for at the moment but there must be uses especially as it can be tied in a loop of rope. Many thanks Johnny

Hang tomatoes near the sunside they will be over 2$american in spring
Wait, how do you know which leads to pull through?
have you done or could you do a video on when you run out of cord while netting, how to add/pick up again with a freshly filled needle without having a knot in the middle of a web

Lol how are you John. Im going to make anouther vid on how to properly connect paracord do you have any tips.
I would show the problems of just welding two bits together i.e. easy to break and then go onto this method: ruclips.net/video/UwUcm6CUdN8/видео.html
Since you're already using twists to accomplish most I this, why not start with twisting a bight instead of passing over one end in the beginning?
F'n 'ell, Johnny. I got it to work first time. Nice one - thanks.
I looked at the alan lee channel. Lots of stuff there, but i could only see videos of him testing or untying knots. Interesting anyway.

Ah yes, I can see now why you would say that, not too dissimilar to the Spanish Bowline loop wise. I think it is also a good knot as it incorporates a couple of other knots. Have added this to my to do list. Thanks for letting me know.
Nicely done. Thank you.
Thanks Dan, always nice to see a comment from you!
I like this one!
Does the beginning right over left or left over right matter?
No, I don't think so. It was mainly a way for me to log it into my memory banks!
Is it correct that at step 1 you can do left over right or right over left? It doesn’t matter right?
I wish you hadn't asked that question............. I went away to check, messed about and forgot how to even tie the knot, after a bit of messing it worked both ways for me. Thanks for taking the time to view and also make a comment, very much appreciated.
初めまして、スペインもやいの時2:40のところでクロスをセンターに位置するとメガネの時に左右を引き出すと左右対称に型が整いますよ。よろしければ一度お試し下さいませ。
Hallo what do you knot with it?
Hello Peter, thanks for taking the time to make a comment. If you take a look at this link, you will see a number of uses for the Spanish Bowline: igkt-solent.co.uk/spanish-bowline/
Thanks Johnny for the explanation, these are good examples.
I can not speak English, I always translate that with the computer :)
Good to see you here Peter. Some of my subscribers are Japanese or Chinese and that does sometimes make it rather more complicated. ;-)
Sir where this knot is applied ???
Here is an example of how it used to be used: igkt-solent.co.uk/spanish-bowline/
Nice vidio i like tutorial bowline

This knot is easier stood up and just let the two ends hang down in front of you. Really good one to learn................ well, just to show off 😉 😉 😉
It works! looks like a certain train wreck pull the leads and BOOM!
Actually, there is no difference whether the left line is over the left or the left is over the right.
He actually says that in the video 👍🏽
Ha ha! I thought what a terrible/unclear presentation then I realized I had set the playback speed to 1.5x.... dohhhh.
I watch all videos on 1.5X or 2X Funny how on some videos you do not notice any difference??
even more confusing
First
I suppose it is breakfast time in your part of the world?
