One of the most useful knots to memorize along with "1 sec bowline" a reverse French bowline that you can tie in about a second with some skill. Good to know for a make-shift repel loop to put around a chimney or something to get down a roof in a pinch.
I learned about Whipping at a very young age. Ropes and my favorite using rawhide to protect axe etc handles makes the handles bullet proof or shall I say wife proof, LOL.This can be done with wire on cable end loops as well. No need for clamps.
@@innerbarkoutdoors Aside from the elbow grease it is easy enough to make. I did a video on that and for whatever reason I seem to alway need to make about a 1/2 a cow or moose in manageable pieces of hide a year. There is soooo many uses or it.

Rawhide works awesome and looks good, esp on lariats

No problem
Absolutely useless for synthetic rope like you have in your thumbnail. This whipping is for natural fibre rope.
I disagree
My synthetic ropes benefit from whipping, keeps them from fraying. Easy fix to an annoying problem.
