Water-resistant guide for outdoor enthusiasts. Whether you're involved in scouting, enjoy climbing, or survival activities. With this handy fold-out card, you'll learn all the knots for outdoor sports: knots for climbers, seafarers' knots, fishing knots, joining knots.
Knots have been used for thousands of years. It is even believed that early humans tied knots to survive. They are used to secure an object, make a snare or lasso, or to tie two ropes together. Almost every knot can be used for multiple purposes, yet there are also many knots with a specific function.
It is important to use the right rope or cordage (with the correct dimensions, length, and elasticity), but it is also important to practice knots before you need them in real life. This field guide will help you with that.
