Pro Knot  Outdoor Knots - Waterproof Plastic Fan Pack

I was looking for an easy way to practice knots and learn more about knots and this is perfect! What's even better is it small, waterproof, and portable!

I always forget what knot to use and how to tie it. These cards are pure gold. I keep them attached to my purse with a biner so I always have them. The cards also had a few knots I have never done before. It looks like these will be durable and last a long time. I took one star away because it didn't come with a biner. Knots included are: bowline, tattling hitch, stopper knot, square knot, water knot, timber hitch, buntline hitch, rolling and clove hitch, constrictor knot, half hitch, sheet bind, prussic knot, double fisherman's, cleat hitch, truckers hitch, figure eight, mooring hitch, butterfly knot, and bowline on a bight. Only recommendations would be to add a few cards about lashings, if that is possible, and most of all a biner. This would be an excellent resource for a scout or avid camper.

I know how to tie several knots, but lets face it... there have been times when I needed to tie something off in a strange manner, but I couldn't because I couldn't recall how to tie the required knot. On occassion, I'd find myself trying to remember some step critical to a knot's performance, "Do you go over the bight or under?... Hmmm..." I needed something quick, easy, light weight, & durable. Over the years, I've owned several books & booklets on knot tying. Unfortunately, some gave instructions and illustrations that were so complex I couldn't even tie the knots I already knew! Moreover, paper books are not practical in the outdoors. However, this card set is different. Really, it is the best I've ever come across. There is a large enough variety of knots to satisfy most needs without overwhelming the novice, and the directions are VERY easy to understand. This card set is so small, light, & easy to use that I keep two sets in my sailboat, one in my sea kayak, and one in my home. They've saved a trip or two for me and have become trusted companions on the water.

I use this card set to help teach my cub scouts the knots they are required to learn. The kids understand these cards better than my instructions. It gives instructions/illustrations that are easy to understand and gives a short description of what the knot is used for. They are very durable and waterproof, light and easy to carry in my shirt pocket for quick reference.

This is a nice pocket reference. Well made and easy to use. I did pick it up to work on some knots that I struggle with and it has helped for a few of them. It does a good job as a reminder. At times, the arrows and directions are not as clear as you would want to learn the knot - otherwise it would have been a 5 star review.

This is a useful quick resource to have with you on outdoor adventures. The waterproof plastic cards show how to tie dozens of useful knots for camping, boating, or whatever you need to tie down or lash together. Bought this for my son to have in his backpack to learn another useful outdoor skill when we camp and hike. Would be a 5-star product if it came with some line to practice with.

Gave this as part of a birthday gift for a 3rd grader. He told my child in class that he liked his gift. I think that is a good review ;)

I’m enjoying learning about different knots which is helpful for camping. Some of the illustrations are a bit hard to understand though.

This is one of those things you didn't know you needed until you saw it. Have referenced it numerous times for practicing knots and even making specific knots in the field.

This is a neat little guide. I was looking for something to do while camping that didn’t involve electronics, and practicing knots turned out to be an engaging option. Interestingly, the first page includes detailed step-by-step instructions, but the subsequent pages only provide a brief outline, which requires a bit more imagination to figure things out. I recommend having a basic understanding of each knot before attempting to use this guide. The only real complaint I have is that the grommets interfere with some of the words on the corners.
