Stumbled across this today. Pretty cool if you're into knots. I climb, I fish, I tie knots in surgery, I have even known to sail a bit and get rad when tying down loads in the back of my truck. This is a clean little site with hundreds of knots in an index with easy to follow videos.
I think I'm gonna start tying in with a McDonald Brummel Splice from now on when climbing......

They even have an app!

Except watch the video of a how to tie a Figure 8 on a bight. Not the fast easy way at all. They have you reweaving the knot. So whoever is making these videos not a knot expert!

This is awesome, Micro. Thank you!
I'm Knot-challenged, and anything more than a figure-8 or tying my laces on my boots pretty much confounds me.
Wish I was joking.

Cool thanks! You're being serious though, right? We can believe you? You're not making a joke that's going over our heads?
Nicely said Warbler. Everywhere I look, everything confirms what I already believe. Yea me! I'm so right! Let me explain ...

Have the app, love the app!
It even has history, pros, cons, alternate ways of tying, uses and more for each knot.
Dorking out on knots is great.
