  • I'm getting the tag ends right, but the knot doesn't stay in place, and slids out of place.

  • Currahee...

    It's not really meant to be a tie off as much as a "wilderness lock". It was generally used to tie off the top of a bag (of money?) to see if someone had gone into the bag.

  • Hey David, just wanted to ask you about that theives knot, if it is supposed to be used as a primary knot like the square knot. I am having problems tieing it, because everytime I go to tie it, it come loose like the first example you gave about the square coming loose. Thanks.

  • Great info on knots! Love the part with the squirrel! We have about 5 and one raccoon that come to the house and get treats. We do not do it all the time because we do not want them thinking we are a constant food source for them.
