Over 200 knots are scored for strength, reliability, ease of tying (and untying) and usefulness. Step-by-step photographs show how to tie each knot, and demonstrate how they can be used, such as in the rigging or for tying boats up. Knot know-how sections give extra information about the knot's history, plus helpful tips and techniques, including choosing the right rope for the right task and using the right knot.
