 The Knot Master April 12, 2007

Step-by-step instructions on how to tie various types of knots are paired with great photos showing the details of the knots.
 Excellent reference March 18, 2007
This is an excellent reference book for anyone needing instruction in knots. The photographs are very clear and the book is well-organized.

This is a great book for those learning knots or looking for instructions on how to make many different knots. Each knot has several pictures with text to help you learn the knot. It is a very handy book for the Scoutmaster.
My only wish was that the book would have been spiral bound so that it would lay flat. So I took the book and had a spiral binding put on it!
Very helpful and easy to read. August 31, 2005

This book has excellent illustrations to help learn knots. There is a brief text instruction for every knot in the book. I think the text instructions are somewhat lacking, but the fine illustrations more than make up for it. The text also gives some information on what each knot would typically be used for, which is very helpful. The book goes into great detail on fishing knots (ie tying a very large hook to a rope) which I find annoying, but could be very helpful for a deep sea fisherman.
An excellent manual for new boaters August 9, 2005

I gave this book to a friend who just bought his first boat and he refers to it all the time - uses it for practice too. The pictures and illustrations are very clear - which is the most important part. You never have to ask "how did that piece go there?". The key is to practice a handful of knots so you can do them in the dark, or in a storm, when you really need them.
