Top Seven Knots and the Use of the Windlass Kindle Edition

I thought this book was pretty good as far as giving practical advice and applications for the knots it talks about. It's a quick read and fairly easy to follow. However, the Kindle version is a bit weird. Illustrations tend not to sync up with text and it tends to jump around if you try to go back and forth trying to see what the author is talking about. Plus the illustrations are really sketchy and low in detail. Those two factors made the book hard to follow. I would recommend it to people who would like to know more about knots and applications for them. I even learned a new know from this book.

A very in depth study of the application and history of useful knots. Every person who spends time in the outdoors can benefit from this book

Very informative. A bit hard to follow sometimes but does spell things out.

great reference, addressees and teaches basic knots that can be used . The pictures clear articulates the basic principles of knots

This is a must have for any woodsman! Learn these knots, and you're good to go in any situation. Only downside is the quality of the illustrations.

Very concise, very focused, very much a needed survival skill. Ignore this knowledge at your own risk. Better to know and not need then need and not know.

Another good one by Kochanski. Illustrations could be clearer. Looking for a friend to help with this. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.

This one is a keeper for your library. If you don't have Scout training, like me, this one has come in handy.

Important in this day and age of digital dependance, that we don't forget the skills we knew before the PlayStation generation.!!

now all I need is a boat

Knots everyone should know.

A must have read

Nice details on a few knots and their uses, but I wish there were more actual knots instead. A couple of the knots might be a bit too complex for the beginner but all gave some use in the wilderness. Consider this to be a supplement to Mors' Bushcraft book and others he has published, and in that role this guide is a good one.
