Knots
Knots can make life on the trail much easier, but learning knots is always tedious. So here I give an overview of the knots I use frequently. I use a handful of knots that are easy to learn and provide added value on trips.
Bowline
The bowline is a useful knot for creating a loop. This loop does not tighten even under load. This way, for example, a strap can be lengthened.

The topsail sheet bend is a very useful knot. This knot forms a sliding loop that does not tighten under load. Thus, this knot is an ideal replacement for line locks and enables quick adjustment of tarp or tent cords.
