- Prusik Knot - Prusik Knot Loop Method - Prusik Knot Rope End Method 🛠
The Pusik knot loop method is tied using the Prusik knot in conjunction with the double fisherman's bend. The Prusik knot rope end method is tied in conjunction with the figure of 8 knot.
This knot is such a simple little knot to learn, and would be very difficult to forget.
The Prusik knot loop version is often used by bushcrafters to securely attach a tarpaulin to a ridge line.
The Prusik knot rope end version is often used by climbers. I have seen this knot (2 or 3 in number) used to help the climber to ascend a rope. ascending or "Prusiking". Two or three Prusik loops are alternately slid up the static rope
The beauty of the Prusik knot is that when load is applied the knot will grip fast to whatever is is wrapped around.

Wow…
Johnny, this was a 4 for 1 !!!!!!!
Gentlemen, you just threw in 2 prusik, one double fisherman and a figure of eight in one video. What a delightful one!
That was one of the best knot videos I've seen yet. Spectacular Job!
How is it that I've been watching you for years but missed this one?
I would like to say............ because you're not paying attention??? 😉 😉 😉 At least you have found it now.
First knot I learn. Basic tree climbking👍🏻
This is the best video on tying it that I have found. . Thank you!
Thanks for taking the time to view and also make a comment, very much appreciated.
very well explained! and your diction helps to fully understand what you are showing!
Glad to hear that! Thanks for taking the time to view and also make a comment, very much appreciated.
The figure 8 technique is new to me and I’ll have to try it. I’ve used the loop method a lot tying horses to highlines. I even have a bit of paracord worked into their halters so if I’m in the bush, I can make a Prusik if needed.
Love to hear when knots are used in real life scenarios.
thanks for sharing borth

Thank you

Thank you for your video i am just starting to learn knots and your video was very helpful
Hooray, I just love it when someone else pick up a rope and does something proper with it. Are you just a practical knotter of decorative also?
life changing , awesome , cheers mate
Cheers. What are you going to use it for?
@@KnottingKnots for fly camping with tarp set up. cheers
never seen it done in the figure eight before will have to see about that one
It would appear that this one is very popular with the military. Thanks again for commenting!!!
Great knot. I use the second knot but instead of the figure of eight I tie the bowline. Thanks
Thanks for taking the time to share this information, I always love to hear about knots being used! Are you more of a practical or decorative knotter?
Nice

Hi I just subbed.nice work! I use the prusik loop obviously for climbing. But works really well with tightening up my clothes line. I use paracord ( good uv rated stuff). Then any paracord into a prusik and tie a truckies hitch around the timber posts and pull like a string line. If I'm lazy I bought some rope ratchet with internal scamming device ( ascender style of teeth internally) when I use 2 together I can pull over 120kg on the line. Any tighter and I will pull it my wall mounted clothes line which is never in the sun.its one of my favourite slide and grip knot. Cheers from Australia. Thank you for the tutorial!
Thanks for taking the time to share this information, I always love to hear about knots and cordage being used in action!
@@KnottingKnots thank you!
Hi johnny as a retired tree climber that was the predecessor to all the mechanical climbing aids now available,it holds under tension but when not under tension it will slide
Good to hear these stories Gary. I have also been told by the sailing world that they are used to assist in climbing the mast. Always good to hear from you. I take it that you are a practical knotter of old, ever thought for having a go at decorative work?
Hi I am an active treeclimber in NL and this knot is still actively used here. I prefer it over the mechanical alternatives in any case. Sometimes it is difficult to slide the knot up though. If one makes the knot with 6 loops and then removes 2 loops at one side it will still hold but it slides up more easy along the climbing rope.
4:22: You can also use this knot to make an adjustable necklace. That's why you might want to pull the knots apart.
Your 2x fisherman’s knot should have 2 x’s on the back & 4 parallel
AIR ASSAULT!

Cool video Johnny. Did u se my edc vid
Yes, I made a comment under Knife Monkey a few days ago. I am sure that was the last one I saw of yours.
Great info! What size rope do you use for these loops? Thx again
I think it really depends on what task you are trying to achieve with the Prusik loop. In a buschraft environment, normally Paracord or something similar is used on tarp ridge lines. If in a climbing situation, I will not say, as it could be dangerous if used wrongly. I take it that you are more of a practical knotter than decorative?
Johnny Debt yes would be used for climbing
Jeff DeLuca:
This knot is a great friction knot to use for climbing! I use it all the time for climbing both rock walls and even more so when climbing trees. In regards to your question on rope sizes, it is important to use this knot/loop with rope sizes that will cause it to function correctly. A good rule of thumb is to make your Prusik Loop with rope which is several millimeters smaller than the line you will be wrapping it around. For example I use a 10.5mm climbing rope, and for my Prusik Loop I use accessory cord between 5-8mm (+/- 1mm). If you use ropes which are too close to the same size the Prusik will not grab correctly and could allow the weighted knot to slide down the rope. On the opposite side of the spectrum, if you use line which is much smaller than your climbing rope it could grab so tight that it cuts and/or burns through the climbing line causing a fall. When using the Prusik for climbing, only use accessory cord which is weight rated for climbing, (Never use paracord as a backup friction knot for climbing)... That being said if you use rope sizes which function correctly together the Prusik is an extremely safe (bomb proof) friction hitch to use for safe climbing. So again a good rule of thumb is to use smaller rope for your Prusik which is about 2-5mm smaller than your climbing rope. I hope this answers your question. Cheers!
it is NOT a knot, IT IS A HITCH.
............. as some bends are not bends. I think it all stems from when and where certain knots came about.
A hitch is a type of knot.
nope, it is a configuration for a specific purpose but it is NOT a Knot.
If you want to tie the knot of Prusik Knot, please consider tying "Double Fisherman's Knot" first.
If you want to tie "figure 8 knot", please do not tie the Double Figure 8 knot in the video, we suggest you should tie "Flemish Bend Knot" or "Double Fisherman's Knot".
"Flemish Bend Knot" is different from "Double Figure 8 knot".
The "Double Figure 8 Knot" shown in the video.
Even if you can avoid its knot, the knot will be deformed after the rope at both ends of the knot is pulled with force.
However, if you tie a Flemish Bend Knot, the knot will not be deformed and will be stronger after the ropes at both ends of the knot are pulled.
Instead, you need to tie the Flemish Bend Knot.
The double fisherman's bend you did was not quite right. The Xs in the knots face should each other, not away from each other. This way the Xs interlace. I'm not saying you're method is weaker, but it shouldn't be taught this way:
www.netknots.com/application/files/5515/3674/5559/double-fishermans-2.jpg
Also, it's more efficient when tying to use twice the width from thumb to pinky finger to measure out each end of the bend. This way you don't have to readjust and they are the same.
