  • The Running Bowline is a member of the noose family, as well as being a member of the Bowline group. The Running Bowline is a very strong and secure noose. It slides extremely easily along the rope and can be undone very easily even if the Running Bowline was under extreme pressure.
    The Running Bowline is often used by arborist's to secure heavy branches for lowering or securing the rope to. However, it is used by sailors, bushcrafters and other such groups as a general noose.
    ABoK - It is so good a knot that the sailor seldom uses any other Loop Knot aboard ship. According to an old nautical authority it “is used for throwing over anything out of each, or anything under water.” Any lumber that has dropped overboard or any rigging that has gone adrift is recovered by its means.
    In this video, I will show a number of different ways to tie the Running Bowline, including two variations using the Marlin Spike Hitch. There is also a very secure version of the Running Bowline that also incorporates a stopper knot, made also via the Marlin Spike Hitch
    Also known as Cowboy Running Bowline and Dutch Running Bowline.

    Running Bowline - lots of good ways to do it. Here is one more. Tie a bowline, you choose the method . Fold the bowline over the standing part of the rope. This works as long as the rope isn't too stiff and the bowline is tied large enough to fold. Of course won't work if you are tying it around a captured item like a pole. This might be the overhand flip method that Greg Letter mentioned.
    I like the marlinespike technique as long as the knot is dressed correctly. I also like the technique that takes the free end and twists it around the standing part to form the loop. The stopper knot is too much of a bin and snag risk for me if I want a no fail Bowline I tie it with a Yosemite finish or a double turn. Thanks for the video.

      Ah yes, being left handed presents it's own issues..................... I think one advantage of being left handed, don't they live longer? Seriously though, having to switch it in your mind as you follow, must be rather taxing.

      In the early days, I would just tie a knot and then post the video online, but I often found many people would suggest other ways of tying a knot. I now try to find a few variants so as to cover all the bases. Thanks for taking the time to watch and also leave a comment, it is very much appreciated - thanks.

    As someone who just learned this and tried all methods, I found the Marlin spike hitch version the simplest and also the fastest IMHO as someone who just tried the variations many times. I’m a complete novice who could only tie an overhand knot before this week and have no axe to grind either way. Cheers!

      Yes, it would be really great to see the belt. Yes, that is one problem with doing videos, sometimes you have to make two of an item. Or the other thing I do is, make a video of making it. Then at the end when it is made, show it in the video of what we are going to make, as though we are going to do another one. I think I know what I mean???

I now am looking into knots to learn them also as I have lost rope and or spent a lot of time trying to remove bad knots I have made with things other than my fingers. I will be using yours as a refresh and review to practice before I need such knots again.
