Book Reviews of Knots & Splices

Book Review: Knots & Splices
Summary: 4 Stars

Knots is Splices is an excellent introduction to the subject of tying knots. The pictures do a pretty good job of guiding you through the tying and the accompanying text gives you a fair idea of what the knot is useful for. If you are like me and you use some of these knots but only very occasionally this book will give you enough information to relearn the knot in an instant with just a glance at the correct page and picture. Doesn't include all the knots needed for an specific sport like climbing, fishing, or sailing but it does include a fair sampling of knots used in many sports and outdoor activities. Keep in mind there are several later editions of this book which may be even better.

Summary of Knots & Splices

Well-priced and extremely popular. -Ideal for any sailor both afloat and ashore. -Over 150 step by step photographs describe clearly the tying of over 30 knots and splices.
