8 of 25Do you plan on adding more fishing knots? Been looking at the same ones for years.
Great knot making app!
Very simple and easy to work. Great app to have in case you need it!
I don’t sail as much as I used to, but I come back to this app every couple of months and, with a cocktail, I review all of the ones that I’ve ever used. You never know when they’re gonna’ be helpful! (I think this review has been sitting on my phone for a decade… And I still keep coming back to the app every couple of months. Eventually, I will be able to do a bowline on a bight without referring to it!)
I am a knot novice, but it’s been easy for me to apply these knots. The step-by-step illustrations are super clear.
I don't use this much but live it when l do!!
Everything you need to know about knots taught in the simplest way possible.
Hands down the best knot resource in the WORLD!!! Thanks for your work, Grog!!
