If you are into hunting, fishing, hiking or camping, the ability to know how to tie several different knots is one of the most important skill you can master. Tying knots might seem like a simple task but, the ability to tie a proper knot at the right time is crucial when you are in an emergency or survival situation.
Imagine you are lost in the woods, you set up a trap to capture an animal but you later find out that your bait escaped because the knot wasn’t secured properly.
