Reeds Knot Handbook

Part of Reeds best-selling handbook series, this handy pocket guide is suitable for experienced sailors, but also provides novice sailors with all they need to know to master the most useful knots and splices that they will need on a regular basis when at sea.

Within the Reeds Handbook, each knot gets a double page spread with a clear photograph showing what the finished knot should look like, with step-by-step diagrams accompanied by straight forward instructions about how to tie it. Also included is helpful text which describes each knot's use and why to use it, how strong it is, and how quickly it can be tied (and untied), plus what type and thickness of rope can be used to tie it with.
