Great ideas. At 5:01, please see The Ashley Book of Knots, Sheet Bend #66 vs #67. Your version is like #67, but #66 is considered more secure.

Good video - especially the Bowline under tension - but as for the joining ropes under tension - for one thing, it's not under tension if you're holding the tension off with your left. The simple mod is create a loop in the side of your bend. Then you pass the other end through the loop and let go with the left and you're truly trying your knot under tension. But all other things in the vid are - as always - excellent info; best knot tying channel on YT.

So interesting to see the sheet bend tied that way in the 2-point harness; I've never seen the bight used 'on the bight", in mid-rope; I've always only seen the crossed loop tied mid-rope, with the bight being the working end. Now I wanna practice that variation! Seems like it's best used when both sides of the bight are under roughly equal tension.

if you are using dyneema ,the Weaver's knot ( tisserand ou demi tisserand ) can slide and untie under important load . if you plan to use the weaver knot in a critical application like caving or climbing ( most likely to put a 5mm dyneema (often used for natural anchors ) and a 8 to 11 mm rope together ) always let 10 cm or more behind the knot or a " pecheur double " knot after to prevent the sliding ( there is also a lot of other ways to prevent slide ) . Never forget how slippery the dyneema can be, especially if it's wet or muddy .

Note that if you turn the securement loop one more time before passing it through the "window" you create a Simple Simon; the easy to do, more secure cousin of the sheet bend.

I'm interested in self tightening knots, like say I'm stringing up a clothesline or something and I have a loop around two fixed positions, I would love to make a knot with a loose end I can pull to tighten it without it coming loose. Another practical application for my particular situation since I'm living out of my truck is lines for curtains to block my windows at night and hang things during the day

You can try a taut-line hitch or a midshipmans hitch (just search KZitem for those knots). I'be been using them several years in general camping just to set tarp lines or tents. You can use it between tal foxed positions by previously tying one end of your rope with some kind of fixed loop (for example a simple bowline) and then tying the taut-line or midshipmans at the other side. If You need more tension You could use a truckers hitch. Search foto the "automAtic truckers hitch" in First class amateurs videos. It's an awesome hitch since You don't need to use the end of the rope and it locks up as you apply tension so You don't lose any. AND it's very eady to untie. I changed My way of making My truckers hitch since i saw his video and i'm not going back hehe. Good luck!!

That's great, although in many cases you can perform a bowline or 8 loop in the rope in your left hand,no need to lock the bigh once you put both together...

well if you tie a Canadian jam knot in your drawstring, after you put your pants on you will never have to tie them again...just pull the string and tuck end away...the only other clue i will give out is that the drawstring must be free running i.e. not sewed down...

Please reconsider using the first, most common pronunciation of bowline. You’re so good with knots. It would match up better. It’s an extremely old word, plus it’s nautical. This makes for a need for a nod to tradition. Bo-lin.

I think I have a better method: Tie a stopper knot in one end. Tie a tightenable loop in the other end. Then lift the weight for a short time, put the stopper knot through the loop and pull it closed. You really only need to lift the weight for a second and nothing can go wrong. . If you don't tie the stopper knot at the very end of the rope, but 10 centimetres in front of it, you can do all this even with just one hand!
