Knoten - Outdoor Basixx

<p>The situations are varied and familiar to all lovers of the great outdoors: A clothesline is to be stretched between two tree trunks, the protruding end is only short - what is the best way to get the line tight? The canoe needs to be securely moored when stored on a quick-flowing river - which knot can I rely on? Whether you want to attach your accessories securely to the outside of your rucksack, a tent line has broken or food needs to be hung high up in a tree, there are always situations in the great outdoors where the obligatory piece of string in your pocket alone is not enough - a good knot is furthermore essential. The authors present 43 particularly useful ones. In addition to basic knots such as bowlines and weaving line knots, which every outdoor enthusiast should know, less well-known knots and variations are also shown and explained for which situations they are particularly suitable. 180 color illustrations help with the knots. A special feature of this book: additional drawings for left-handers make it easier for them to follow the knotting technique. Three tie knots have been added for the gentleman outdoorsman. </p> <p>Dieter Großelohmann, Manuela Dastig | Conrad Stein Verlag | 2nd edition 2012 | 96 pages | 180 sketches and illustrations, 14 color illustrations</p>
