How to Tie a Grief Knot

Video Transcript

Now I'm going to demonstrate a Grief Knot. A Grief Knot combines a granny knot and a thief knot into one knot that's almost impractical. But I'll show you a trick to it. If you'll look down here, you'll see that I've got my two lines coming up. and what I'm going to do is I'm going to take this one, and I'm just going to go ahead and pull a bite into it like this. And I'm going to take this and pull it under. And what I'm going to do is I'm going to go ahead and wrap this around my working end. And then back over the top of this, my standing end. And I'm going to pull it through. Now its going to create, almost a figure of eight knot here. But as we pull it, you can see that this knot just pulls right out. Now the trick to it is, go ahead and do this again, put my line in there like so. This one around, twist it over, back over and through like this. The trick is to pull this knot and then kind of roll it by twisting it like so. By pulling on both ends. Now this is great if you are going to use it for lightweight application, but if you put a lot of strength onto it, it will just pull out. I mean it will catch and bind. But its just not strong enough.
