Falconer’s knot: the worlds best one handed knot! – YouTube
Posted by jpluimers on 2026/04/13
[Wayback/Archive] The Worlds BEST One Handed Knot! – YouTube which “The Bear Essentials” in this video calls “the thumbs up knot” but in fact is the Falconer’s Knot (which in turn is a one-handed way of tying a Halter Hitch) and also covered in his longer video [Wayback/Archive] TOP 10 BEST Knots for Life – YouTube.
The Thumbs Up knot is in fact a different knot which you can for instance use at the start of a paracord keychain: [Wayback/Archive] THUMBS UP! – YouTube
The short video explains the Falconer’s Knot well, but I do more like the step by step pictures in [Wayback/Archive] The Modern Apprentice – How to Tie a Falconer’s Knot
A video that also explains it better is [Wayback/Archive] Tying the Falconers Knot – YouTube.
