Is there a good website out there for viewing what a knot looks like and how to tie the knots?

 

Looking for a site that has multiple knot options, and not just climbing types of knots. Just curious what's out there.

Actually what you want is called a book. wink.gif I don't know a great knot website, but The Ashley Book of Knots has over 3900 knots, and how to tie them. Very cool.gif

I own Ashley's Book of Knots. The knots he has as climbing knots are laughable. For example he has a modified Slippery Hitch for single strand rappels. You just shake the rope and it comes loose. hellno3d.gif A few of the commonly used climbing knots are found under other names and some are not found, for example the bowline with Yosemite finish.
