Description
All the most useful nautical knots and how to tie them.
The Knot Bible app is your one-stop guide to tying and understanding the world’s most useful nautical knots. The app includes a selection of 50 knots each with:
- short descriptions and uses for each knot
- clear step-by-step photos
- concise explanations of how to tie each knot
- Knot Scores
Hitches: There are at least 30 ways to attach a line to a fixed object. Some are strong while others are secure. What’s the difference? The answer is in the app!
Bends: If you think a sheet bend is all you need to join two lines then think again! Sailors invented the carrick bend, the rigger’s bend and others for very good reasons.
Loops: The bowline may still be the King of Knots, but its tenure is under threat. Find out which are the new loops for new ropes.
Top 10 Knots: The most useful knots to know for quick reference.
Knot Scores
All the knots in this app are awarded a five-part knot score, with their strength, security, ease of tying, ease of untying, and usefulness given a grade from 1–5.
The Knot Bible app is based on The Knot Bible, a book by Nic Compton. Nic's book is the complete and definitive bible of knots for seafarers, featuring over 200 knots.

Ratings and Reviews
not the full book
The Knot Bible book (and ebook) contains over 200 knots but this only has about 50 knots. Also the knots are grouped by category but there is no search or alpha listing. This app does have some good introductory info from the book that most other know apps lack.
Terrible
The pictures are very hard to follow
