Summary: Very reptitive
Review: I found allot of these knots repetitive and the diagrams not as easy to undertand as the others thought. I did like using the colours of the Italian flag (green, white & red) cute for the lines but there were some knots I never could figure out & I would have like a little more description of why you choose one knot over the other. The intro though is cool and gives some good insight on rope buying, it's okay, just knot a stunner.

Summary: Got em all this is the best.
Review: I have a bookshelf full of knot books and each of them have something to recommend them but my favorite is Morrow Gide to Knots. It has almost all of the knots in it you would ever want to tie and it is so clearly illustrated and explained it makes learning them easy. Want to learn knots? Take a rope and Morrow and put them in the bathroom.

Summary: A great book, knot kidding.
Review: I have seen many different knot books over the years and I have not seen a book that covers so many different kinds of knots with such complete descriptions of how to tie the knots. The pictures are very clear, the step by step instructions are helpful and easy to follow and there is an interesting description of the use of and history behind each knot. Most other books lack one or more of these aspects and takes away a great deal from what the book is trying to help you accomplish.I recommend this book for anyone that is interested or involved in sailing, fishing, camping, climbing or scouting. I have found The Morrow Guide to Knots to be the helpful, comprehensive and interesting. Whether you are looking for a book to help guide you through knots you need to know, or you just want to learn how to tie new knots, this book will be with you every step of the way.

Summary: Excellent general knot book for climbing, hiking, & sailing
Review: Like many people, I just want to learn to tie a dozen or so knots that will be useful to know in particular situations. I do a lot of hiking and I own horses, so getting to know some good knots beside the "double granny" would be a useful thing. I first checked my university library and checked out several books including Ashley and Eric Fry among others. Ashley is a great book but a bit too much information and not the book for learning HOW to tie knots. Fry's book is similar to the format of this book, but a good majority of the "knots" are actually splices and eyes (unwinding fiber rope to form an eye onto itself or splicing 2 lines together) and decorative-type knots for macrame - neither thing I need to know right now. The Morrow book is a good, general knot book for climbing, camping and sailing. Often there are several different ways shown to tie the same knot depending on the situation (line under strain, two handed, one handed, around a post, dropped on a post) or differently by another method. Illustrations are step-by-step and easy to follow with color coded rope. Inexplicably, some knots are shown tied with green and red rope, so color-blind people beware. Also, upon preliminary examination I noted that the tautline hitch (invaluable to keep a tent guyline taut) is missing. But between this book and some web resources, you will be all set. So, grab about 10 ft of a couple different diameter 6mm or smaller scraps (if no scraps, they are about a buck each) from your local outdoor store, keep them handy, and practice, practice, practice!

Summary: One of the most comprehensive books on Knots anywhere!
Review: Mario Bigon and Guido Regazzoni have put together one of the finest collections of knots in print. The many color photos, and use of different colored ropes illustrating the methods used to tie the knots are impressive. Overall, I would classify this book as one of the most comprehensive books on Knots anywhere!
