Tree Climbers Knot Book

Description

Arborists are one of the few professions left today that still rely on knots to complete their daily work. Tree climbers, in particular, have re-discovered the friction hitch and many of these knot variations have been optimized for tree work. Dirk Lingens, a German arborist and self confessed knot junkie has collected and recorded the knots commonly used in the arboricultural industry today. The Tree Climber’s Knotbook is an essential collection of tree climbing knots – including a few exotic and uncommon versions. If you are working in the tree care industry or are interested in knots, this book is a must have!
