What are the knots you feel are essential?

 

In scouts we teach:

- 2 half hitches

- taut line hitch

- square knot

- bowline

- clove hitch (both at the end and in the middle of a line)

- sheet bend

 

I also think it's also important to know

- figure 8 on a bight

- double fisherman's knot (which means you also know the barrel knot)

- prusik

 

Would you replace any on that list?
