My wife bought me a shadow box in which to place a collection of knots.

If
you've ever been to Horatio's in San Leandro, CA you know just what I

mean.

At any rate, I'm interested in knots of significance that I should

include
in this collection. I do have Ashley's Book of Knots. It certainly

appears
to be the definitive source on knots, but there is no list of

'Significant
Knots'.

I expect the completed display will be between 15 and 25 knots.

I have chosen 3 knots for this project so far. They a Figure( of )

Eight,
Reef, and Bowline.
Why? Because they seem to me to be essential knots to know.

Which knots would you include? How about your 'top 25'? And if you care

to
explain, why should the knot be included?

Please note that my 'reply to' email address is not valid, so if you're
inclined to reply please do so to the newsgroup.

Thank You,
Doug
