Default Significant Knots, or Knotty Knotty

Actually, I do appreciate Mark's reply, though I expected some explanation
of why these knots belong in a 'significant' collection.
I was originally vague on purpose. I expected this newsgroup to respond

with
nautical bias for obvious reasons. I do want this particular project to be
nautically oriented, but might want to try another without nautical bias.
But that's for another time and another newsgroup.

Thanks to all,
Doug

I learned a fair number of knots in scouting. Got the badge to prove it!
The knots I actually use in boating are the overhand, square, clove (and
related cleat hitch), lark's head, half hitch (and double half hitch),
bowline and sheet bend.

I tossed in the shadow box links so you can see what a few other people have
done with the same problem.

I won't mention the knots I use for fly-fishing for fear of starting a major
flame war!
