I was surfing Duluth Trading and noticed they had a bunch of new things, including a Swedish fire steel and Rust Buster ($5), but this caught my eye in particular.  Tying knots is one of those things that, like math, if I don’t do it often enough, I have to be “reminded.” (I won’t say how many times my equine friend untied himself by simply backing up until I got the dang knot down for the hitching post…I can tie it in my sleep now, but he has learned how to untie the correct one anyway. Clever cheeky monkey.).  This looks handy enough for me to pop into the truck or take camping.  And it’s cheaper than the big books of knots, most of which I probably wouldn’t use…though I am proud to say I learned to tie a two-strand Matthew Walker knot…some of us are knot challenged. ;D
