…well every outdoor climber anyway. If you plan to only climb indoors at climbing walls then you’ll probably never need most of these knots. If you’re an outdoor climber, it is highly recommended that you have these 5 climbing knots in your repertoire.

Figure of Eight Knot
The figure of eight knot is probably the most commonly used climbing knot, and is the first one that you are taught when you learn to climb.
It is an absolutely bomb-proof knot, especially when you add a stopper knot, and as such is the first choice for most climbers for attaching the rope to their harness. It can also be used as part of your belay setup if you have run out of karabinas (I’ll show you how in another post).
