[edit] Duplicate knots
Is that right about duplicate knots? I haven't read my copy cover to cover, but I thought that each entry was original. --Blackcap | talk 03:16, 4 October 2005 (UTC)

- Thanks. While doing some research before rewriting Constrictor knot I found eleven occurances of it in ABOK, and there may actually be more.
- There are numerous examples. Sometimes it is an alternate way to tie the same knot. Sometimes it is an alternative use for a knot tied the same way (ie. Rolling Hitch 12 entries in the index or Overhand with 19 unqualifed index entries and 4 additional ways to tie, probably the champ) Ccalvin

The 'Further Reading' gives the publisher as Faber & Faber. My edition is Doubleday. Should both be listed? Same ISBN. Ccalvin 20:29, 20 December 2006 (UTC)
