Falconers Knot How to Tie (One-Handed Knot)
How to Tie the Falconer’s Knot
The Falconers Knot is used to secure a bird of prey to a perch. Actually when I say secure, the bird does have a fair amount of movement until it gets to the end of its tether. The whole idea of the falconers knot is that it can be tied with one hand, as the bird of prey usually occupies the other hand, making it difficult to use two hands to tie the knot.

The reason that I learned to Tie the Falconer’s Knot
When I was in the earlier stages of doing my YouTube videos, I was out one frosty New Years Day morning, walking with my trusty hound Bear. I ended up slipping and managed to break my arm. So at that time I felt that I needed to find some knots for my videos that only required the use of one hand. That is how I stumbled across the Falconer’s Knot. I would love to be able to tell you that I do own a Falcon.

I’m wanting to learn how to do the falconers know using only my left hand and non-video. All I’m finding is using the right hand to make the knot. The rescue group I’m with uses the right hand as the perch not the left. I’m right handed so using the left hand and fingers is not as easy. Any help would be appreciated. I like non video instructions because I learn better by reading and doing. Do not always have a phone or computer with me.
