Have you ever
wondered what a knot looks like rotated 40° or
maybe 90°? Or maybe you want to see what a
Trilene knot or Constrictor knot looks like from
the back? Use your finger to spin the knot and see
how it looks from any angle in 3D!
Choose from 92 different knots and see how they're tied in incredible detail. Watch the knot draw itself and pause the animation to see where the virtual rope goes in and out and around. (Something about a rabbit and a hole and a tree right? ) Zoom in on the knot to get a closer look or flip it around for another perspective. Can your old school knot app do that?!

Superb in every
way - 5 Stars!
I'm a fairly handy guy (surgeon)
and rely on several knots in my practice.
Nevertheless I'm pretty hopeless at learning new
knots and remembering them, even though I'm a
sailor and do some fishing. Knots 3D is the
answer. I love every aspect of the app.
Great App - 5 Stars!
I really like this app,
I have 4 knot apps, and I use this one the most.
As a firefighter rope skills is a must and this
app helps keep me "knot prepared". The zoom and
step through the knot using a finger gestures is
real handy. The author updates this app with new
knots often. I recommend this app.
