Great find! Some of the climbing knots are amazing. Yes, I did try to do some of the ones that I wasn't familiar with.

Then there's the other one, guaranteed to make the foredeck crew on a SORC boat nervous when tieing a bowline: " The rabbit goes up the hole, 'round the tree, and back down the hole".

Don't know if a website but if you can find a copy of "Ashley's book of knots" you will have it all.
