Hi
99.9% of people may view this as a silly question and say any noose knot such as a Honda, Poacher, running bowline would all work fine, and i can see their point. However, does anyone have any references to the types of knots traditional used to create a snare out of natural fibres in different Aboriginal cultures i.e. not a wire snare, but a snare made from plant materials etc. The reason for asking is that when using natural fibres the type of knot used greatly effects the overall strength of the snare, also i would like to know if traditional snares were free running or locking?
As always thanks in advance
