Product Description
When Two Knotty Boys, Dan and J. D., began teaching rope bondage together in 1999, they discovered that most people learn best when they're shown — close up, step by step, and repeatedly — how to tie basic knots and combine them into bondage techniques. It is this learning process that they duplicate in this book. With the help of world-renowned photographer Larry Utley, they use over 750 photos and captions to explicate the soup-to-nuts techniques for turning great knots into great bondage that is safe, sensual, attractive, and effective. Readers can learn at their own pace, review whole techniques at a single glance, or even lay it flat on the table (beside their blindfolded partner) and follow along as they tie. Two Knotty Boys Showing You the Ropes appeals to those interested in improving the quality of their sex lives, not to mention aficionados of bondage and discipline/sadomasochism (BDSM), both curious newcomers and serious players alike.

 Is pretty bondage possible? You betcha! December 23, 2006

This is the book I was looking for... only downside was the black and white photos versus color. Beyond that it was s super book for learning some of the decorative *and* useful ;) bondage methods. Had purchased several other books to learn the basics but while the results were functional, they were pretty.
This book is basic enough that you don't have to be super advanced. Lots of steps-by-step pictures and solid instructions. Wish I had found this early. Between this book and Chanta Rose's book, you cover all bases for good solid functional and pretty bondage!
 This is the book that has been missing!!! December 16, 2006

At last, the Two Knotty Boys have given us the book that will allow people to easily understand how to safely incorporate rope bondage into erotic fun. Granted there have been other texts published on erotic bondage, some have been better than others, but none had all of the elements needed. The "boys" got it right.
If you are in the least bit interested in rope bondage, you must get this book. Look at the price, it's a steal. I actually feel bad about paying such a low cost for such a valuable asset. At $16.95 the 37 step by step techniques comes out to .46cents per tie. You'll look great as you tie them and the knots are fantastic looking. Oh, and the person tied will be comfortable, safe, and helpless. What more could we ask for.
The "boys" have a perfect background, a industrial rigger, a climber, both backgrounds require safety as the basis for everything. The both love bondage and have taught many, many classes. This means they have learned how to teach the techniques to hundreds of others. It shows in the layout of the book. Simple step by step photos that match the written instructions. No matter what the level of the reader, this book will make you better.
Don't wait, get this book now. You will not be disappointed. If there was an award for BDSM books, this would win book of the year.
Great job, destined to be the definitive text on erotic bondage!!! 5 stars..at least.
 Another good reference is always welcome February 22, 2007

After only having gone thru the book once or twice, I can say it's well worth the money. More color photo's would have been nice, but not a deal killer.
There were a few typo's, like saying clockwise and meaning counter-clockwise, but otherwise there is good information to be had. I'm skipping over the decorative knots myself (spending all my time as a rope-person telling newbies that you DON'T need to know many knots), but I can already see some good ties that I wasn't already using.
Simply put,a good deal for the $$...

I have read several books but this was the most fun, and enjoyable. I also found the instruction very easy to follow, even on the more difficult of knots.
I have spent more money on books that didn't have as much information, or easy to follow.
Rope curious? This book THE place to start. January 15, 2007

I had purchased a few other titles about rope bondage and each one left me wishing for more concise information, more pictures, clearer instructions and a quick path to start playing with rope. Two Knotty Boys Showing You The Ropes is exactly what I had been looking for; so much so I was compelled to write my very first review. If you are looking for a great introduction to the basics that is fun to read and easy to get into, get this book.
