These things were a great buy, it’s also a fold out ruler which is equally as useful as the knot guide

I was considering buying this other one which is 12 knots vs 10 and intended for saltwater specifically, but it doesn’t have the ruler

The best resource is Youtube videos, but the problem is remembering what was on the videos when on the water. I carry a cheat sheet, The Fisherman's Ultimate Knot Guide. At $5 for a shirt pocket reminder it is helpful even if some of the knots on it are not. It's a little laminated hinged thing that features reminders on how to tie 10 common fishing knots.
I find 7 of them to be useful, but would not inflict nail knots on anybody. Oddly when I started, nail knots and the ridiculous nail knot tools were popular. They are actually harder to tie than jam knots like the blood knot or double uni, and are one of the only knots that requires a separate tool.
I once had a discussion with a hard core salt guy about which coffee shop coffee stirrers made the best nail knot tools. Not exactly something the average fisher is likely to have out on the water. His attitude was well you can use the capillary tubes off a can of WD-40, which raises all sorts of q's about potential line degradation, access, and wanton disregard for needing that tube next time you need to use the spray product. (Don't cut off a part of a tool to make a knot.)
Or, you could put a nail in your pocket, or buy some overpriced tool. But, there are better jam knots that do the same thing that just require some line twists and strategic tag end placement.
