The knife plate connector is to be used at the top or bottom of a wood column. Two downloads are available. One with the stand-alone connector, and one with it attached to the bottom of a glulam column. The glulam column with integrated knife plate is easier to use, but if you wish to place the knife plate on the top of the column, or use in a different column family, the knife plate family file should be used instead. All parameters are shared, so they can be used in schedules. The detail of the model has to be medium for the plates to appear, and fine for the bolts to appear.

See http://dylanbrowndesigns.com/resources/parametric-timber-connections-for-revit/ for an illustrative guide on how to use the connector.

The size of the bolt components is driven by the bolt diameter. The resulting sizes closely follow standard U.S. bolt sizes (1/4" - 3"). All parameters are shared, so they can appear in schedules. The geometry is simplified, so there is no chamfering on the bolt head, nut, or threads on the bolt shaft.

They are face-based families, and the detail level in Revit must be set to fine for them to appear.

The bucket bracket is to be used at the ends of a wood beam. Two downloads are available, one with the stand-alone connector, and one with it attached to the ends of a glulam beam. The glulam beam with integrated bucket bracket is easier to use, but if you wish to use different parameter settings for each side, or want to use the bracket on a different beam family, use the standalone bracket family file. All parameters are shared, so they can be used in schedules. The detail of the model has to be medium for the plates to appear, and fine for the bolts to appear.
