Knotting method

Common knotting methods are as follows:

1, rabbit ear knot.

Rabbit ear knots are often used to balance two ground anchors when climbing, and can also provide redundancy. Compared with many other double-loop knots, the rabbit ear knot is firm and safe, and the size of the rope loop can be easily adjusted by moving the rope from one ring to another.

2, eight-character knot.

In many cases, the figure-eight knot is a general stop knot, not an ordinary backhand knot. In sailing and rock climbing, the figure-eight knot is very important because it needs to prevent the device from falling off.

3, eight-character connection knot.

The figure-of-eight connection knot is usually considered as a strong knot. It uses a simple method to connect two ropes with similar diameters, which is usually easy to untie. A figure-of-eight connection knot is a figure-of-eight knot, which means that a figure-of-eight knot is tied at the end of one rope, and then the second rope turns side by side along the corner of the first rope, but in the opposite direction.

4, the eight-character back is knotted.

The figure-of-eight back knotting is often used in rock climbing and cave exploration (the rope tension is moderate), and a fixed rope loop is formed at the end of the rope or around the object. Unbinding is relatively easy and firm, but it will become difficult to unbind after overload. When the knot must be tied to an object that is not easy to loop, you can use the method of "rewiring".

5. icicles.

An icicle knot is a good knot. When the weight at the end of the rope is applied in a specific direction and parallel to the pole, it is connected to the pole. When the knot bears a huge load on a smooth surface, it can still remain in place. The knot can even be hung on a tapered rod (hence the name "icicle knot").
