Distel??

[Cary Gibson]

looks like a distel to me man...

[Rod]

have to say it looks like a distel but i dont think it is one, the bottom part looks different

[Rod]

on the second picture the right hand side rope should pass under the rope that goes to the left to be a distel

looks like the one i made up the other day.

[Johny Walker]

yeah your right, its a distel tyed wrong then haha, I have done the same thing and it works as a friction hitch quite well, grabs nicely but doesnt "break" like a v.t, making it slightly harder to advance.

Would prefer it on a lanyard rather than main line.

looks abit like a distel but the bottem wraps are different.

it works safely imo, it is slightly harder to advance than other knots but it always grips the rope (unlike some other knots) and who sais i shouldnt be using it.
