Knut

[Steve Bullman]

Where applicable please could you list your chosen application for the knot in question, size cord you prefer, length of cord(or loop in some cases), pros and cons, etc etc...anything you can think of really. Thanks

This is my favourite knot with a hitchclimber, with a 10 tachyon eye to eye this self-tends and is very quick but grips like a blakes when you need it.

Twists the rope less than a VT

often referred to as the obvious anagram:blushing:

It can self tend without a pulley therefore a good transition knot for climbers progressing from blakes or prussik to hitchclimber with vt or other.

Can you show some pics? I've been trying a knut and not sure about it yet, maybe I have it set wrong?

hey Rupe,

 

This is what i use anyways, think maybe i tie it backwards then. i do that with all knots. you can adjust the speed and of how it bites by adjusting the lower half hitch, higher for more bite and lower down for quicker and better self tending.

 

 

the thinner you rope the better the self tending but slips alittle more with this amount of wraps on. add one more for 11mm or put the half hitch tight too the wraps. Hope this helps.

 

Cheers MOG
