<p><b>New page</b></p><div>Definition of '''Basic Knots''', why we care about basic knots, et cetera.<br />
<br />
==Reef / Square Knot==<br />
[[Image:Knots azreef.gif]]<br />
<br />
Mainly known as a Square knot in the United States. A '''reef / square knot''' is a good general purpose knot and the first knot many people learn. It is a flat symetrical knot used for joining two ropes of equal thickness. It is classed as a binding knot and should only be used when tied around an object, such as a parcel or finishing bandages.<br />
<br />
'''Also Known As:''' Reef Knot.<BR><br />
'''Type:''' Binding.<BR><br />
'''Similar To:''' Granny Knot.<BR><br />
===Applications in Rope Bondage===<br />
First Aid Slings and tying off ropes looped around an object.<BR><br />
===Strength===<br />
Retains approximately 45% of rope strength.<br />
===How To Tie===<br />
# Pass one end over and around the other, making a half knot.<BR><br />
# Tie a second half knot by tucking the right end over the left one.<BR><br />
# Pull on both ends to tighten.<BR><br />

<br />
===Caveats===<br />
Should not be used as a Bend (joining / inline) knot, as it is vulnerable to diagonal forces. Does not hold well if the two ropes are not of the same thickness. Often mis-tied to form a granny knot instead.<br />
<br />
==Granny Knot==<br />
[[Image:GrannyKnot.jpg]]<br />
<br />
A '''granny knot''' is often the result of a mis-tied reef /Square knot.<br />
<br />
'''Type:''' Binding.<BR><br />
'''Similar To:''' Reef Knot.<BR><br />
===Applications in Rope Bondage===<br />
None<br />

===Strength===<br />

<br />
===How To Tie===<br />
===Caveats===<br />
Should not be used, a Reef knot should be used instead.<br />
<br />
==Larks Head==<br />
[[Image:Larks head.jpg]]<br />
<br />
The Cow hitch is probably the simplest of the hitches, and is the least secure. Even tension must be applied to both of the standing parts of the rope, else the knot can work loose.<br />
<br />
'''Also Known As:''' Girth Hitch, Cow Hitch or Lanyard Hitch.<BR><br />
'''Type:''' Hitch<BR><br />
'''Similar To:''' <BR><br />
===Applications in Rope Bondage===<br />
Used to start a rope in the centre folded on the bight.<br />
<br />
===Strength===<br />
Rigging Charts state that a sling choked as a Lark's Head retain 80% of the line strength.<br />
<br />
===How To Tie===<br />
This method can be used when both the standing parts of the rope are available.<br />
<br />
# Form a bight and pass it through the ring from the underneath.<br />
# Pull the head of the bight downwards, and reach through it, grabbing both standing parts of the rope.<br />
# Pull both standing parts of the rope through the bight.<br />
<br />
===Caveats===<br />
<br />
==Bowline Knot==<br />

'''Also Known As:''' Bowline loop<BR><br />
'''Type:''' Loop<BR><br />
'''Similar To:''' <BR><br />
===Applications in Rope Bondage===<br />
===Strength===<br />
===How To Tie===<br />
# Make a crossing turn in the running end. <BR><br />
# Bring the running end up through it, and then around the back of the standing part. <BR><br />
# Bring the running end down through the hole in the crossing turn.<BR><br />
# Take out all the slack to make the loop secure.<BR><br />
