How To Tie Knots


Slippery Sheet Bend

  The Slippery Sheet Bend is simply an ordinary Sheet Bend with a bight left in the smaller rope. This bight makes it "slippery" because it can be untied quickly, merely by a tug on the free end of the rope. It is a valuable knot for use when you expect to tie and untie it often.
