This quick and easy knot, used to attach a swivel to a
 fishing line, is not as secure as more intricate knots, but
 for lighter lines and smaller species it works well. In the

 used to hold the mouth of a sack closed—and was called,
 appropriately, the sack-binding knot or bag-binding knot.
 The swivel knot has been listed in knot books dating back
 more than fifty years.
