TYING BENDS
Hunter’s Bend
Although most knots don’t result in publicity, this knot did when Dr.
Richard Hunter brought it to public attention, leading to the formation
of the International Guild of Knot Tyers in 1982. Today, this knot is also
called the Rigger’s Bend.
1 Start by placing the two ropes together, with the running ends
facing opposite directions.
2 Use both ropes to make a crossing turn.
