THE EVER YTHING KNOTS BOOK

Hunter’s Bend (continued)

3 Tuck the running ends through the turn in opposite directions.

4 Tighten by taking out slack with both the standing parts and the
running ends.

If you use two identical ropes to tie the Hunter’s Bend, it will hold
well and securely. Another benefit of this knot is that it unties readily.
