Bowline


Universally used to make a non-slipping loop in a rope   (i.e., for mooring lines over piles and bollards, securing a line to an anchor, making a line fast to a ring, shackle, etc.). Two interconnected bowlines make a very strong and sure method of joining two ropes. A bowline is very strong, will not slip yet is easy to untie.
