It's the clove hitch's scary big brother

One of my favorites. I always thought of it as an overhand knot under/in a clove hitch.

When you break it down, thats what it looks like.

That is what it is -- a modified clove hitch. But you are going to have a messed up time if you need to have tension on the line while you are trying the knot. It is a pretty knot as long as you are just going to show the knot but no practical application for the knot

​@@knotknuta clove hitch can be tied while maintaining pressure. This knot can not so easily because it requires going under the line that has the tension

We had a knot when i ironworked they called the apprentice knot. It was a kind of dangerous way to lower buckets of bolts to a lower floor. It was tied in a way where it would pop loose when the bucket hit the floor. 😂

Very beautiful

I like to describe this as starting with a clove hitch and wrapping around the first loop

Why wouldn’t you just tie a clove hitch with a safety

This grips a lot more tightly. Clamp it down enough and you will have to cut the rope to ever remove it. Clove hitch is better in 95 percent of situations though

A clove will roll out or slide under a load unless you tie it off with half hitches. This knot pins the tail under the wraps to help prevent it slipping. Although being a much cleaner knot i would most certainly not trust it under heavy loads.

Make do daily.. and you can do it👍👍👍👍it's cool ,.....brother

I thought this was gonna be the clove hitch again.

I like using the constrictor over the clove hitch because when you tension the constrictor hitch it holds very well. I will be posting another video of the constrictor hitch being tied a different way very soon.

This can tighten enough to replace a hose clamp in an emergency repair.

Thank you bro

Clove hitch with the free end under.

Eh, Clove hitch with a half, add a bite if you like. Won't bind.

I like using a rolling hitch, it holds well and unties easy. But I guess it might serve a different purpose.

Great demo ….good for tieing a gunny sack closed…can be hard to untie!

Muito bom

Nice

First time seeing it done this way

Right! That's like someone putting their finger on it when you're tying the knot.

Yes, it is. Holds a lot tighter than a clove hitch.

Simple à regarder, mais difficile à retenir.

Honestly, I think every tutorial on tying this knot should come with a major disclaimer(s): a) Once tensioned, it can't be untied, and b) don't use on any body parts!

This is called the cobra constrictor. A regular constrictor uses three wraps and comes up under the middle and locks that way

I heard that a British surgeon (who sailed) was using this knot in surgeries before he had ever seen any one else use it. So it may have been created by many users after playing around with the clove hitch.

I had trouble tying up the dinghy when I was young ! Don’t know but it could come in useful - know you knots !

oo, so that won't just come off? seems like it is not really fastened on there... what are some good uses for this knot?

A constrictor **knot** is not intended to function as a **hitch**.

Similar to a Timber Hitch.

Just tie a clove

Or just tie a clove hitch

Knut does not tell what the properties of the knots are, so what you can use the knot specifically for. I do not subscribe Knut but others

Great audio, and video quality, but this instruction is almost useless because you don't explain what it is used for, it's strengths and weakness,what other knots are applicable in its place.

With short videos I have only 60 seconds, not enough time to explain uses. A lot of ppl have commented on their uses of this knot. I like to use it in the place of a clove hitch and it works well for tying bundles of pipes together.

Why dont you describe it as "first, make a clove hitch"

showing a knot without explaining its use cases is just a waste of time

Ok knot, but lousy teach. The way he moves misleads you where the open end of the rope should thread through.

This is a stupid clove hitch. And it’s also missing a safety.
