This knot is used to make a non-slip loop in the end of a
rope. While it is used for climbing and rescues, a Figure-8 Loop Knot often is best in those
situations.
Remember to end the knot with the tag end of the rope inside the
loop. And thanks to those scouters and boaters who helped remind
me of this point. -- bg
