Knotter - Troop 376 Knot Ninjas

Overhand Knot	Perhaps the most basic knot, useful as an end knot, the beginning of many knots, multiple knots make grips along a lifeline. It can be difficult to untie when wet.
The loop knot is simply the overhand knot tied on a bight. It has many uses, including isolation of an unreliable portion of rope.	Loop Knot
Square Knot	The square or reef knot is the most common knot for joining two ropes. It is easily tied and untied, and is secure and reliable except when joining ropes of different sizes.
Two half hitches are often used to join a rope end to a post, spar or ring.	Two Half Hitches
Clove Hitch	The clove hitch is a simple, convenient and secure method of fastening ropes to an object.
Used by Scouts for adjustable tent guy lines, the taut line hitch can be employed to attach a second rope, reinforcing a failing one.	Taught-Line Hitch
Slip Knot	A simple knot of many uses. Also called the noose knot, it is a useful snare for small animals.
