![]() ![]() Simple and secure, it is a harsh knot which can be difficult or impossible to untie once tightened. ![]() I remember someone at sea, showing me how to tie a "thief knot" it was a reef knot, or a square knot, but instead of the two ends being at the top, or at the bottom, one end was at the top, one end was at the bottom, he said "you can tie your kit bag with this, and if someone goes into it, you know they have been there" i said, but suerly, if you find some of your gear missing, you will know someone has been there "he said yes, but with this you know from looking at the knot if someone has been there, because they will replace your thief knot, with a reef knot, I said, "what if they replace it with a thief knot, because they know that game" he said, then you wont know they have been in your bag" i said, well not until you find out what is missing, so it is not much good is it, better off with a bycle lock. This page focuses on ultra fast ways of tying constrictor knots (such as the coil-twist-loop and Sofia methods), and on variations on the constrictor, such as the boa knot and the myrtle hitch. The Constrictor knot is one of the most effective binding knots. You would never get enough purchase on that knot, to keep a hose under any sort of pressure ie a garden hose connected. ![]() Its like puting an eye splice on a wire, everyone in my day could do it, but it wasnt (even then) as strong as fitting a couple of buldog clips on the wire to hold it. The meaning of CONSTRICTOR KNOT is a knot that consists of a half-knot under a single turn and is used to bind a cylindrical object and keep it from. I was in the merchant marine for many years, and most of that old stuff was used in desperate times, when they didnt have the right equipment, and is only used now (in the merchant marine) to show off you know more knots than the next guy. It is made similarly to a clove hitch, but with one end passed under the main loop. The free end of the suture is then passed over and under both loops to create the first throw of the knot. A constrictor knot is a harsh binding knot which is very difficult to undo. Stick to a hose clamp, a constrictor knot, is not something that you are going to clamp a hose with. The modified Millers knot (strangle knot) is similar to the Millers knot and is created by passing a strand of suture material around a clamped pedicle twice to create two loops, but without overlapping the loops. ![]()
