To make the Knot

First, make an “S” shape in the cord that incorporates the area you wish to shorten the cord by. The “S” shape is really 2 bights loops).

The center part will have no tension on it.

Form loops on the ends of the 2 bights

Put the two bights into the loops and then pull the loose ends tightly to tighten the knot.

Buntline Hitch

The Buntline hitch has been used by sailors to tie a rope to an item, popular for its simplicity and effectiveness. It’s very secure as shaking and pulling further stiffen and tighten the hitch rather than untie or loosen it. The Buntline hitch will jam when loaded to the extreme so it’s often formed in slipped form, with materials such as Dyneema Hollow Braid.

To make a Buntline Hitch:

Pull the rope around a pole or stick.

Make sure to make a full turn around the standing end and through the hoop closer to the pole.

Pass the rope around and under itself once more to complete the knot (which is actually forming a simple half hitch).
