Betting that's the Trucker's Hitch[1] which is a knot (or more like a combination of knots, really) which everyone should know! I tend to use an Alpine Butterfly[2] for the loop, but that's partly because it's a personal fave.

- leephillips 6y agoSeconded. The trucker's hitch is super useful, but most people have no idea that such a thing exists. Knots are good technology. Everyone should know a few, and this one is in the top four. But I agree with others here who've noticed that you need to practice frequently to keep from forgetting them.
- tmoertel 6y agoAlong the lines of the trucker's hutch, I particularly like the Versatackle knot system: https://notableknotindex.webs.com/Versatackle.html https://notableknotindex.webs.com/Versatackle.html
