This is a simpler version of a _Quick-drop_ Timber Hitch - for the starting support of a rope crossing. Это более простой вариант _быстросбросной_ *удавки* - для стартовой опоры верёвочной переправы.
I use this knot every single day at work. Never knew it didnt have a name. I always thought it was just a slip knot variation. Super useful for what we do at work.
@@Rockheadsling i work in PVC sheet extrusion. Basically its like a giant hot play-dough machine. Like the ones that you shove a ball of clay into, and squeeze it through a die to make spaghetti or stars or whatever Well when we start the lines up. The plastic comes out of the die in a wide flat sheet. We string a rope through our roller systems. The last roller is a puller. Once were ready to string the line up, we cut a hole in the sheet and use compressed air to cool it off. Then we use this exact same knot to tie off to the sheet. Turn the puller on, and it pulls the plastic down the line until we can get it through the puller. After that, you just pull the tag and the rope slips out allowing us to get the sheet through the saw. There is a lot of tension on the rope between the puller and the sheet. And if the knot slips, or the rope breaks, then we are in for a long, hot dirty day with some not to understanding bosses. This knot never slips out, and it is never too hard to untie. (Untying the rope in time is critical too. There is little time and space between the puller and the crosscut saw. So the rope needs to come off easily and quickly.) Sorry for the long explanation, but the process really isnt that easy to explain in just a few words. Especially just for that 1 knot. Lol.
[Correction] No, you're right. It is 360 degrees. Ehr, once around (as shown) is 180 degrees. 360 degrees would have wrapped both sides of the loop, so you would have two crossings instead of one.

acidMother 27 if you don’t mind me asking. What work do you use the knot for?

acidMother 27 that’s awesome to hear! Thanks for the details, that gives me a lot more confidence in the knot.
AcidMother thank you for such a quality comment!
Cool knot! I'll use it sometime.
It’s like a Marlin spike hitch with a slip

Lol
I would call that a slippy hitch
It is a slipped hitch, so you are correct on both points!
It looks like a bow line knot,
So a Quick release bow line knot?
It looks similar to a timber hitch, how about calling it a “timber slip?”
Defense knot....!!!
