hawser bend
A hawser bend is a knot used to join two ropes together. It is a type of bend knot, essentially a double sheet bend, which is secure and easily untied, thus used especially for heavy ropes or cables, also known as hawsers in maritime terminology. It has a high holding power and is not prone to jamming or slipping under strain, making it ideal for moorings and towing purposes.
