    How do I tie a hard knot?

    You can use a double knot, which means to follow the steps of tying a knot twice. Or you can look up more difficult, but sturdier, knots.

    Generally, I use a double knot, as it holds everything and is really quick and easy.

    How can I learn to tie a sheep shank knot?
    Community Answer
    Community Answer
    Fold your rope to the length you want to shorten it to, then make a loop in one end, slip it over the folded bight next to it and tighten it. This is actually a Bellringer's knot. Make a loop in the untied end and slip it over the bight and tighten it for a Sheepshank knot. Unfortunately, it is not that secure in modern ropes. Use with care.
