How To Tie Popular Knots

Halyard Bend

Thanks to Assistant Scoutmaster Schlegel of Troop 456, Palmyra, PA for
informing us about this knot. The following is their information as it was when
it was sent to us. Thanks again, Patrick, for helping to make this site one of the best around!

"Having been a SM2 in the US Navy I became familiar with the Halyard bend.
As a signalman this securing style hitch was used to secure the halyards for the ships signal flags."
