Split Square Knot - bondage manual
articles and tutorials Bondage tutorials for beginners Rope bondage knots tutorial
Essentially a Square Knot tied around two standing ends of rope, this knot will prove its worth when finishing off our body harnesses. The fundamentals of a Square Knot are two half knots (also called overhand knots), alternating right and left or left first and then right. The Spilt Square Knot maintains the functionality of this knotting technique while incorporating the structural integrity of two taut ropes.
Rope length: Any length
Rope diameter: Any diameter
Start off with two rope ends dangling side by side alongside two taut ropes (shown in the middle).
Behind the taut ropes, cross the right rope over the left rope.
Bring the rope on the right-hand side up and tuck it over the front of the loop created.
Pull the rope ends downward firmly.
In front of the taut ropes, cross the left rope over the right rope.
Bring the rope on the right-hand side up and tuck it over the back of the loop created.
Tighten the knot by pulling both rope ends firmly.
The top and bottom of the finished knot will be parallel to each another, but the knot itself will sit horizontally.
