Welcome to my channel How to Knot and in this video, I will be showing you how to tie a scaffold knot. The scaffold knot is typically used in sailing, fishing, camping, climbing, and general purpose applications. This is a very secure and strong adjustable slip loop which is able to grab firmly on an object. A thimble can also be added to increase strength and rigidity, this can referred to as a hard eye. If exposed to an excessive load, this knot can jam making it difficult to untie.
First start by creating a bight in the one end of the rope.
Pulling the working end back towards the loop and wrap it around three times.
Feed the working end through the loops.
Dress and tighten accordingly.
As you can see the loop is adjustable.
