The Ashley Bend

Here is yet another interlocking overhand knot for joining two strands of cord, like those of the previous few blog posts that I've done this week.

This time I've tied the Ashley Bend, ABOK # 1452, from the "The Ashley Book of Knots".

This bend can jam after being under tension, so having a marlinspike handy can help when untying those knots that don't want to come apart using just ones fingers/fingernails.

This example of the Ashley Bend is tied in green and brown paracord.
