Default Help me identify 'Iron Knot'. A 'self releasing knot'.

2013-03-03-03-03-... ::

Yes, it's an old thread, but with an unanswered question, still.

It would help to post this to the IGKT's forum at
www.igkt.net/sm, under Practical Knots.

And it would help to have some details on :
1) what rope you've tried this knot in (or in which
you saw it tied & used) --or did you even do this,
or otherwise only get some tying instruction but
never actual-factual usage?

2) how quickly/simply tied it was (just to try to better
understand what might be its brevity of structure);

3) how many strands of rope ran through the hypothetical
bucket handle --just one, or a bight (pair) ?!

These clues might guide some imagination towards re-discovering
the mysterious-so-far "Iron knot". --or something else as effective.

Cheers,
