List of bend knots
From Infogalactic: the planetary knowledge core
This is a list of types of bend knots. A bend knot is a knot used to join two lengths of rope. Although the reef knot can be used in this way, it is insecure when used as a bend and so is not classed as one.
The sheet bend is the classic bend knot.
