  • Artillery Loop - Man-Harness Knot - Harness Loop - How to Tie
    ABoK #153. The Artillery Loop also called Man-Harness Knot and
    Harness Loop, is tied in the bight of a rope. It is used for a hand- or
    shoulder-hold in hauling field guns into position, and also in assisting
    horses either in uphill work or when mired.

    One reason I like this knot is that it can be tied one-handed very quickly, starting with a one-handed marlin spike hitch.

    I think as a follow-up, you should probably cover the Alpine Butterfly as I personally believe it is a superior mid-line loop.

    I knew an older lady from the Appalachian Mountains, fifty years ago or so who used a series of these in tarred cord to run trotlines across a small creek. She'd attach short fishing lines and hooks baited with corn, to each loop in the tarred cords. She ran half a dozen or so trotlines on her property up in the mountains to feed her family.

    This is a great loop knot that does not jam. I work as a fisherman and sometimes we put these knots under extreme loads with a hydraulic winch. If you were to tie a simple overhand knot you would never get it out! the knot turns into one solid mass! Like a ball of solid plastic! Especially poly rope! Forget about it!! 😂😂

    Speaking of loop knots. Ashley's Book of Knots number 1021 is pretty interesting. It lets you create an adjustable size loop at the end of a line. You create the loop using something like a jam knot then you tie a stopper knot to freeze the size of the loop. Put a quick release in the stopper knot and the whole thing comes apart with a single strong pull.

    Mired: Stuck in the mud.
    BTW, just watched a workman string a 1-inch safety line along a walkway, using this knot.
    He uncoiled the rope as he walked, at each stanchion, he'd tie a loop in hand, then drop it over the stanchion.
    Working at a walking pace, he strung 30 yards in a few moments. Clearly, the man had done this task many times before.

    i found myself ending up with this loop as the goto inline loop for tying the truckers hitch. i use the truckers hitch an awful lot and tried every loop there is. the ones i used the most were the bell ringer, the slip knot, the alpine and this one. all the other loops were either too complicated to tie instantly, or not suitable for heavy loads and vibration.
    the alpine ist good but i need too long to do and undo it. when i use the truckers hitch i need it quick.
    the bell ringer is just to shaky. it's nice an quick but it's not vibration proof and not suitable for heavy loads. i use it sometimes for static tension with low loads.
    the slipknot i used the most because i can tie in in under 1 second and it can hold every load. however it's not very well to undo when used with heavy loads, and causes too much attrition when used frequently.
    this one however is also tied in a breeze, i use my own quick tie method with which i can tie the artillery loop almost as fast as the slipnknot using only one hand. under heavy loads it doesn't bite too much and can be fairly easy undone afterwards.
    i learned it from you and want to thank you for that. hopefully we'll see another great video from you these days. i wish you all the best, and hope you are perfectly well.

    It looks easier to tie and untie than either the alpine or farmer's loops and liking my knots symmetrical it wins there. If it can pull gun carriages and horses it's plenty strong enough therefore it gets my vote over the aforementioned loops.

  • @navalapolin4736

    First, it was very instructive, as someone said the butterfly knot its safer, and I do agree, however this can be too, the way you dress up the knot at the end it's the failure and makes it vulnerable, specially if you use it in a slippery rope or small diameter one, not criticizing but if used to hold your life on it, it better be done correctly or use the butterfly or even figure 8 in a bight.

    I like using the phrase "Dress the knot" when I'm teaching tree trimming ropework. The phrase tends to evoke an image of tidying up, organizing or making presentable an important procedure in the servicability of life saving equipment. The presentation can be seen, it can be heard, and can be imagined better with the use of thought provoking terminology. Not unlike the bunny running around the tree, memory phrase. Bowline knot

      The alpine butterfly has a structure made by passing the bight through two crossed loops rather than the single shown here; it makes it more stable under load and less likely to roll over, but you can still untie it easily by pulling on the loop ends.
