How to Tie the Rigger's Bend How to Tie the Hunter's Bend This is a superb knot for joining together two ropes. The Hunter's Bend is relatively easy to tie and is secure. However, it can sometimes be a little difficult to undo after it has been loaded. However, this is not always a bad thing. Ashley's Book of Knots on Bends: "A bend unites two ropes, or two parts of the same rope, generally at the ends. Its purpose is to lengthen the rope. In twine, string, thread, yarn and cord, where the bend is to be a fixture (as a Weaver’s Knot), or else where the material is to be used but once and then thrown away, as in parcel tying, bends that jam and refuse to untie are permissible, or even desirable. But in rope, which is a valuable product, the bend should be a transient feature and the knot should render easily to the prick of a marlin spike. A heavy hawser or cable should be tied with a bend that will respond to the light tapping of a mallet or fid. In such material a marlin spike should be employed only as a last resort for, once abraded, the life of a rope is short. The larger the rope, the easier the bend should open.
