SIBERIAN HITCH KNOT (EVENK KNOT) // Quick Release, To Attach a Rope Around Object, Tarp, Tent Knot
The Siberian hitch (or Evenk knot) is a hitch knot used to attach a rope to an object. It is a type of slipped figure-eight noose. The hitch is known for having a tying method suitable even while wearing heavy gloves or mittens in cold climates. As a slipped knot it can be released simply by pulling the working end of the rope.
History
The hitch and its associated tying method were recorded in use among the Nenets people of northern Russia in the early 1990s. The knot’s ease of tying and releasing while wearing cold weather gear was cited as a primary advantage.
It was also used by Ray Mears during his bushcraft television series.
