About the SlipKnot™
How It Works - The Secret of the Stafford SlipKnot™
It’s a simple concept, yet highly engineered to deliver results:
In the Unlocked position, the SlipKnot™ allows single or multiple lines to pass through the cylinder. In the Locked position, it holds securely in place* It's no problem even if the end of the rope isn’t accessible. The SlipKnot™ simply comes apart and can be reassembled precisely in the spot you need it.
