Hitching tie

The hitching tie is a simple knot used to tie off stuff sacks that allows quick access as it unties quickly.

[1][2] To untie the knot, just pull hard on the free end of the rope and the knot will fall open.

This is simply a noose or slip knot, with the loop tightened around an object.

This is not a very strong knot for climbing or other extreme activities.
