Description: I wanted to test how some common climbing knots behaved when cross loading the loop. So I rigged them up and pulled. nnThe rope is a pretty well used Tendon Indoor 10,4mm.nnThis is by no means an exhaustive knot test. I might be used as an indication of what can happen when cross loading the loop in your tie in knot.
