🔍 Key Concepts

• Bend vs. hitch vs. stopper knot and what each is used for • Characteristics of a good anchor attachment knot (security under strain, easy to untie) • How different knots behave when pulled in a straight line on a metal ring or shackle

💭 Think About

• Think about which of these knots is specifically designed to fasten a line to a ring, shackle, or anchor and hold under heavy, steady load • Consider which knots are likely to jam badly or be too weak if used to secure an anchor line • Ask yourself which knots are primarily for stopping a line from running, or for temporary securing to a post, rather than a permanent or semi‑permanent anchor attachment

✅ Before You Answer

• Eliminate any knots that are mainly stopper knots used at the end of a line to keep it from running through a block or fairlead • Eliminate knots that are mainly hitches to poles or posts, where the load direction and surface are different from an anchor ring • Focus on the option that is a secure bend to a ring or anchor that holds under heavy strain but can still be worked loose if necessary
