(Rdr from bowline) edit

bowline links here as part of directions on how to tie it "lighting fast". Unfortunately, this redirects to knot, which doesn't seem to have directions on how to tie a slip knot. *sigh* --Johnleemk 10:34, 15 Apr 2004 (UTC)

Rolling hitch edit

The link to Rolling hitch as an example of a knot that slides along the middle of another rope is incorrect. Rolling hitches are tied specifically not to slide, but to grip. -BonsaiViking 22:46, 2 February 2006 (UTC)Reply

Bad photo edit

The attached photo was of a slipknot album..and not a slipknot. The admins need to watch this page for regular cases of minor vandalism like this. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Dewdude (talkcontribs) 22:22, 9 June 2008 (UTC)Reply

Running Knot edit

'Running Knot' links here but there is no information in this article pertaining to running knots. I know that a running knot is a series of slipknots used to shorten rope or line but this is a bad redirect, it is almost completely irrelevent.66.170.42.236 (talk) 00:32, 20 October 2010 (UTC)Reply

A running knot is distinct from a slip knot only in the orientation; pulling the standing part releases a slip knot, pulling the working end releases a running knot. I propose a new page be created for running knot. Hadron137 (talk) 21:10, 13 August 2016 (UTC)Reply

Running knot is the same as noose knot. I updated the redirect from running knot to point to noose instead of slip knot. Hadron137 (talk) 22:04, 13 August 2016 (UTC)Reply

Stopper knot? edit

What makes this a stopper knot? On reading the definition of stopper knot, a slip knot in no way serves the function of a stopper knot. Kortoso (talk) 13:11, 6 April 2020 (UTC)Reply
