zeppelin bend
A Zeppelin bend (also Rosendahl bend) is a general purpose bend knot. It is a secure, easily tied, and jam-resistant way to connect two ropes. Though its simplicity and security may be matched by other bends, it is unique in the ease with which it is untied, even after heavy loading.
==History==
Both names for this knot stem from its use to moor airships: a ''Zeppelin'' being a rigid-bodied type of airship, and Charles Rosendahl being the US Navy officer who apparently insisted it be used to moor airships under his command.
Despite being praised by some sources as a nearly ideal bend knot, it is not very well known; Clifford Ashley, author of ''The Ashley Book of Knots'', was apparently unaware of this bend.〔The chapter covering bend knots in ''The Ashley Book of Knots'' does not include this knot. See pages 257–274.〕 Budworth (1998) names a similar looking decorative knot the "blimp knot".〔Budworth, Geoffrey (1998). ''The Complete Book of Decorative Knots'', p.34. Globe Pequot. ISBN 1558217916.〕
