The Blimp Knot is a very secure and large knot, so it makes a great hand hold and it also adds some weight to the end of your line if you need to throw it. The Blimp Knot will never seize.
To Tie a Blimp Knot:
| Start with an Overhand Knot. |  |
| Take your working end and pass it back through the top loop of your Overhand Knot. |  |
| Pass the working end back through the loop you just created. |  |
| Dress the knot and tug it from the standing end and the working end to make the knot secure. |  |
