ABSTRACT:
A hand-held device for tying a twisted clinch knot includes a worm shaft, a handle defining a recess shaped to receive the shaft, a first stop for determining a forwardmost position of the shaft relative to the handle and for retaining a first end of the shaft within the handle, a hook located on a second forward end of the shaft, and a protrusion located on an interior wall of the handle that is received within threads of the shaft. A method for tying a twisted clinch knot includes the steps of providing the aforementioned device, attaching the hook to an article to which a line is to be secured, advancing an end portion of the line through an opening defined by the article, rotating the shaft about the protrusion while holding the handle on one side of the opening and while holding the end portion and a next adjacent end portion of the line on the other side of the opening, and passing a part of the end portion through a loop of the line that passes through the opening.
