ABSTRACT:
A knotting tool includes an elongate handle with a cord support projecting from the handle. The cord support includes walls about which the cord being knotted is wound. A guideway along the cord support receives cord segments with one of the segments being inserted through multiple windings formed on the cord support. A cord lock is insertable through an aperture in the cord support to temporarily bind a cord segment in place and may be in the form of a paper clip. A notched end of the cord support retains a reversed cord segment in place during knot formation. A deflector in the guideway acts on an inserted end of a cord segment to divert same out of the guideway to facilitate grasping. A method of forming a knot is disclosed using the present tool.
