To create a strong door anchor or handle loop, consider the beer knot. Simply tie an overhand knot, slide one end into the other, and then work the knot over the embedded webbing. No special tools needed—a sharpened pencil will do! Just make sure you’ve buried enough webbing (6″ should be adequate for the 1″ tubular webbing shown). Unlike the water knot, which can slip over time, the beer knot becomes more secure under load and preserves most if not all of the webbing’s strength (!)
