Trucker’s hitch is probably my favorite because it’s adjustable and can be untied under tremendous tension. If you do two loops you can even get it to add some mechanical advantage.
Blackwall hitch is my favorite, for minimalism. It’s basically a sheet bend tied around the throat of a hook, and it will only hold while under tension.
Love when I get to use the trucker hitch. Was camping last weekend and used it for various things. Even when it was probably unnecessary. Day to day operations I’m mostly using the less flashy bowline and square the most.
It’s cool once you can tie [remember] all these knots. You start to look for excuses to use them.
