Usage
Called the "Triple Roll" by the U.S. Army Rangers, it is tied in detonating cord (detcord) as a means to prime plastic explosives. The knot can also be used as a bulky stopper knot.
Structure
The Triple Roll Knot is an alternatively dressed form of the Triple Overhand Knot. By adjusting and dressing the turns, the two knots can be transformed into one another. In mathematical knot theory, the two knots are identical.
