Structure
The Woodland Zip-tie Lashing is based on the Cow Hitch Locking Knot, aka Woodland Zip-tie, and inherits that knot's ability to maintain tension as it is cinched tighter, even when the working ends are released.
Strength/Reliability
The Woodland Zip-tie Lashing is intended to be a temporary lashing and shouldn't be used for critical or permanent applications. The lashing can be made more secure by adding frapping turns and finishing with a square knot. For a more permanent attachment, consider the traditional Square Lashing or Japanese Square Lashing.
