Cow Hitch with Toggle
Hitch with toggle for quick release
The Cow Hitch with Toggle is a variation of the Cow Hitch used when there is no access to the working end of the rope. A toggle is inserted to secure the knot, which can be removed for quick release. It is commonly used in sailing and decorative applications where easy adjustment or detachment is needed.
Advantages
Allows quick release by removing the toggle, useful when the working end is inaccessible.
Disadvantages
Toggle may come loose unintentionally if not secured properly, reducing reliability under load.
