What is a "Post Eye Tiable" knot or equivalently, what makes a knot "Post Eye Tiable"?
1 answer
Post eye tiable means that the rope is passed through the eye or harness before any any part of the knot is tied.
This is in contrast to a rethreaded figure of eight which has to be partially tied, the first figure of eight, before the end is passed through the harness or other eye that the rope is being attached to.
