The Weston knot has been advocated as the knot of choice [20] for ease of tying. However, it requires three added throws for security. The Weston knot tumbles and locks when tension is applied to the (short) loop end and therefore needs to be cinched without any tension on the loop end. Most often the added throws are made with intracorporeal technique, which may be a disadvantage to this knot if intracorporeal space is limited.
