And as I stated: I have yet to see anything move or slip on a well-made string.

Bowstring is such a waxy material that I have yet to see a knot that holds well "as tied", there's usually some slippage involved until the knot really tightens up to where it won't move. And if that's the case, the knot isn't doing anything for you in the first place.

Hey, if you like using knots- go for it. But I think it may be inappropriate to be stating to people reading these boards that, "You most definately need to tie a fisher mans knot on the ends or the string will seperate."

They just aren't required for a good string.
