stop saying that people are lot of looking like me but in haning megathread we can find nothing about the anker point
Well, that's the information that is available. If you want more information than what is contained therein, I suggest you do some searches for "anchor point knot" or the like. I think you're overthinking all of this. What does it matter how you tie the ligature around whatever it is you're tying it around as long as it's secure? You can't wrap it around something a couple times and throw a couple knots on it? The knot around the neck is the one that really matters. The other end just needs to be secured.

When I was a kid, we climbed up a tall ass tree and wrapped a very large rope around a branch and just tied it off with simple knots. We used the rope to swing out and over a creek after starting up a hill from the creek. That rope took all kind of abuse and the couple knots we tied at the branch on the tree never gave way once, and believe me, none of us knew what we were doing with regard to rope and knots at that age.

It doesn't matter if it's a "slipknot" or a "noose", that's just symbolic meaning, it will work with any knot that forms an adjustable loop and slips easily. see about Scaffold knot, it's safe, it's used in climbing, so obviously it's safe for hanging too.

^ They're right. And if you're worried, secure it, wrap it around your hand a few times, and put your full weight on it. The knot that will be restricting your carotid arteries is the one that matters most.

any knot will do to secure it, just give it some pulls to check if it secure and you good to go, just watch a youtube vidoe about knots if you dont know any

A 5m witch knife sounds lethal enough on its own..

Best knot for anchor point is the double constrictor, the clues in the name. Use a noose or slip knot for hanging end. If you want to alleviate some of the pain on the throat, but possibly prolong the process of blacking out, then try the hangmans.

A2Z sell a ton of suitable options for £20~ but the one you already have is perfectly suitable.
