How to Tie the Calvary Knot

You will notice a lot of people, most in fact, will either tie their lead rope to their saddle horn, or take it off and put it in their saddlebags when they are trail riding.  The US Calvary as well as The Royal Canadian Mounted Police use what is a Calvary Knot to keep their lead rope in place, you have seen them but might not have recognized it as a lead rope.  See the photo below:



The below video is a demonstration of how to tie a lead rope into a Calvary Knot for trail riding.
