[edit] Franz Bachmann

_ _ There's a Franz Bachmann mentioned on the Web (2 hits at 3 sites by Googling

"Klemheist" "franz bachmann"

), for developing a variation on the klemheist, "FB sling-friction knot". So is he the Bachmann of the Bachmann knot?
_ _ Hmm. 4 FB-knots, including that one, at Entwicklung der FB-Knoten ("Development [i think] of the FB-knots")

_ _The "FB sling-friction knot" is not a variation of the "Klemheist" but of the "Hedden knot"83.76.173.253 16:46, 25 April 2007 (UTC)user:Riehener,25.April 2007.

How is this knot used? Where's the load. How much load? Are we talking carrying a body or just a few extra carabiners?--Sparklingpoolcare 04:34, 4 September 2007 (UTC)
