ok. right.. i need to speak clearly.

Do you, NS, have any solutions to a knot that is tied way to tight? as in a way to loosen it.

for reference, a butter knife (very slim) wasn't even close to fitting in the crease.. that's how tight it is. oh, and i can't even twist it on the caribeaner..

It's a knot made of solid steel. and i need to undo it
