The Lapp knot is a type of bend. It has the same structure as the sheet bend, but the opposite ends are loaded. The slipped Lapp bend is also an exploding knot, which means that when pulling the quick release end it falls completely apart without further entanglement. It is as strong as or even stronger than the sheet bend,[1] though much less common.

The Lapp knot is closely related to the sheet bend, the bowline and the Eskimo bowline. They all share the same core structure, but differ in how the four ends are loaded. The Lapp knot was sometimes called 'false sheet bend',[2] which might explain its low popularity.
