Monkey fists originated as a maritime knot used on sailing ships. Sailors tied the knot around a heavy object to create a weighted end for heaving lines.
The knot is called a "monkey fist" because its rounded shape and protruding loops resemble a clenched monkey's paw.
The weighted knot made it easier for sailors to throw a line over long distances, allowing them to pass ropes from ship to ship or from ship to shore for docking or mooring.
The knot's association with sailors and maritime life has made it a symbol of strength, resilience, and resourcefulness.
Monkey fists have become a hallmark of seamanship, often used as a badge of honor for those who master knot-tying skills.
