I'm assuming you mean a knot in wood here? I like the other sort. Always
fascinated me, but was useless at tying them. Now of course I cannot learn as I cannot see the many videos about this on the web. Why am I fascinated, well you can in fact make very pretty patterns with knots etc, and its just pleasing to see. Well it used to be.

It's a wood knot in a piece of two by two. I was surprised that it looked just like another perfectly circular in cross-section piece of wood had been inserted into the hole.

I accidentally discovered this while demolishing: https://www.dropbox.com/s/2tj1znjs37....jpg?dl=0&s=sl That's a dead knot. The branch died off but remained attached to the tree and subsequent rings on the trunk grew around it. Basically its no longer attached to the subsequent growth and so can be knocked out of the plank. And so is a source of structural weakness. Had it been sawn off next to the trunk before it died off then there would have been a tight or live knot inside the trunk which would be revealed when the trunk was sawn. While its of a harder consistency it's part of the growth and unlike dead knots doesn't weaken the timber. I see. I always thought knots were stronger, as they're bloody hard to saw through. Never thought of "dead knots".
