/ˈwɑlˌnɑt/

/ˈweɪlnɒt/

Forms: Also 1700s walled knot.

Etymology: The first element is of obscure origin. The word is found in modern Scandinavian languages: Swedish, Norwegian valknut, Danish valknude, double knot, secure knot (not confined to nautical use); in Norwegian also the gammadion or swastika. Compare German waldknoten (as if ‘wood-knot’, probably a popular etymology), in hunting language, a double knot.

A secure knot made on the end of a rope by unlaying and intertwining the strands.
