Knot-a-Leash™ Rope Dog Leash

reflective with locking carabiner

Color

Selected: Obsidian Black

The Knot-a-Leash™ is a classic climbing-inspired leash that takes design and durability cues from the crag to create a strong connection with your canine. With supple, reflective kernmantle rope, a comfortable tubular webbing handle, and an auto-locking carabiner, it's the leash that'll go the distance from the epic to the everyday.

The tri-action, auto-locking carabiner not only creates a secure connection, but it also swivels to create a twist- and tangle-free experience. Lift, twist, and open to engage the locking mechanism on the carabiner.

The strong rope core in the Knot-a-Leash™️ is made from repurposed remaining yarns, which helps reduce impacts from disposal, recycling, and material production.

Complete the kit with the matching Knot-a-Collar™.

Rope Length: 5 ft (1.5 m) (Small and Large)
Rope Diameter: 7 mm (Small), 11 mm (Large)

    Great product

    I’ve used ruff wear knot-a-leash for many years. The last one I had lasted about 10 years but the was time. Got this new one and it’s a great color and quality is fantastic. I will always recommend these products

    Great Leash

    It's not too long, but has a little give if your dog goes a bit further away when sniffing! Love the carabiner as the clasp, it's very strong.

    Trustworthy secure leash

    I really like the secure carabiner clasp. I often take shelter dogs out for hikes and it is so important to trust that your leash clasp is not going to break (which has happened to me with other brands). Ruffwear makes a lot of reliable gear.
