Here's another variation of the Offset Overhand Bend (aka Offset Ring bend)... Could this the Goldilocks Bend?!
I like this one because:[ ] Relative ease of tying - only adds one 'binding loop' to the existing structure (an idea borrowed from Dan Lehman's 'End Bound Double Bowline')
[ ] Secure and stable up to 3kN (tested by load cell today - as a double strand to duplicate double rope abseil descent - since force would be split between 2 rope strands)
[ ] Translates around a 90 degree edge due to its small profile - unlikely to become stuck at a 90 degree edge from low set anchors (similar profile to Offset Overhand Bend #1410)
[ ] Easy to untie (bounced my 100kg body mass for 30 seconds - no problem untying after loading)
[ ] Works well with different rope diameters (I played with 8mm and 11mm cords - seemed to bind well)


Comments please...
By the way, I'm not convinced of the criteria "relative ease of tying"...a climber by definition is already competent in tying a range of knots (eg Prusik hitch, Double Fishermans, Clove hitch, Tape knot / Ring bend, Figure 8 loop and rethreaded method of tying, Bowline variant (eg my EBSB variant), French Prusik, Double figure 8 loop (AB0K #1085), etc etc. Some of these knots are arguably 'difficult' to tie. It comes down to practice, practice and practice. Anything is hard at first (eg learning to drive a manual car) - but over time and with practice, it becomes 'easy'.
Statistically, more climbing is done on nice sunny crags with easy access in comparison to high altitude mountaineering in gales force winds, subzero temp and with oxygen starved brains...in any case, the high altitude mountaineer still had to tie and use some knots just to reach the summit. I don't accept that one knot from a repertoire is going to be more or less trickier than another. One could argue that a double F8 loop (ABoK #1085) is 'tricky' to tie. One could also argue that tying a figure 8 (ABoK #1047) into ones harness is also 'tricky' (its a 2 step process).
Be that as it may, my current 'Goldilocks Bend' is the image shown below.. aka 'End Bound Offset Overhand Bend' (mouthful of words).
