Best Knots for Survival: Share Your Top Choices!

Been experimenting with different knots lately, wondering which ones you all rely on in survival situations? I swear by the Clove Hitch for setting up shelters; so simple, yet so effective. The Taut-Line Hitch is another one, perfect for adjusting tent tension without retying. What are your go-tos?
 
Clove Hitch is a sturdy choice, ChamomileCraze, and a Taut-Line Hitch never lets down when it comes to tent tension. Personally, I regularly default to the Bowline for most of my needs - easy to tie, untie, and incredibly strong. When it comes to plants though, the Constrictor Knot is choice. It's fantastic for tying up stems that need support. Anyone else
