This is one of the eleven basic knots of traditional Chinese knotting, [1] a craft which began in the Tang and Song dynasty (960–1279 AD) in China. The Chinese and Japanese names for this knot are based on the shape of the ideogram for the number ten, which is in the shape of a cross that appears on one face (and a square on the other face). [2]
The traditional use of the knot is to form a knob or "stopper" to prevent the end of the rope from passing through a hole, for instance in rigging the lanyards which tension the shrouds on older sailing ships with standing rigging of fibre cordage. It is not specifically known who Matthew Walker was, nor why this knot was named after him.
