Nordt™ Knot Tightener

The Nordt™ Knot Tightener allows both pushing and spreading of knots, reproducing the same techniques used when tying traditional open knots.

Features and Benefits:

Eliminates the need to thread the suture through an eyelet
Can be used with any suture
Easily pushes and tightens sliding knots
Able to tie square knots

One study shows that knots tied with the Nordt™ Knot Tightener were stronger than traditional open and closed knot pushers, and comparable to finger tied knots1
