Overhand KNOT

If not the simplest knot to tie then certainly one of the easiest, the overhand knot is generally used as a stopper knot to keep other knot system in place and stable.

Safety:

Ropes and the knots associated with rope, can be dangerous. If improperly handled, or tied, ropes can kill and you could be the victim! Always use rope with care and  inspect and test any knots you tie. Respect ropes subject to a heavy load, especially your own climbing rope. The danger associated with ropes under load is often learned by painful experience.
