Abstract
A tying system that quickly and easily secures together ends of ropes, straps or cords is provided. The tying system has a base member and two holding members attached to different sides of the base member by first and second hinges. The tying system has opposing retention surfaces positioned on the base or holding members so that when the holding members are folded back onto each other as permitted by the hinges, two retention regions are created that tightly grip and hold the rope, strap or cord in place. The tying system is adaptable for many different sizes and dimensions of ropes, straps or cords and may be designed to grip and hold permanently or releasably.
