Might I suggest inclusion of the Buntline Hitch, both regular & slipped?
It's an ancient knot that does admirably well in modern synthetics. (Not all do...)

Another is the Marlin Spike Hitch. Really more of a tool than anything, but it's nearly useless with out clear instructions on it's use. Used around two spikes, hammer handles etc allows constrictors & the like to be pulled to near line breaking.

Cool site! Thanks!
Oops... sorry, I didn't see that you had indeed included the Buntline... my bad, Sorry about that!
