I’ve been pushing on the ends of hard knots for, um, a lot of years. It works far more often than not. For a knot in laid line, you do have to twist the way the line’s laid before you push.
When that doesn’t work, that’s why you carry a knife, right? (-:

Open the trash bag by bringing it down over the top of the trash can like an envelope. It will balloon, push the top of the balloon into the bottom of the can. taa-daa!

Gordian knot?
I do that with the necks of liberals. Twist, twist, twist, PULL!
70 percent of the time it works 100 percent of the time.
