Régate Bow Knot / Gassho Knot

This is a  knot in which the end parts are spread to the left and right after tying a Plain-knot. Historically, we can see many pre-tied-tie of the same silhouette in French commercial advertisement in the early 1900's, called Régate, which seems to signify a regatta boat. Gassho-Knot was named after the Japanese style of joining two hands together for prayer, Gassho, 合掌, which has a similar silouette.
