What is a four-in-hand knot? Links? Tie the lopsided knot you call a Windsor. That's a four-in-hand. Actually according to the website linked above, the four-in-hand is the other half of a half windsor.
Eh?
Dave, if your half-Windsor looks crooked, you're trying it wrong.

OK I voted.
What was the style called where there was no visible knot, the last time out that usually goes behind the loop stays out instead? (it was semi popular in the 70s and early 80s)

No - an ascot uses a different shape of cloth. But the knot is similar to that.

Double Windsor is what they taught us in boot camp, and the only one I know.
