A knot that stays tight after the rope goes slack is called a "slip knot" or a "taut-line hitch." These knots are designed to hold under tension but can be easily adjusted when needed. They are commonly used in situations like camping or sailing, where the rope may need to be tightened or loosened frequently. Properly tied, these knots will maintain their grip even when the load is released.
