A tight knot is a knot in a piece of lumber that is firmly attached and does not easily fall out. It is formed when a branch grows into the trunk of a tree and becomes surrounded by new wood growth, causing it to become firmly embedded.
A sound knot is a knot in lumber that is solid and firmly fixed in place, and does not fall out or affect the strength or durability of the surrounding wood. It is a natural occurrence caused by a branch that has been fully encased by the growth of the tree's trunk, creating a tightly knit, dense portion of wood.
