The Gord's Knot has a 4.17% chance of being found when digging up a grave. Gord's Knot is a reference to the story in which Alexander the Great was told that whoever could complete the impossible challenge of disentangling Gordian's Knot and release the tethered cart would rule all of Asia. He released the cart by cutting the Knot with a knife, and went on to conquer much of Asia Minor, before his army rebelled. It has since become a metaphor for solving a complex problem with a simple solution, by thinking outside of the box.

It can be traded to the Pig King for 4 Gold Nuggets.

It can be obtained by trading with the King of the Merms in exchange for Fishes.

When given to the Antlion as tribute, this trinket delays its rage by 0.66 days.

The Gord's Knot can be spawned into the game with the code "trinket_3".
