[edit] Origin
In some sailing ships, speed was measured by casting the chip log from the stern. The log was relatively immobile, and attached by line to a reel. Some sources suggest that knots placed at a distance of 47 feet 3 inches (14.4018 m) passed through a sailor's fingers, while another used a 28 second sandglass to time the operation. The knot count would be reported and used in the sailing master's dead reckoning and navigation. This method gives a value for the knot of 20.25 in/s, or 1.85166 km·h−1. The difference from the accepted value today is a bit less than 0.02 %.

[edit] Discussion
Because a knot is defined as a nautical mile/hour, the expression "knots per hour" is considered incorrect as a unit of speed, since this suggests 'nautical mile/hour²', which would be a measure of acceleration.

Although knots do not fit within the primary SI system, their retention for nautical and aviation use is important for navigational reasons, since the length of a nautical mile is almost identical to a minute of latitude. As a result, distance in nautical miles on a navigational chart can easily be measured by using dividers and the latitude indicators on the side of the chart.
