I claim: 1. A saddle mount for connecting elongated flexible items to a structure comprising:a base adapted to be secured to the structure;a pair of spaced-apart walls each projecting from the base to a wall free end, the walls thereby forming a saddle with the base, the walls each having an aperture between the base and the free end for receiving a tying member, the walls each having inner surface facing the other wall and an outer surface on an opposite side of the wall, at least one of the spaced-apart walls having in its outer surface at least one recess, the recess disposed between the aperture and the free end at a distance below a top rounded edge of the free end, the recess having an upper lip projecting laterally outwardly, the upper lip of the recess having a top surface curving downwardly in a laterally outward direction, the tying member bearing against the top surface of the upper lip, the upper lip and the tying member defining a cavity having a closed top end closed by a downwardly facing surface of said upper lip opposite said top surface thereof, the recess extending laterally across the outer surface a distance greater than a lateral width of the aperture, the recess thereby configured to permit a cutting surface to access an underside of the tying member extending through the apertures.
