Abstract A suture anchor for anchoring one end of a conventional suture to bone comprising a coupling member, at least one bard made of a resilient elastic material projecting from said coupling member, and means for attaching one end of a suture to said suture anchor. The coupling member and the at least one bard are adapted to securely anchor one end of the suture in bone when the suture is attached to the attachment means, so that the other end of the suture extending outside the bone can be used to attach objects to the bone. A novel application tool is also provided.
