      I’ve used this knot to tie the ends of a couple climbing ropes together so I could rappel twice the length that I could with just one rope. You could also use it to tie both ends of accessory chord together. I utilize a looped chord for building climbing anchors.

      The only drawback is that under load it binds so tight that alien races will, upon discovery the dried husk of our planet many eons hence, know that we were here because the two ropes will still be fused together.

    We use this knot in mine rescue and I have one suggestion. Often in a jam you can mix up the directions since you start off on the right, then move to the left. You can very quickly avoid this if 1. You move to the other side of the rope and do the same movement, or 2. If the rope is loose, just flip it over and do the same movement. Hope that help! Cheers.

    I use this knot when replacing a cord on a pendant, as an alternative to chain. It is a great knot for adjusting the length after you put it on.

    • @markus717
      @markus717 9 місяців тому +15

      True. So what you do is tie a basic reef knot first, which can take incredible loads and still untie easily but are not safe enough to use on their own. Then you use the two tails to tie the fisherman's bends. Make them triple or more. Now your ropes are connected in a way that can take incredible loads still untie easily.

      He crossed it the wrong way for how he ties it. He uncrossed it then crossed it the other way. For ease of tying you usually cross the side you are tying first over the other rope. The first way he crossed it would be typical to tie the left side first. As long as the crosses and slants are parallel it doesn't matter. Funny though that he did that right after he said it.

    You could go a step further and tie an alpine butterfly afterwards so that the double fisherman ends up in the loop of the alpine, this prevents the fisherman from reciving any load making it easy to untie and also giving a point to clip a karabiner into when passing the knot in an abseiling scenario.

    After reading the comments and playing around, I am liking the reef knot (square knot) finished with these. With a reef knot not in the middle, I don't believe the wrap direction matters. To those suggesting a reef knot or sheet bend, these can be shaken loose (come loose thru loading/unloading cycles). My purpose would be in boating where this is a major issue.

    I forget the name of the knot, but I learned (in boy scouts), in my youth, a much simpler not used for tying two different sized ropes together which does not waste excess rope to secure the two different sized ropes together - A)you make a loop with the larger rope, B)then take the end of the smaller rope ,and then come up through that loop you made with the larger rope, C) then take that smaller end down and around both "pieces" of the larger rope, then you come back up and go underneath the part of the smaller rope where you came up originally through the loop of the larger rope. I have used this knot many times and it works very well.

    The single bend version, is quicker and easier to tie, and it’s just as reliable and easy to untie (as long as you have a decent tail left, after it’s pulled tight), which is why we use it, to join our baskets of longlines(longlines, are a rope that has a hundred or more hooks on it) together, and we would join ten or more lines together(which are not necessarily the same thicknesses), for catching all sorts of different fish, such as, conger eels, cod, turbot, spur-dogs and skate/rays…….

Go through the loop 3 or 4 times and pull the tag end to tighten. Repeat on the other side and pull both mainlines apart to pull the knots together. If you want a better description watch a video

    Love the double fisherman not... Great for necklaces. But if your cord is too small you should put a bead in between the 2 of them

    Great knot tied correctly. Can be useful for multiple purposes but well know in the rescue, underground, and climbing crowds. Was just watching a different channel tying knots that looked somewhat similar but not done correctly which was sort of scary.

      The bowline is a completely different knot; it makes an easy untie, but if it is not done correctly, you might easily die because if it.

    This Double Fisherman Bend is a pretty knot, but it is used in limited circumstances for a reason. This is a jamming bend after high tension. Be prepared for this knot to be permanent. A jam is typically desirable in fishing line for example. I will also use this knot when no other bend works. Usually the single version is good enough. In contrast, the Zeppelin Bend or Sheet Bend will not jam on you.

    The rock climbing book I've read (can't remember the name unfortunately) advises against using ropes of significantly different thickness. How do you justify your claim that it's still safe?

    As a fishermen (angler), I can say that we basically never use this knot, as it can cut the line under load, especially with different diameters or kinds of lines.
    Even if used, you do an extended barrel knot at both ends with at least three wraps, not just a simple barrel knot.
    In fly fishing they do something similar, called the nail knot, where with a thinner line you make an extended barrel knot of at least six wraps and choke down on the thicker line. As the thicker line doesn't have any knots and the entire joint relies on friction, it is not preferred for bigger loads.
    What we actually use is something similar, called the Uni knot (or double uni knot). In case the diameter of the knot matters, we use an Albright knot or a Blood knot and in case we want it to travel snag free in one direction, we use the Mahin knot.
    For a quick and dirty, we use a Surgeon's knot, while the sloppy ones would just do a double surgeon's knot (surgeon's join knot).
    The most used is the Uni knot, as it can connect different kinds of lines (monofil to braided), while it can also join lines with not too different diameters. If there is too much of a difference between the diameter of the two lines we use either a double blood knot (where instead of using the free end of the thinner line, you use a bite) or the Albright knot.
    Also, as far as I know, this is called a double Fishermen's bend, as the Fishermen's bend is used to tie the free end of one rope to something.

    It's not a 'tag end' until the knot is finished- it's called the 'working part' (as opposed to the 'standing part').
