Really amazing..
One suggestion, if you could tell the viewers a couple of instances this Knot is useful and not useful that'd be icing on the cake!
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.
So long and your rope is rated for climbing, you can trust your life to this knot when used correctly.
I think there is a longer video about this knot in his channel
a lot of people use this in climbing to tie a rope to itself in order to make a loop. then they use the loop tied with a double fisherman's to make a prussik that can be used as an emergency way to climb a rope
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.
Awesome fix, thank you for sharing this!!
What's the name of the knot?
@@Der.stille.BeobachterDouble fisherman
Does that mean it is suitable and safe for climbing applications?
You do good work
Another knot I won't remember when needed
😂 Take it easy my friend.
I said 'my friend' means, me too.😅😂
😂😂
😂 save the video and watch it when needed😂
@@denggarambang1151damn, where's my phone?!?
Practice, practice, practice!!!
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.
You can also do more loops to make it more decorative, but it does get a bit fiddly. Have fun! 🪢✨👌😁
I use this to connect all my pieces of leftover paracord but with one bight. I have about 30-feet so far. I use these pieces for small projects instead of throwing away, it really saves me from wasting good paracord when I only need a little bit.
Every knot-tying video: "This is one of those knots everyone should know."
And we still have no idea regarding the appropriate circumstances for choosing a particular knot.
This knot is NOT a must. I only use this as a bend when other bends will not work. Or I will use it when I want the knot to be permanent, because this knot is a jamming knot. After high strain, this knot will not come apart.
Because people tend not to publish tutorials for the useless ones…
@@dbaker280 That's a shame. There are some very pretty, useless knots.
nah this one is for real. Im not an outdoors guy and this is one of the 3 types of knots i know how to do apart from the gallow one and how I tie my shoes. but this one has saved me lots of times in situations i didnt know i could use it.
FYI THIS IS A BINDING KNOT. ONCE ITS DONE IT BECOMES SLIGHTLY DIFFICULT TO REVERSE THIS PROCESS.
💯
@@TheBearEssentialsthis knot can slip and come undone in circumstances, they are just two square knots.
@@1ch190those are not square knots. If anything they are more akin to clove hitches.
Loop it once on each side and it will untie way easier and hold as well.
Hahahahahaha... rope tech. Is that like basket weaver? @@morosleviwalker61
You're ability to articulate each step and make the whole thing easier to follow is underated.
Very good that you offered the name of the rope; Dbl Fisherman's Bend.
I subbed because I'll never remember the action. I can go back & look it up easier. Thanks🌹 Great directions.
Note; if you tie this knot and then load it, don't expect to be able to undo it. It's incredibly difficult to get this knot free once it has had a load put on it.
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.
If your going put a big load on the knot then take more wraps instead of going around 2 times go around 4 times or 3 times or just use a bowline knot I use this knot to make a loop out a peace of rope
Obviously it is hard to untie when supporting a load.... otherwise it would be a very insufficient knot. 😂
Thanks for the heads up. I guess I should use the slip knot instead if I want to untie the knot later.
@@markus717 so why would you even use the reef
Thank you, I used this knot to close my necklace with a jewelry pendant hanging from it. So you can adjust the length according to your needs.
Use this knot for a bracelet or an anklet. Use a breakaway knot for necklaces, for safety. Unless the necklace string is easily breakable. Something has to give, if the necklace gets caught somewhere, or someone tries to steal it.
Essential for rock climbing. This knot consumes the least length of rope for connecting two ropes. Especially important when abseiling. A real life savour.
Life saver 😊
@chiefengineer488
Savour the moment 😅
I use bowline knots for everything.
@@alnov91they're not appropriate for everything.
@@CFEF44AB1399978B0011 true
“Start off by crossing your ropes” proceeds to instantly uncross ropes 😂
Yes, I noticed it too 😂
Great knot, but some people will now think, it's necessary to start exactly this way or the knot will not hold. 😂
interaction bait
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.
One of the many important life skills. Rope tying, how to make fire using wood, how to navigate via stars, etc.
Thank you.this is more appreciated than you think🙏🏼❤️🙏🏼
Ropes always good to have around.
Backett/double beckett is also a good option for different sized lines with the caveat that it won't naturally bind up
The adjustable bracelet knot!!
I used this knot for crocheting just yesterday! Pretty handy. :3
And you can adjust the amount of wraps to change the friction on the bend. Around a dozen wraps were popular fir some uses.
Stopper knots, i typically use them after the figure 8 knot in rock climbing or drawstrings for pendants or waistbands
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.
Had to learn all these knots as a steamfitter and Boy Scouts!
You did man congrats. I knew you'd get it. I remember when I taught you this years ago. How long did it take again? 2 yrs was it
I appreciate how you make it easier for beginners
I wish I knew what it is used for. If it is challenging to undo etc. Appreciate that it is teaching what it's called and how it is done. Still uncertain about the rest
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.
elide the "not" after "reef knot"
Try the Zeppelin knot!
Why was I learning to make the double seamans knot at 3AM
Paying attention like I’ll remember when I need it 😂 not
Dependence on the internet for knowledge does interrupt your sleep.
Yeah... learning it at 7PM instead of eating dinner is far more reasonable.
what you were doing at 3am knotted up with a double of semen, is YOUR business!
You forgot to mention that this is a binding knot and that when used with enough pressure, you will HAVE TO cut the rope to undo it.
My other option for tying two ropes together in a MOSTLY secure fashion but still be able to undo the ends would be to connect two bowlines to each other. I've had excellent results for that.
You can also use a bowline backed by a half hitch, much faster and easier to untie
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.
" Start by crossing ropes over" ...then commences tying by uncrossing them.
Why are those ropes so f***ing sophisticated.
I use the exact same knot for seafishing, its used for tying the shockleader ( thats the line that carries your trace and weight) to the mainline that comes off your reel. It stops your mainline snapping because of the force thats used to get your line out over long distances.
Swordfish drift gear reminded me of
Was gonna use this knot to top off my reel line on my spear, but a shock leader sounds like a good idea 🤔
@@allanjr808 try it, my main line is about 25- 30lb breaking strength and my shockleaders are all 70-80lb , just takes up the shock from the casting, I have many multipliers and all apart from the boat reels are set up the same, regardless if I’m off rocks jetty or breach , if I’m using lures or spinners it’s straight line right through.
Whoa, flashback. I remember learning this in scouts years ago
I love how you say start with your ropes crossed, then first movement you make is uncrossing them
Nice! I am learning from your content!
Sweeet! Another cool and useful knot skill that my brain will never choose to remember...!🤯
I thought it would be a slip knot. But no. It's better because with this one you could use it for ropes of different thickness.
Nice, as I can make use of ropes of shorter length when I need a longer one.
Thats a beauty. I struggle to remember them though and tend to fall back on my two or three favourite knots.
I always wondered why it's called the "Fishermen's" until I watched something educational about fishing, and they talked about a rig that needed to use this particular knot. I believe it was for rock fishing?
This is a great technique for teaching knot tying. There should be a downloadable ten knot program.
Oh i cannot wait to go on fishing this Saturday and put this skill to use. Imma catch them fishes by the twos.😅😅
This gives major "how to hold a duck turtorial" vibes
Haven't dealt much with knots since Boy Scouts, but remember a similar knot called the Blood Knot. Are they the same?
We would use the snot when splicing one fishing line to another. You learned to do it quickly because sometimes you have a live fish on one of the lines. (I was working as a maid on a boat for background information)
Just used this to fix the line that just broke on my cheap backpack, now I can even adjust the lenght!
Thank you Brandon
Thank you DJ 🙏🏻 God Bless
Appreciate you my friend 🙂
Thank you for your time.
Learn a stationary bowline. Easy to remember and can be used for more than any knot he will show you on here
We use this in electrical/cabling work for underground cable pulling
Nice knot. End to end and different sizes is a challenge. Zeppelin knot is best for that and way faster.
This bend is for monofilament or fine plastic cord, in real life it's a poor substitute for a sheet bend.
I just do two bowlines, one going through the other.
I also tie my shoes with the bowline.
Actually, I don't remember any other knot other than a bowline.
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…….
You should not use it for heavy loads like for boats. When the ropes get very tight the knot squeezes the rope so hard that it weakens.
If you're rappelling with equal thickness double-ropes there are safer knots, this knot is easy to get wrong and relatively hard to detect a mistake.
In what way is a double fisherman easy to get wrong? It jams even if you tie it asymmetrically.
This should absolutely not be used for rapelling but not for the reasons you listed
I am a nfpa cliff rescue tech and it is THE knot taught to join ropes for long rappelling.
Use the sailors sheet bend. Simpler. Works.
The double fishermen's bend is basically a Western Union splice setup, minor differentiation, but the concept is the same.
A keeper rope method. Thanks SO very much. So very useful 😊😊😊😊😊
Extremely useful to know how to do such things as a man thanks you for this video❤
...or as a human being.
As a REAL M A N i wouldn't EVER use a Red Heart when conversing with another man.
😂😂 brother you need some help
@@chiefengineer488or as a human being yes u people on the Internet are weird 😅
Two thumb knots either side will do the same thing...any knot you think will slip and come undone.... put some extra half hitches on the tails.
I hope I member this one. Seems pretty easy.
From the Boy Scouts, I learned the Sheet Bend knot for that purpose. Any feedback is welcome.
Half hitch and an inverted half hitch does the same, plus the two different ropes can be easily separated
In climbing/mountain rescue this knot is not recommended, because if it gets in cracks, you won't get the rope out
Yes, the offset overhand bend is better in that situation. Anybody whose life depends on a knot should NOT be learning from videos like this.
It's a good knot but I prefer the double sheet bend or the zeppelin bend for this purpose.
By the time I need to use this technique, this video will be mission-impossible to find 😂
Double fisherman bend, it is used to join two ropes for life loading purpose.
I learned this way earlier from Bear Grylls ❤
I always sucked at making knots.
I still do.
A pretty similar knot used in fishing is called the double uni. Basically you put one rope above the other and take the top one and make a loop with the tag end. 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
My dad and I use this knot to join different thicknesses of fly fishing line together.
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.
Thx bro. Me and my homie were sword fighting and got stuck together. Watching this vid backwards did the trick.
It's like a constrictor squeezing its prey😲
Annamalai 🔥🔥 I like him to be PM of India, one day !
I use this on necklace string 😂
RIP
@@jyothishkumar3098
It’s what you typically see on necklaces where you can adjust the cord.
Overhand EDK is just as strong and reliable as a double fisherman's and pretty much exclusively used by climbers to rap down sharp end+ tag line
Good video. 👍👆👌 It is useful. Love to learn little things from social media reels.
Good explanation.just subbed
That knot is also used for repelling as a safety net which keeps you from falling.
Excellent thanks for sharing ❤
i did it the complete opposite way and it still worked.
I used to learn this in scouts. It's called double hitch.
I learned this knot many years ago by the name of _Double bowline_ which was obviously an error. But it is a very useful knot.
I have known this knot for a long time under the name Grapevine.
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.
@@FlorinArjocu you're right. The friend who showed me this knot many years ago called it like this. I learned its real name with this great video. Nevertheless, I use this knot for a lot of things even if I'm _not a knots nut_ (or specialist).
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?
Damn square knot is faster and holds just as good
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.
This knot is used to make adjustable necklaces.
Grazie molto interessante Fratelli. 👏🏼💐🐺
cheers for this tutorial!🕊
What happens if the go in the same direction? 😮
I watch these knot videos, and then immediately forget how to do any of it
It's not a 'tag end' until the knot is finished- it's called the 'working part' (as opposed to the 'standing part').
Thank you.
Two clove hitches.
Clove hitch on another line.
