How to Tie a Double Fisherman's Knot

Don't forget to give me a thumbs up and if you'd like to see more knot tying tutorials, subscribe to my channel.
Welcome to my channel How to Knot and in this video, I will be showing you how to tie a double fisherman’s knot. This is a great knot for uses in climbing, camping, and fishing. When used in a climbing scenario, the loose ends can be bound with tape so they don’t catch up on anything. This is considering one of the strongest knots for connecting two pieces of rope and is very reliable. It can however jam extremely tight where it makes it near impossible to untie, therefore requiring the rope to be cut.
Start by wrapping the one working twice around the opposite rope.
Feed the working end through the loop and stung up the knot.
Now do the same of the other working end.
Wrap it around twice.
Feed the working end through the loops and tighten.
Tighten the other knot and dress accordingly.

I was putting a mat on a backpack and the rope didn't reach the other side, now it does, thank you!

You did such a good job I can't untie the practice knot. It's so good. Next videos could you please go over the process once more but slower, palms up as you work, so we can see the intricacies. Thanks

Subscribed, and THIS was very helpful for a pulley I'm trying to set up. Don't worry, nothing extreme or load bearing for this new guy, 🤣

I am incredibly spatially challenged, but after looking at a few videos, I found that I could actually follow yours easily. I have repeated it a few times and am hoping that I can actually repeat the process when I am away from the monitor. Stay tuned. Yeah, I was able to tie 2 ropes together to replace one which had "broken" due to high winds.

I had the exact same experience. I became frustrated with the knot, until I watched this video.
