I tried learning this from an “animated knot” style video and it was about ten times faster than this. You are my new go-to! Cheers!

[@gabrielcheneyholub4322]

thank you so much!! that was incredibly informative, well paced, and pleasantly narrated

[@Mortalvis]

This Made so much more sense than the REI one, thank you!!!!

[@chodybarflousky]

Someone untied my favorite necklace that used this knot, so thank you for helping me fix it

[@pappysproductions]

🌟 I watch this video from time to time. It's on my top 5

[@Mirko_SanSan]

This is the only one of these Fisherman's Knot videos that worked for me. Thank you so much!

[@unclefranj8460]

"Up through and under that X" was key to my understanding of this one! Thank you!

[@Tengooda]

Agreed, the above is the best, clearest description of the few I've looked at for double fisherman's knot (some of which were hopeless!)

[@CodyLatimer-be4cb]

This video made this so much easier. I gave up and learned some other knots and found this cause i wanted to know this without forgetting... Can do it with my eyes closed now :D

[@nowdatsfresh]

This is leaps and bounds better than the REI video, thanks man

[@ckcogs8]

Agreed, just came from the rei vid after 20 secs

[@dtaylor4200]

I was gonna say the exact same thing

[@matthewforestieri6895]

True that

[@tnn6022]

Good images and slowly demonstrating! Best videos among others.

[@johngates453]

This 79 y.o. flyfisher still learning. Needed knot for fishing AND for loop for Prusik. Excellent Video: slow pace; good description of "landmarks" to moves !
Articulate !!! THX.

[@libbylandscape3560]

Thanks, easy to understand and follow! 💕

[@hansen704]

Great instruktions video. Thanks 👍

[@AdventurewithSimon]

Thank you so much. I was trying to do this from some google images and I was unable to do it. You have such a knack for explaining this slowly, and considering this is the kind of thing that is really really important to get right - thank you so much.

[@DGA2000]

Thank you for refreshing my memory with this great bend. One of the best!

[@i-am-kluge]

This really helped me explain and demonstrate how to tie the knot in a manner that my 4 year old niece understood and learned from. Everyone thinks I'm crazy for teaching her stuff like this at such an early age... but I heard that last weekend she hog-tied her almost 2 year old brother... so I must be doing SOMETHING right!

[@picvid8010]

This is awesome. Keep it going! Good luck 🤞🏾:D

[@lucam8758]

It is never too early to teach kids stuff. As long as you do it playfully and not make it a pain for them. Especially manual activities, kids love them and it really helps develop bonds and passions.
Future engineers may simply be kids who messed around with wrenches with their dad or mom

[@CL-ty6wp]

this and a bowline are very useful

[@limplin7]

Best way to explain the knot

[@azhrayharris8]

Thank you so much! My dog's leash broke on our walk today, but thanks to your clear video I was able to fix it!

[@kyle5536]

Watching multiple other videos on how to do this knot, this is the best, simplest video I've found. THANK YOU! First try

[@ariesmars29]

Agree with other posts, without your slow steps I couldn't follow other tutorials. It was a big help!

[@frithfiver]

Thank you! I have struggled with this knot specifically... this is the first video that has successfully taught me!

[@ArnoldsDesign]

This the best demonstration I've seen for this knot. Thanks.

[@demetrioslimberis2612]

Thank you for this video!! Thank you for slowing it down and making it very user-friendly. Was having trouble with other images/videos.

[@PKV-wl3ec]

Thankyou! Way slower, clearer and therefore more useful.. than all the other fancy/animated videos i found on YT so far.

[@CaReFrEe01]

Really good tutorial, this knot seemed impossible before this haha

[@GregoryYguitar]

Used this to fix a broken guitar string, thanks!

[@ryank8234]

You are the best at teaching. Thank you Sir.

[@stoneruler]

[@Sami-vt7tk]

[@ryanpenney8349]

Great tutorial! Nice and simple!

[@davidhamilton1446]

Thanks. Came here to make sure and that's a pretty cool way to tie it. Different than I learned but cool nonetheless.

[@DAEAJ1]

The prestige brought me here

[@arthurjeremypearson]

Thanks

[@krzysztofrzeszutek3995]

Dobra robota właśnie tego szukałem

[@jarluk5588]

Which knot did you tie

[@alexanderfoster5497]

Great video. 👍👍👍

[@georgcantor7172]

(2:30) To me, it looks like a constrictor knot that's applied to a rope. :O

[@djarmour4767]

Thank you so much this got me the climbing meritbadge

[@yanzeng783]

DJ Hulk _Yeet lol I’m doing my climbing merit badge on Thursday

[@josephjoestar7180]

I like how slow you speak, the other one i tried to watch was too fast paced and stressed me out!

[@BASTARDCRRUSH]

perfect

[@alexandravalliant8801]

i love you

[@jamesbrockway5681]

This was very helpful

[@walterdiaz2003]

nice

[@NikosKatsikanis]

the. knot that once you tie and load it’s never coming out

[@JJRSURVIVAL]

Good video mate

[@wolfpplyanimationsandgames4379]

Thank you! Now my prisoner can’t escape!

[@nilupradhan5564]

Indeed two feet long loop how long I need extra rope to make this loop

[@uuguul]

Thanks it's perfect

[@SebaCufer]

Looks like a stopper knot. Or it has 2 names ?

[@jjones624]

Tagert! (Thanks, great vid!)

[@TemplarX2]

For the first loop does it have to go around in clockwise manner? because if I do it anticlockwise it works as well.

[@nicholasraymond352]

Ive done this over and over i cant get the same result. Also i bought 8m cord.

[@AstronomyWales]

So if I tied this in two ends of the same rope to make a loop, would that be a suitable sling/runner for setting up an anchor?

[@JasonMcLamb]

Yes. All cordelette anchors are made using this knot.

[@AstronomyWales]

@@JasonMcLamb Thanks for the reply. Good to hear this is a suitable knot.

[@tendaisuper3065]

thanks alot

[@grahamkolb2916]

Why is it important for the tail ends to be on opposite sides of the knot???

[@TheMillionDollarDropout]

God why does this have to be so complicated with paracord

[@gustaverayl1811]

this is a double overhand bend, not the slang "fisherman" unless you are wearing waders standing in a trout stream. It is NOT a KNOT it is a bend.

[@walterlinwood8668]

Go team Jesus :)

[@Iwasshocked]

Could have just said fish

[@xFarmerGilesOfHamx]

You lost me at 2:00

[@jacknackbackpack]

that knot was too easy to untie :(

[@VDB420]

*Deez knots*

[@EliSpizzichino]

jesus fish... blah jesus freaxs

[@Jay-vr8it]

Sorry but this did nothing for me I don't know why

[@SteveVickAK]

Nice, but I am left handed so this is upside down and backward. Basically impossible to follow. I have to reverse engineer the whole thing and recreate it.
