    I get where you’re coming from. I think a square knot would hold just fine. I think this is just a more clean way to splice it. I’m guessing this method may be easier in the long term if you wanted to undo it.

    In the middle of the flag, this way it never interferes with raising or lowering no matter how the flagpole is rigged.

    Why not just tie a Zeppelin Bend? It's just as secure, and you can actually untie it even after it has been reefed on by the wind etc.

    Two reasons: First, esthetically the triple fisherman's knot, shown here, is more attractive & the working ends end exit parallel to the line, which could be taped-off with white electrical tape for an even more professional finish. Second, there is no need for an easy un-tie knot, here. It stays tied until the rope is replaced. BTW, the Zeppelin Bend is my favorite but it's not the best choice in all cases.

    “Knot” a fisherman’s knot because it’s “knot” fishing tackle, it’s “knot” being used for fishing in this context, and a fisherman’s knot is typically 5-6 wraps, “knot” two, in any context… And if you really wanna get technical a Fisherman’s knot is actually an “improved clinch” knot… “knot” to mention typically limited to under 20 pound test.

    there are six knots you need to secure the rope sine I am an Eagle I know all of them. The first is the classic Square Knot after you pull the old rope out you need to secure the ends with a square knot while it is on the ground. the second is a double square knot also called a fishing knot this makes sure it does not come unhooked. the third is a trucker hitch you use this to secure the knot as a safety. the final three knots are used to secure the clips the first clip you use a bowline the second a timber hitch and you use a taunt line to straighten everything up until you can bind the rope. you repeat if you have a second flag. once you have the rope secure you splice above the knot and wrap it in tape then you burn it to secure it to the pole.
