    Brilliant. Your knot teaching videos are clear, nicely explained and slow enough to follow along while trying the knot at the same time.

    I saw a video recently and the creator was calling the working end, the cut end, and the standing end, the long end. I liked that a lot because the classic terminology is not ingrained within me. That said, I do enjoy your videos as well.

    great videos btw - very clear and informative thanks - i call once thro at the end a fisherman's bend, twice thro at the end, an anchor bend.. but then really the knot's more important than its name and there'll be a lot of different names around the world for the same knots, eg bull hitch or cow hitch etc..

    I discovered for myself (no doubt it is already documented somewhere though) that if you take the working end down then pass it up through the last 2 loops, it forms an extremely secure knot. (kind of an Anchor Hitch around a Round Turn)

I doubt anyone would engage in a sport or lifestyle activity just to utilize a knot seen in a YT video. You note I did include criteria by which a substitute may be considered.

    Great hitch. To assist in untying you could feed a loop through instead of the end, so giving a slip knot. In fact after the double turn you could just feed a loop through the first time to give a very respectable and firm hitch.

    It holds fast to something like an anchor or post, something loose like a bowline would shafe especially in a boat situation. I use this tying equipment to a trailer or truck as it holds tight where you put it. One additional thing I do is run the loose end back through the knot leaving a loop on one side, that way when I untie it I can pull the loop through, and that gives me enough slack to easily untie the knot, there are several variations of this knot.

    A superb knot if used correctly. Just use a knife when the rope is worn out. There is always two sides of a coin when it comes to knots. If you think all knots are secure AND easily undone in all situations, think again🤔⚓️
