Double Fisherman’s Knot

                The  Double  Fisherman’s  Knot  is  used  to  let  two  ends  of  a  line  come
                together,  and  is  one  of  the  best  stoppers  around,  especially  if  you’d  use
                Technora  or  Spectra  Rope.  It’s  perfect  for  load-bearing  mechanisms,  and
                could work as full-length rope absails that could help you easily retrieve the

                rope once done. It may seem complicated, but it’s definitely the opposite—
                and you could easily learn how to make it!

                Instructions:


                      1.  Let the loop pass through the rope, strap, or harness.
                       2.  Then, make sure to thread it to the other end of the strap, and let it
                          lie neatly before pulling it tight.
