Triple Fisherman's Knot.
Triple Fisherman's
Certain cordage, such as Spectra or Kevlar, is quite slick and stiff. Consequently, knots have a
difficult time keeping their wraps. The Triple Fisherman's is a relatively new knot designed to keep a
good hold in such cords. It is identical to the Double Fisherman's, except that the ropes are wrapped
three times around each other.
