               Double blackwall hitch




               The  blackwall  hitch  isn’t  the  most  reliable  of


               knots, so the double blackwall was created to make
               it more secure. There are two ways of tying a double


               blackwall:  with  the  extra  turn  in  the  hook  itself  (as
               shown), or with the extra turn in its shank.

























                      1  Take a turn around the hook, as for the single blackwall hitch.
