There are nine marine knots that are useful and regularly used. That's
all anyone really needs to know for good rope work, plus one splice called
the eye splice. This is a method of making a permanent eye in the end of
a rope in such a way that it will not undo and will retain 90% of the
strength of the rope.

| The Double Fisherman's Knot securely ties two ropes together or can be used to tie the ends of rope or cord together to form loops. Another use for this knot is to make another knot more secure by tying this knot in the running end of the rope behind another knot, a practice common to mountain climbers. In that case, you are effectively tying one half of the Double Fisherman's around the standing line of the other knot. |
