95% straight line strength. After tying, pull the knot away from the hook eye and you now have a loop knot, it slides back tight when you hook up. This is a Hangman's Noose with three and a half wraps.
This is very similar to the San Diego jam knot, only lacking the pass through the loop near the hook before going through the loop on the other end. This allows it to form a little better than the San Diego jam knot which always has a full strand running outside the barrel portion of the knot. It will be interesting to see how these compare.
Agreed most knots are stronger when doubled on certain lines types and certain knot configurations. I have got most of the doubled versions on my to do list for testing. Thx and tightlines
This knot stinks. It may be a great strong knot offshore. But if you use it in rivers, lakes or creeks with grass, the tag in pointing toward the reel will catch grass, covering your hook or jig. Just my opinion 😊

Close to the cousin knot called the San Diego jam knot which is better for the 2 cinch areas compared to 1

The double pitzen looks rather strange because youve got three tag ends when you cut it,but its a killer knott!
that's not the pitzen knot i know, the doubled one is better !
Looks like a snell knot
I always tie what ive known as the double pitzen
How does this knot perform, looks like it has a lot of slack in it?
We will be testing this knot in about a weeks time, there is excess line wrapping on the outside of the knot, we will find out if this causes issues.

He tied it wrong. You need to pull the tag end as well.
Should be doubled, way stronger

This is a San Diego jam knot i guess🤔
Uni knot is less bulky and easier to tie.
At the end of the day, it's just a single line in the hook. Palomar is the best
That's not a pitzin knot it's a clinch knot

Agreed, it is not the best knot. Blanket weed is painful stuff for sure. The Tag end really does come off at the worst possible angles when cinched.
bull crap , Gerald swindle has been promoting this knot for 25 years
