    The Reever Knot is a secure bend for joining two ropes. An important attribute of the knot is that each line going in and out of the knot is clamped at two points within the knot. For this reason it is considered secure and resistant to being shaken loose when subject to intermittent loads.
    The Reever Knot appears in an article by C E I Wright and J E Magowan in volume 40 of the Alpine Journal in 1928 as a knot that is recommended for joining two ropes.
    The Vice Versa Bend appears in The Alternative Knot Book by Harry Asher (1989). In the introduction to his 'New System of Knots' he presents a sequence of three new knots, the Simple Simon Over, the Simple Simon Under, and the Vice Versa Bend. The three knots form a developmental sequence that were inspired by aspects of the Sheet bend.
    In his 1995 book, Symmetric Bends: How to Join Two Lengths of Cord, Miles presents a knot theoretic analysis of 60 symmetric bends. The Vice Versa Bend appears as number 19 in this sequence. Miles attributes the knot to Asher and describes it as a 'pure lanyard bend' in which "two ends of equal status emerge from the knot in each of two opposite directions".
    Budworth, a founding member of the International Guild of Knot Tyers, includes the Vice Versa Bend in his 2000 book The Book of Practical Knots. He also attributes the knot to Asher.
    The relationship between the Reever Knot and the Vice Versa Bend was first pointed out by Clements In his 2004 article "The Vice Versa Bend and the Reever Knot". His analysis of the symmetry of the two forms of the knot led him to suggest that the Reever Knot, being completely symmetric, is the better version of the knot. He concludes that the Reever knot is a secure bend that is compact and streamlined in form, and that it deserves to be more widely known and used.
    The knot provides a compact, streamlined and decorative way of joining two ropes. However its primary attribute is that it is resistant against working loose when subject to intermittent loads. The security of the knot arises from the fact that at step 3 in the tying sequence the knot is a Double Harness Bend (ABoK #1420). The additional step of passing the ends through the outer loops to complete the knot results in each line entering and exiting the knot being clamped at two points within the knot.

    You probably have two types of visitors: Those who work with knots every day and those who need one once every five years. I'm one of the latter, and I especially appreciate the clarity of your video, including using ropes of different colors. (So many "how to's" use two white ropes. By Step 5, it's a hopeless spaghetti bowl!) Bravo, Urban Skills!

    For the record, that's a Reever bend, not a Reever knot. When you tie two ropes, or two ends of the same rope, together, it's called a bend. A knot is used on one end of a rope or somewhere along the length of a rope.

    I think you should remove from the label of your video that this is a tip for joining climbing ropes. Joining two climbing ropes together for rappel involves a couple best practice standards such as an EDK and if someone uses your knot and it should slip under tension, it will likely result in someone or some climbing pair's death.

      That's not true. This special Knot was published by an Alpine Journal and is very strong and non-slippery. It is frequently confused with the Vice Versa Knot or Square Knot, but that would be a simpler knot.

      It depends on what you want. The Square is easy to remember, easy to inspect for proper tying, and does not jam easily. The Reever is nearly impossible to remember and nearly jammed on me with a moderate load. The Reever is more secure than the Square, and you may want a jamming knot for whatever reason.
      If joining two ropes, my personal favorites are the Zeppelin Bend, Butterfly Bend, and Sheet Bend. If I want the bend to be permanent (jam), I will tie a Double Fisherman Bend.
