  • The Figure of Eight Bend is also known as the Flemish Bend
    The Figure of Eight Bend is a great way of securely joining two ropes together.
    What is a Bend in Rope? Often when two ropes are joined together, it is known as a bend, therefore we have a Figure of 8 Bend, as both ropes are joined together using the Figure of Eight Knots.
    What is the Figure of Eight Bend used for? It is a good secure way of joining two ropes together. However, if used for critical loads, the the two working ends should be longer than those shown in the video. Also, for additional security, the two working ends can be tied off to the standing part of the opposite rope. The Figure of Eight Bend is best suited when the two ropes are of equal size.
    The Figure of 8 Bend if dressed correctly is not too difficult to undo, even if the ropes have been heavily loaded.

    The single strand is One of my go to knots, especially when I'm sewing with small thread, a quick stopper knot, and sometimes with a bight, in larger cordage.Very handy. You make it easy and enjoyable, thanks.

    Maybe it should be called the heavy water knot.
