Springer Knot

Love the way the videographer gets the great shots of John’s hands at the most critical portion of the tie.

I agree I couldn’t see what was going on behind John’s hand when he was going between both lines !!!

Also a fan of & owner of the ashley bk of knots. I found a knot almost identical to this knot called the jansek special same knot but tag goes through the 2 loops 3 times instead of 2. Ive never had it fail. When tied right it looks like a fist & the tag sticks out from main at a 90 degree angle. Fail proof knot. 100 % line strength knot.

loved this video as much as the Crimping Aboard the Royal Star video! That crimp video is what landed me a 211# blue-fin! plan on using this knot in the future!

I learned this knot from Mr Collins himself. It’s the only knot I ever use. Simple, clean, and strong as fuck.

This knot can be referenced in the Ashley Book of Knots as ABoK #1843 which Ashley gives credit to the anonymous author of the 1904 publication "Handbook of Boat Sailing"

Couldn’t visualize John’s step-by-steps while listening to the show. This is too damn easy. I can tie this knot now behind my back... with my eyes closed!

Much easier than San Diego jam

quite possibly the worst camera angle ever
