- Double Dragon Loop - How to Tie the Double Dragon Loop - Very Secure End of Line Loop Knot.
The Double Dragon Loop is one of the lesser known loop knots, yet it would appear to be as good as if not better that some of the other loop knots. The Double Dragon Loop is relatively easy to tie and has the advantage of not being as easy as some loops to become easily untied if shaken.
In this video I show two methods of tying the Double Dragon Loop. The fist method is just putting a loop in the end of a line, which is a little easier than the second method of tying the Double Dragon around an object.
This knot is not mentioned in Ashley's Book of knots, but it would appear to be a close relative to the Perfection Loop.

Cool knot. Adding this to my favorites. I love your videos. My granddaughter asked my daughter, why is Pop Pop tying so many knots, and my daughter said, "it's good for his brain." it's true. I find that by learning new knots and practicing them every day not only comes in handy in my yard work and so many other things, but it does help with mental acuity for this septuagenarian. I just started learning knots last year when I was needing some knots for straightening up bushes and I said to myself, this is ridiculous, I'm 72 and only know how to tie my shoes and the simple overhand knot. So that started my quest to educate myself in knots. Of course we didn't have TH-cam most of my life and I never made it far in cub scouts. So knots are my new hobby and help keep my brain a little sharper.
Thanks Johnny. I really didn't enjoy many other TH-cam knotters until I found your channel, and your knot library is great!
I also enjoy knotting to keep the mind sharp. I also find that as I tie certain knots, I see other knots I know within that knot.
@@MonotonyTV yes I noticed that too, A lot of knots have basic resemblance of other knots in them. Two basic knots that come to mind are the Bowline and Prusik. Once you get the knack of a handful of basic knots it becomes easier remember others you learn. Still, for me, daily practice of new knots learned is necessary to be able to recall and use them when the need arises. My absolute favorites are the adjustable grip hitch and the Prusik.
Thanks for taking the time to view and also make a comment, very much appreciated.
My comment is ... i always like it when you give a slow motion after each demonstration.
The questions I always have when I watch one of these knot tying videos are: "can this knot easily be untied after using it; is it secure; and why would I choose to use it"? You do a great job at clearly showing how to tie the knots.
Yes, I do feel that there should be videos on strength test and untying afterwards on every knot. Thanks for taking the time to view and also make a comment, very much appreciated.
I've used this knot to tow vehicles and also working on boats and it is relatively easy to untie after it has had a heavy load put on it ( depending on what kind of line is used)
I love the perfection knot, and had tried this when playing with it. Nice to know the name and how to do it on a standing post. Good stuff!
Great instruks 👍
Thanks for taking the time to view and also make a comment, very much appreciated.
Nice, clear explanation. Seems like a great alternative to the figure 8/bight that is my usual in that spot.
No banter, you OK? ;-)
@@KnottingKnots all good, just a burst of maturity.
Thanks for the spending your time to make the vid.
Отлично показано, спасибо!
Спасибо, что нашли время, чтобы просмотреть, а также оставить комментарий, очень признательны.
Used this knot when hanginga tarp for a long time now..I tend to use it more in the middle of the line and using an automatic truckers hitch looped through it to get the high tension on the line.
Which brings me to the point it is not just an end of line knot.. it works equally as well in the mid line also.
Loving it David, great to hear someone actually using a knot in the field!!!
I find it difficult to estimate how much loop you end up with in the middle of the line, is there a trick you use?
@@IndigoUltra If your reference is to tying the loop in the centre of a tarp line I usually go large with a three finger width.. If your referring to tying it round a post...I use a kalmyk knot for speed and a rapid release.
If I want a loop at the end of a line I use a zepplin loop if it has to be precise diameter, otherwise I use a double dragon or a bowline.
I have to be honest... the art of knot tying is a subjective skill,one that after many years of use every man will swear by what they use and will defend it to the bitter end. (Excuse the pun)
A simple thing such as a loop depends on what you are tying it with. Strength, stretch and security versus speed of tying or undoing.
Every loop and every knot has it's benefits and cons and it's only through use over a great deal of time that will write your own personal book of knots you will come to treat as a familiar friend.
@@zchuss1 thanks very much.

That's a very cool knot... Thanks for sharing...
Hi Johhny Debt,
Love watching your knot videos especially like the website you use too. Cheers & keep knotting 😉
Glad to hear that you are getting some use out of it all. Thanks for taking the time to view and also make a comment, very much appreciated.
Isn't it just a perfection loop, but wrapping the working end around twice for the last step instead of once? (When using the method of tying around an object)
great vid
Thnxs
Cheers Mate!
Same way we done them in the Army
What did you use it for in the Army?
🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽Great! Thank you si much for this instructional video, Johnny. I’m going to adopt this more from now on. Do you have one with a double pass around the post?
Sadly I do not, can I ask what you are using it for?
@@KnottingKnots Just to be doubly sure it holds, esp around angular points of anchoring that constantly vibrates thereafter wearing off the rope as in a swing for example.
@@mutangpadan5311 Not sure if you know, but there is also the Vibration Proof Hitch: th-cam.com/video/CXJ5Yv_-RQ0/w-d-xo.html
Nice loop, ( and incidentally love the « dress it up smartly ») Seriously, how do you think this loop fairs in terms of untying it after it has been under heavy traction?
I think this knot is more popular because of the name Dragon. Whenever I need a loop at the end of a line I use the Imitation Slipped Bowline: th-cam.com/video/-ZsPYA9aaGE/w-d-xo.html OK, I know that it is slipped, but if dressed smartly, it never fails me.
putting a bite on last feed thru gives a semi rapid release option
Yep, that will work also...........
The S way is a slow version of the “ Flying Bowline” . It is aka the anglers knot in some books.
Love the video. Do you think this knot is like the alpine butterfly knot - where both runnings ends and the loop are all equally strong??
A beautiful loop knot!!! Can it be done on the bight? Keep up the good work.
I don't know, off to have a play!
By the first method you can do it; you do not need the working end.
2nd on my Home Page
or the water bowline or the y-finished bowline?
this one ore the double angler knot? and why?
It's easy to get apart after a load has been put on it too.
😍👏👏👏😘
Thanks for taking the time to view and also make a comment, very much appreciated. Are you more of a practical or decorative knotter?
That is a good loop but not safe for high loads. Use with moderate loads should be fine.
Thanks for taking the time to share this information, I always love to hear about knots and cordage being used in action! What would you consider to be a better loop knot?
This is the loop Maui tied in Moana
