this knot is actually a slip knot. I believe that it tests better than the
clinch knot and improved clinch knot. It is very similar to the Orvis knot
which I believe is easier to tie, and just as strong. However, the Orvis
knot opens up a lot easier, so I do not use it when tying on a dropper rig
to the shank of a barbless hook. In that case i use the Uni knot.
a double uni knot can be used to join two pieces of line together. It is
one of the best knots for that application
