The needle knot is better because it makes a smoother transition through
the guides. Its only disadvantage is that it's not practical to tie in
the field.
I've been experimenting with the nail-less nail knot and the needle knot
version thereof. Why do you say that it's not practical to tie a needle
knot in the field? My vest usually has enough room to carry a needle and I
usually don't notice the extra weight.
