Default knot strength?

How strong is a nail knot (tied with a knot tieing tool)? It seems
significantly stronger than a fishermans knot. In fact, many times if I
try to break off the fly instead of breaking at the knot it breaks in
the middle of the leader!!

(ps, anyone familiar with sabre poles? I have a golden sabre 6/7 8 foot
pole that I want info on)
