salbrecher Posted January 15, 2004 Posted January 15, 2004 Is it safe to tie 2 ropes together with a double fishermans knot with 2 different diameter ropes? I have a 11mm and a 8.5mm. it will be used for toproping. Quote

KeithHow Posted January 15, 2004 Posted January 15, 2004 Also, figure eight on a bight to rewoven figure eight for ropes of different diameters. Quote

bunglehead Posted January 16, 2004 Posted January 16, 2004 I just use the knot I use to tie my shoelaces... Oh wait... not spray...sorry... Quote
Janez_Ales Posted January 18, 2004 Posted January 18, 2004 Use a double fishermans on a thick rope and a triple on the thin one. You can also back it up with a double fishermans on each tail. Â And it doesn't matter how long your rope(s) is(are) always have the belayer tie in or make a big knot of some sort on the free end of the rope. Quote
Stonehead Posted January 18, 2004 Posted January 18, 2004 this knot looks hard to tie   OMG. Is that -? Preparing to insert head up ass? Quote
