Really nothing more then a slightly more complex single fishermans knot. I know of no research stating that one knot is stronger then the other. You are more likely to use this when hooking two climbing ropes together to rappell. You would also use this for joining cordalette end together to form a loop.

XLNT video Mike. This is the only demo I have found that gives the correct direction. Even in climbing I see it tied the wrong direction, giving a knuckle-e (ugly) looking knot. Thanks.
