Flemish Bend

The Flemish bend provides a quick, secure join between two ropes of light to medium weight. It is preferred by climbers, due to being easy to tie and its security, however, it’s a handy rope or cordage joining knot in most situations. The Flemish Bend is especially useful when quickly joining most types of ropes.
