A quick method for tying the Double Sheet Bend. With a few minutes practice, you can tie it with your eyes closed. This knot is well suited to join similarly sized cordage, but may require additional seizing in large ropes.

Harry Asher's Comment:
"This bend is thoroughly sound... It takes no more than a split second to make the extra turn, and the Double Sheet Bend is the form to use."
--AKB pg. 52
