Instructions told me to tie a reef knot - I did a zeppelin bend instead
It's superior by far when you may want to ever actually u tie the rope. But my experience with some ropes is that the action of loading and unloading or otherwise jostling the knot can cause it to come loose.
I sometimes tie off the loose ends together to prevent that but it's hella ugly and bulky.
Any advice on using this knot?
