What is the advantage of this knot over the Prusik? I’m scared that there is two more knots that you are relying on and taking care of over a Prusik tied with a jammy. What about using this with a “Prusik cord” that could mes with two sewn eyes
The knot in the picture you copied is the Schwabisch. It’s similar to a Distel hitch and both are much easier to tend than a Prusik.
The knots that form the eyes are called poachers knots or fisherman’s loop. They are commonly used in this configuration in the climbing world.
Yes, sewn eyes are stronger and require less knowledge. Use what you’re comfortable with.
