Excellent!
First, I wish I had seen this years ago. I've lost count of the number of times I've needed to tie two ropes together. Secondly, thanks for the high-quality video. I like the blue background. Everything is in focus, and you presented it in a way that's very easy to follow. I'm a huge fan of "easy" and "simple." LOL! My compliments for a job well done. Five stars from me.

Opinion
I just took a look into my big Larousse encyclopedia in 7 volumes from 1904 : this knot is in there and called "noeud du pêcheur" , I.e. "fisherman's knot. Very classical knot. So Dave is right.
Good video 5*

Fisherman"s Knot
Fishermen use this knot to tie broken lines coz if you just tie two fish lines using an overhand knot, it will just break.

Fisherman's Knot.

I know a better knot. It's called a Constrictor Knot.

I will say this
it looks like a decent knot, but I could for sure make them come apart if I wanted to.

- What are you saying?
  Not useful? If so, why give it a good rating?
  Or, perhaps you can't spell knot. Right?

  The knot in the video is a Double Fisherman's Bend, aka Grapevine bend
  It is NOT a ship shang, sheepshank, sheep dip, shanghai or any other nonsense you can come up with!

- No it is not
  This is not a reef knot. You clearly weren't in the Boy Scouts.
  
  Although a reef knot is an alternative way to tie two ropes together without them slipping.

- you idiot ...
  it would be a disgrace if u were a boy scout ...
  tat isnt reef knot ...
  its ship shang ..
  anyway ... if u pay attention to the strings used to tie up lockets ... they use this knot most of the time ... simply becoz its diameter can be changed ..
  cheers !
  good video btw

- Ship Shang??
  You mean Sheep Shank (actually Sheepshank), and this isn't a Sheepshank knot.
  
  A Sheepshank is used to shorten a single piece of rope, without cutting it.

- Fishermans knot
  As stated, this is a Fishermans knot - particularly good for tying nylon fishing lines
