Greetings, James !
The knot that you show is interesting, in being symmetric
whether loaded A-v-1 or A-v-2 (where the joined ends are
named by A-B & 1-2, B/2 being the unloaded tails in what
you show --only clearly indicated in the topmost image).
For an eye knot, I'd prefer to enter the "rabbit hole" nipping
loop from the opposite side to that in which the tail enters
for the
bowline --i.e., to be reeving the tail in the opposite
direction. And thus I call such eye knots "anti-bowlines".
The basic one(s) do show up in actual use, from time to time.
Trying your knot in some slippery small shopping-bag cord
(yes, I salvage that, occasionally), I see more rotational
movement upon tightening than is comfortable to me;
maybe it will eventually --tails long enough-- come to a
jammed conclusion and the knot hold, but I'd rather not
guess at that! Apparently you've gotten it to hold to breaking
in nylon monofilament fishline?
(I don't see this as all so directly connected to the extended
fisherman's /anchor bend although I see the matching wraps,
but note also the quite different loading of these structures.
And, as for Ashley's urged nomenclature re "bend", I decline
--too much going against that, as Day noted.)
