Thoughts on this knot?

G'day,

Been playing around and researching different joining knots, after ending up with quite bulky knots tying 4lb nano to 6lb vanish using a double uni. The nano section of the knot is quite slim no worries, but the fluro side is a bit chunky. After realising a blood knot ends up quite slim ended with this - a Blood to Uni joining knot. Let me know if it exists?

Basically, you double the lines over like normal, with the braid tag, tie a uni knot with as many wraps as you like (I use 8 quite successfully), tighten it up, then flip it around and on the fluro tag tie a half blood knot instead of another uni (5-6 wraps does it I reckon).

Thoughts and does it exist?

Will test it out this arvo when the wind dies down a little...
