Weird I love a double surgeons for leader to tippet and haven't had any issue strength wise after switching from a blood knot.
Love the simplicity as many times I find myself throwing more tippet on in low light.
For regular fishing generally only tie a few knots
Uni-uni for braid to flouro/mono but switching over more to the Alberto. Trilene knot for flouro/mono to hook or a Palomar (drop shotting).
