    Very Bad misprint int New England Safety Blue product sheet?

    Is this a really bad misprint or do I not understand something? In the splicing instructions it says "3 Strand Eye Splice". When I did my eye I used the hivee instructions https://www.treestuff.com/store/images/pdf/BSB.pdf

    How's the splice today?

    Since I couldn't splice the cordage I took the leap and gave it a run at a120' hank of safety blue I just got. It went great! First was a 15' lanyard where I learned the woes of the final bury. That looked ok so I put one on the climb line,. The 2nd took about half an hour and now they're...

    Splicing sterling 9mm cord

    After some practice I've srt'd the last couple 30-35' dead wood jobs (by jobs I mean in my yard). I've taken a liking to the distel and have been tying the hitch with a very long piece of 9mm sterling cord w/ anchor knotted on each end into the biner. That's 4 rope diameters wide on the biner...
