    Rope ID

    That's the rope I was thinking of. These 2 ropes are super different from eachother. I wasn't sure if they officially announced sale of that rope yet...which is why I was being a little secretive about it. Tom, are you talking about a climbing line, or is it something else. The one you...

    I haven't seen the flier yet. But I know of 1.5 ropes made by samson called lightning. Before the conversation can begin, we have to make sure we're talking about the right one. Can you scan the flier up here? love nick

    GREAT hitch cord. Good for a small rigging line. Very strong, heat resistant, chafe resistant. There is almost no stretch to that line, so avoid shockloads. It'd be good for lifting applications (to pull a limb up over a house) Good as a zipline, too. love nick

    DARN!!! I should've known. The way to tell the 2 apart is that dyneema is more malleable so the rope feels like 1 big strand. The technora, as you can see in the pic, keeps it's own shape so each strand stays it's own...if that makes sense? Shame on me. I'm going to go study now. love nick

    Amsteel is made by Samson. It is their dyneema 12 strand. I was thinking it could be a version of that rope. They have another rope that is a dyneema vectran blend called thunder or lightning or something like that...it COULD be that...but this doesn't quite look like a blend. Top Hopper, do...

    Rope ID

    Looseness of the braid makes me think it is a high mod line. The sheen/shine of the line makes me think it is a sorta new dyneema or spectra line. Can't tell for sure, but looks to be a low strand count. Maybe 8 strand or 12 strand. Can I get a close up? love nick

    HAH!!! Get it?!?!? Eye? Like an eyesplice??? Thanks, V! You've kind. FWIW, besides 3 strand, I think 16 strand is the easiest used rope to splice. love nick

    It's neolite indeed. You can tell because neolite is the only 16 strand arborist rope with a braided core. Technically, the rope is not spliceable because the manufacturer cannot or has not made splicing directions FOR that rope. Used rope has been stretched out, too. That gives you less...
