I'm gonna highjack Mike's thread a little bit... I just decommissioned a 50' length of promaster. It was mainly used for running in the maasdam, and for small/short lowers. Should I replace it with promaster or treemaster? Promaster is easier to work with, but it'll leave my remaining coil less...
I wouldn't discount 3strand. It has it's problems, but every rope does. It's cheap, durable, feels nice in-hand, and may be easy to splice. Treemaster is nasty in just about every respect, but it wears like wire rope. I don't think there's a textile rope that wears better.
You could go with a 16strand. There's also 12strand TrueBlue. VERY heavy, but it has a very nice hand. I can show you TrueBlue. It isn't enough to do much with, but it would give you an idea how it behaves.
