    How's the splice today?

    You were right Carl, it was a SpLife with funky stitching (Which is handy as I can just re-apply the sticker now😄)

    How's the splice today?

    I'll have a proper look. I glanced at the label as I unstuck it and I'm sure it said Slaice. I turned the rope around and spliced the other end so can still have a look and see.

    Yeah, 100% a Slaice. You're right, the stitching does look a bit haphazard!

    Manufacturer did that one, can't take any credit for that I'm afraid!

    How's the splice today?

    I was contacted by some hipsters who wanted some rope splicing to make shopping bags. All I would need to do is make some simple split-tails. Got it down to about 15 minutes per splice. They were going to sell them for about 145 pounds. Never heard any more sadly. Will look into doing the...

    Tachyon SpLife. Much nicer to do than the old Tachyon splice. Done on used, old rope but bet its a breeze on new stuff

    How's the splice today?

    Not familiar with that rope but if the cover braid is loose there is the chance it can milk and the core moves inside the cover, happens on loads of double braid. Stitching it would be fine. The problem comes when you stitch it or cut it with a hot knife and the cover and core aren't equalised...

    How's the splice today?

    Yeah, Don't remember splicing new rope it feels like so long since I've been asked. Feels like I'm only given things that have been climbed on in a swamp or pulled cars out of ditches. Keep meaning to buy a load of new rope from Courant just to have a play with it but keep wasting money on food...

    How's the splice today?

    First go splifing Drenaline. Quite like it. Cross between a double braid and a 16 strand splice. Think it came out OK. Did a Tachyon and a Marlow 16 strand to complete the trilogy. Only way it could have been worse was with a Fly or Kernmaster thrown in😄 All were used as well
