If we do a rope-to-chain slice without an eye, but by cris-crossing the strand pairs with the chain (similar to how it's done with the samson's 3-strand rope-to-chain instruction pdf), will this change the order of the marked/"grey" strands tucking underneath the non marked/"white" strands somehow?
Thank you for the feedback! For an 8-Strand to chain we would just use an 8-Strand Class 1 splice and make the eye as small as possible to hold a chain link.
Excellent ... Very Clear. Thanks
Nice information

Would be great if you can make a video on how to connect 8 strand to chain for a windlass anchor

Or thimble on the rope, then a shackle then chain?
