I agree with the rest, I have started about a month ago, but you really give the best explanation of the eye splice.

[@neilmcnamara8137]

Absolutely the easiest to follow explanation I’ve seen well done - would be great to see you show a eye splice with 8 strand 😄👍🏻

[@SeaGearMarineSupply]

We'll see what we can do for you!

[@l.horseman5704]

You are the best person I have found to show how to do a eye splice. Thanks so much.

[@SeaGearMarineSupply]

Thanks for the kind words!

Best splice video I've watched!!! Out of at least a dozen! Thanks for sharing your expertise with such simplicity.

[@SeaGearMarineSupply]

Thanks for checking it out!

"If it looks a little lumpy, just take it in your hands and give it roll!" Same advice my Dr gave me!!!😉
But seriously, nice clear, to the point vid. I'm pretty good with my knots but always been a bit intimidated by eye/thimble splicing, just felt I'd lose track of the strands half way through, & it'd be time consuming, would always take the easy way out & whip the tag to the standing, (in much smaller dia rope/cord) but this seems pretty simple to follow and I understand it's the proper way to do it, much more permanent & secure. Will definitely give it a try. Cheers 👍🍻

Thanks for the kind words and taking a look

Great - I like the tip you gave about starting at top dead center at 2:43. I think that first tuck is most critical to getting a splice that lays properly at the apex of the thimble. Thanks.

Thanks for checking it out

[@Duke4ever188]

Thank you for the great explanation. It’s very much appreciated.👍🏻

[@forrestdoody2059]

GOOD JOB !!

[@clintcarter123]

Are you using galvanized or stainless thimbles?

[@highanddryful]

Thank you. So if I understand, the first tuck of each strand end does not evolve an over and under? I'd love you to reply please xxx

[@serj6386]

great!

[@pdloder]

What do you do with the dangles?

[@SeaGearMarineSupply]

You can trim them back a bit! but not too much, you need some tag end. Thats what keeps the splice from coming undone

[@UKrissy]

Can't see a thing, sorry

[@SeaGearMarineSupply]

Glasses?

[@davidgagnon6476]

Too fast, need close ups

[@SeaGearMarineSupply]

Press Pause!

[@bogus_not_me]

I don't understand WHY you put a whip on the end you need free to do a proper splice BEFORE you did the splice. I was taught year ago by Coast Guard bo'suns that you splice first, then whip.
