Small metal punch works well for me . Its a very cheap alternative. You can ground the tip by chucking it into drill and spinning it while using angle grinder to remove material .Just make sure its spinning in opposite directions .

Random factoid: The marlin fish was actually named after the marlinspike tool, and not the other way round. I def would've lost that bet. 'Marlin' was Dutch (maybe?), and refers to working with small ropes, and binding furled sails.

Lowes sells a nice little marline spike ( $8 scratch awl) for some one just starting out. Maxam makes a nice marlinspike knife, about the same price. The spike is w-a-y too sharp for paracord. I personally have deep seated feelings about the Wichard stainless steel, drop forged, marine spike, bottle opener, shackle key multi tool. A work of art that caresses the hand, as it caresses paracord into beautiful gaucho style neckerchief slides. IMHO the finest marine spike at any price.

I bought the titanium & carbon fibre one a few months ago. I like the sharp tip but still have others with a smooth tip.

A nice spike, well made. I agree with you on the point, too sharp. I like a flat, blunt tip. That profile @ 5 " fits my hand and performs well. Thanks for the post.

Its also useful for camping, leathercraft projects and stuff. And yes.. Its a rabbit hole next door to mini Pry's😅

Well, I’m still able to view your vids. I hope I’ll be able to continue… love your content man 👍

I honestly though this thing was one of those rock spikes that are essential to the safety of mountain climbers. I never would've guessed it was a go-to tool for sailors

A little longer and it would be a weapon for the Thorn Princess...

[Llyd_ApDicta]

Has anyone ever tried throwing those? At a target? Titanium is probably near indestructible and the paracord at the end should work like a stabilizer...

Like to see one sold with diamond coating, for sharpening, too.
Dual purpose tool.
Thanks for sharing!

I'd be happy to buy that brass spike if you'd like to part with it.😁

OK for one thing, that is a Fid, which is used for working with Line, not Rope. In the marine trade, anything under 2.5 inches is line. Except Manilla, all Manilla is either Rope or Cable. A Marlin Spike is used for working on Wire, and doesn't look like that Fid. I don't know why people want to call Line tools, Marlin Spikes, it has puzzled me for over 60 years. A Flick is the small tool for Line, that most folks ashore call a needle. A Needle is what we use to make and repair Nets with. None of this would mean anything but, you had to throw marine work in, and when you do that, the correct marine terms should be used.
Excellent video, other than that.

What's the knot/weave you were doing at 2:50?
