Eye splice

In this video I demonstrate how I splice an eye (loop) onto an end of the rope. This technique is very important for working with rope, especially for sailors, scouts and those using rope on a regular basis.

The eye splices are also covered in the ABoK from number 2725 and on.

Enjoy!

Excellent! The key was how you explained the first 3 buried. I think other teachers on this subject should watch this video. 🇨🇦

the sound of me not going nuts anymore while trying to do an eye splice getting my instructions from a book. Thanks very much for taking the time to make a clear, easy to follow video.

You're a star, I've watched several videos explaining the same thing and yours was so much better and more easily understood. Thanks. Got it now.

I watched 3 different videos on how to create the eye-splice. this was by far the clearest and most straight forward video I found. Easy peasy.

Thank you Mark, after trying a lot I found your video and it was really simple to follow. I completed the eye splice on my first attempt after watching.

Thank you Mark. After watching this I told my wife that this is pretty much the most perfect instructional video I have ever seen. I cannot possibly imagine how 23 people gave it a thumbs down except that they must have been sniffing glue.

Excellent presentation. Easy to understand and simplified. Thank you, it cleared up the problem I was having.

Thank you Mark. I needed to braid a loop onto a rope to secure a piece of safety equipment for work and found your description and your video the clearest and easiest to follow. Now learning this everything seems so much simpler with braiding. I think that you have set me on a path.

This was very difficult but i got it done, thanks to you. My only tools were a pair of nail clippers and a fork handle and it was fairly difficult, especially since it works better on looser ropes but mine was extremely tight rope i had gotten of an abandoned lumber site. But its strong, the loop is so strong i can hang and swing from it.
