Dyneema Eye Splice Demonstration 

Look up Brummel Splice. The bury isn't what locks the line - it is the double pass of the two ends which has been completely omitted here. The bury just keeps the tag end enclosed. What is shown here is weak and prone to slip. A Brummel splice cannot and will not slip under any circumstance.

I've been doing a lot of work with Dyneema line. your method seems simple, but it's very stable and excellent.

this video should be deleted - the technique demonstrated is not safe.

Why would you taper the line first? I would think you finish the splice first.

This video should be titled "How NOT to do a Dyneema eye splice". There should be a locked brummel, the taper should be more gradual (cut like you did but do it strand-by-strand until you've cut 11 strands) and the bury should be much longer (ideally, 72x rope diameter).

I might have been tempted to pass the tail thru the rope a couple of times before buring the tail in the rope even though a Brummel lock can't be done on one end. Lock stitching is not a bad idea as well but in the case of your eye splice, it is critical. Good video. There are allot of scissors out there that will cut UHMD fibers well, look for Kevlar scissors.

Only because I like using it, check out the Selma stainless fids. Don't have to taper (though good idea) or tape the rope to get it into the fid

Are those Samson thimbles not still considered "open"? Even if strong enough, wouldn't continuing the trough through to the front mitigate bend potential? Clearly the only reason they'd manufacture them that way is to save a few bucks, correct?

Hi , great video.I’m looking at splicing a new thimble on my 10mm dyneema rope so use a smaller clevis hook to suit my boats towing eye.What sort of loads can be safely pulled with this splice?

What scissors are you using? You mentioned that they work great but not what there are or where someone might get a pair. Thanks,

Grey is a nice color

where can i find those needles with what name can i look for them please

Great vid

Would you suggest doing this when I swapped my hook out for a pro link?

Hi, what is the make/model of the scissors you are using? Thanks.

Whats the name of that needle you use to do it? I can’t find it. Thank you.

What rope is that

St range way of tapering à belive it is as good but it is the first time I see this😉

What does tappering do i am just building moorings

I do not have a fid! What can I use instead?

Most of this is wrong. I suggest that you investigate the way sailors do tapers and splices.

What is the name for the black thing

What brand are the scissors?

Joke ?

Mate, I just want to scoop out my own eyeballs with a fish hook, good info, mono tone rambling 🤬not such a fan

Dayum take sooooooooooooo long. Boring. Lost me
