My Dad (❤RiP) had this down pat. All our ropes had these or tidy spliced ends, and I regret not getting him to teach me. Thank you for this clear and concise tutorial; today is the day I finally learned how to do it!
Exactly what I thought😢. My Dad did that splicing for all ropes on his sailing boat and took me to sailing Trips on a lake . I never asked hin to teach me splicing and now as a 50+ year old woman I need to learn from YT.
Woo-hoo! A friend today told me his dad taught him, which reminded me a stable hand taught me when I was 10 ❤ Thank you, stable hand whose name I forgot!
My grandfather taught me how to do this 45 years ago, I was 8. Somehow I figured out how to do this about 25 years later from memory. Now I've totally forgotten how to weave the ends. Thank for explaining it like my grandfather did so many years ago. It all came back to me as soon as you started. Thank you for reminding me of a special memory of a little boy and his grandfather..
My father used to do these splicing knots, but I have not learned. He passed away so many years ago. I was looking for how to do these knots for many years! Thank you very much for teaching.
We eye-spliced a halyard back on to a fire service extension ladder. We took colored markers to color each of the three strands differently making it easy to trace. Worked very well. Then we discovered we cut our rope too short. Practice makes perfect they say. Thanks for your tutorial!
I'm so grateful and quite honestly amazed! I'm the nagging wife who's fed up of waiting for her husband to install the tree swing and I learnt this first time! No need to pause or anything! My baby brain stops me from remembering my age but you managed to teach that brain of mine! And I can remember and do more splices without having to come back! Thank you !
I want to hang an old ladder from the ceiling in my house with a jute. Watched the video twice and tried my first splice. Husband said it was a good as many he'd seen on boats. Thanks for easy(ish) and clear instructions. I'm confident!
Great video! My dad taught me to spice as a child, but not having used the skill in some time, I had forgotten the basics! My dad passed away recently, so I couldnt ask hime for a refresher 😢 I was happy to have found your video with your clear and patient instructions. Thank you!
I just trimmed the ends of 3 ropes. And I'm talking less than an hour ago. Nice nylon so i burned all the ends. Now i have to cut the ends off and put these loops on 3 ends. THANKS A LOT!
I used to do these in scouts. We got pretty good at it, but sadly I'd forgotten how to do it. Thanks for the refresher. And thanks for the reminder of a great memory.
This brought back an old memory. Back in 1973 my sister had a horse. She had some manilla 3 strand, so I spliced an eye with a spring loaded clip on the eye. She used it for years to clip the horse to a tree while she brushed or saddled him up. Sure I could have tied it on with a knot, but the splice is much more elegant!
At last . . .!! . . an easy to follow splicing video ! I've watched several and always struggled with the content . . . and the delivery. (Especially the yank ones !) This has done it for me. Thank you so much . . now up and running, complete with Swedish fid which makes it even easier. Still have this on watch list . . . just in case !😀
Hi Tom thanks for this clip I've just finished my first splice, perfect instructions..I coloured my 3 strands differently so I didn't get confused, Frankie.
I really like your presentation style. Clear, no nonsense, no fanfare, no fluff with simple demonstrations. Thanks to you, I can now splice an eye in the end of a rope. Well done. Subscribed.
Nice Video I haven't done this since I was a kid and my dad showed me. I needed one and totally forgot how to do this **correctly** great tutorial and brings back memories of dad showing me....
omg pfff FINALLY, i live in Belgium and searched for a splicing video in my country, but they all sucked and were unclear, thank you very much for this video, it finally succeeded! tomorrow i have my exam ! :D
Thanks WhyKnot. I been doing some of these wrong and some correct. Couldn't figure out why. It was the 3rd step. I was putting all the strands forward instead of the 3rd (right strand) one down and back. Finished product put it on the floor and roll it with your shoe. It'll help the strands flatten out and fall in place.
Excellent job. You explained slowly enough to follow and didn't say "Easy peasy" once. Everything is easy when you know how but not until then. Thank you!
Great video, decades ago whilst attending aircraft maintenance trade school we were taught this (including steel control cables which was really prickly), as well the back splice, which I'm all way's forgetting how to start with the proper "crown knot", so I'm subscribing just for those "old timer's" moment's :) !
Same thing the other guy said . The video had helped me a ton . Pictures did no justice. 100% thanks to you . Took me no more that 2 mins after the video to get it right .
Thanks WhyNot. I was really struggling to eye splice a 16mm nylon mooring line for my boat & even the web pages with images weren't very clear. Your video got me on the right track & I ended up with a great new line with eye splices at both ends to replace an old one that was almost worn through. Great tutorial!
Thank you come across this while hunting for instructions on how to re cord the close line found this much more useful and relaxing. She can hang the towels over the hand rail im getting myself a beer and some rope. Have a great day cheers
THANK YOU! I'm teaching knots to a group of teen Pathfinders (similar to Scouts but co-ed) and myself, and we were struggling with our splices. This video was very easy to follow when we couldn't get it through other instructional tutorials. We're now searching your channel for the Matthew Walker's or Double Crown knots.
The ropes are durable and just like the ones at the gym. ruclips.net/user/postUgkxTFxba6lNeHrZaHoY_LXe6ZzmMfaipnwu Caution: I bought the 50 feet ropes and they are long and heavy so make sure you have the space (I do have the space). If I was to do it again I would probably get a shorter version as 50 feet (25 feet each side) is a little long.

Thank you, stable hand whose name I forgot!
This is a great help. One thing I did was color the ends of each strand to keep them straight as I was weaving.
My grandfather taught me how to do this 45 years ago, I was 8. Somehow I figured out how to do this about 25 years later from memory. Now I've totally forgotten how to weave the ends. Thank for explaining it like my grandfather did so many years ago. It all came back to me as soon as you started.
Thank you for reminding me of a special memory of a little boy and his grandfather..
Just like me .... good story mate
Exactly my thoughts as well... My granddad passed away when I was young. He taught me rope work Knott's and leather work. good comment.
I am a retired merchant marine bosun, good job very clear instructions.
Finally...someone who knows how to keep his hands out of the way while teaching. Best video on this . Thanks you so much!
Everytime I need to splice I always come back to this video. The easiest most basically explained splicing video there is 👌
Thank you for doing this video. I learned this from my grandfather. It will be a lost art if we don’t teach the next generation 👍🏻
My father used to do these splicing knots, but I have not learned. He passed away so many years ago. I was looking for how to do these knots for many years! Thank you very much for teaching.
Thank you! So very helpful. My husband asked me to do this and I wanted to do it right😊

I was happy to have found your video with your clear and patient instructions.
Thank you!
Clear Concise and No Bullshit. You are a gift from God, thank you.
Best 3strand splice video I seen.
I just spent hours trying to do a "Pro Splice" as described by Brion Toss in his book. This is much, much easier to follow!
The clearest demo' for an eye-splice I've ever seen. Thank you for taking the time to share your knowledge.
Great tutorial mate, very easy and clear to understand. Thank you. Regards Scott.
Remembering to go down on the third. Always seem to have to revisit these. Thanks for posting and thanks for RUclips. 😂
Thanks for your video so I know how to make a loop . I'm so happy when I finish my robe without you I won't do it. And thanks to RUclips. Thanks

Thanks from Austria. Very easy to understand, great job.
This is a great tutorial. Splices are won or lost on the first tucks. This explains really well how to make the first tuck correctly.
Thank you! You saved my life
Learnt this in Boy Scouts, and taught it to others in the Navy. Good job. My appreciation to you.

Excellent explanation. Also, I clicked the video expecting to hear another US-American speak, but your awesome 'Strayan accent put a smile on my face!
Awesome how-to. Got my first one in the first attempt and set up my whole boat in an hour (6+ knots)🤙🏻
Excellent job teaching a slightly difficult knot,
Thank you
Thank you so much for this video! I was able to do this for two tree swings and they look amazing!
Hi Tom thanks for this clip I've just finished my first splice, perfect instructions..I coloured my 3 strands differently so I didn't get confused, Frankie.
Fantastic tutorial, super easy to follow. Cheers mate. 👍
Work perfect for me ,, you made it very clear on the starting point which was giving me trouble
thnx very much.. )
Scouts was a long, long time ago. Thank ya sir, for the refresher.
Worked in the fishing industry for 40 years and spliced many a ropes my father taught me when i was young
the best explaination of a splice i have seen
Just did an eye splice on my anchor line . Clear and concise instructions made it a breeze .
I was looking for this method for jewelry. Thank you for posting this
I really like your presentation style. Clear, no nonsense, no fanfare, no fluff with simple demonstrations. Thanks to you, I can now splice an eye in the end of a rope. Well done. Subscribed.
Great video with No useless rhetoric! A quality demonstration and explanation!
Matursuwun...mugi saget nambah ilmu..nambah pengetahuan..nggih saget damel panguripan...
Nice Video I haven't done this since I was a kid and my dad showed me. I needed one and totally forgot how to do this **correctly** great tutorial and brings back memories of dad showing me....
I had forgot how to do this .excellent refresher!
Thank you. This is a really great explanation. As always.
That was the clearest instruction I've seen so far. Thanks.
Thank you, managed to get a 30cm rope spliced thanks to this vid!
Perfect 👍 I just followed your steps and spliced two loops in my rope first time 🤙🤙🤙
finally, someone that has figured out how to show this technique with the correct camera angle. Thank you
Thank you, key part for me was the start and identifying middle, left and right! Cheers buddy
Nice, simple explanation, THANKS!

I've been braiding these for years and your demonstration is correct and easy to follow. Thank you!
It's not easy to follow! I've been watching the video for 3 Days. It still makes no sense!
@@xv7501225 over one and under one. There are only 3 so it’s quite easy.
That's the clearest instructions I've seen on the eye splice. Thank you!
Applying this to the line on an Alaskan fishing vessel. Thanks mate.
That third one kept giving me trouble. You made it very clear
Nice and clear. I have done hundreds of eye splices in double and single braid I think I’ll try it in 3 strand. Thanks.
Brilliantly Explained.
It’s the one down on the right third strand I always failed to remember. Figured it out. Thanks.
Great video, easy to follow, thanks.
Just wanted to say thank you !! Best video I could find on how to do this splice.
Boy Scout 101 when I was 12. Thanks for the memories. Thanks for showing others how to do it.
Excellent job. You explained slowly enough to follow and didn't say "Easy peasy" once. Everything is easy when you know how but not until then. Thank you!

Doing this in school, this helped a lot
Excellent explanation and illustration. Might have to try for my dinghy.
What a great demo. So simply presented. Thx & liked.
thanks WhyKnot… couldn't follow what others were saying but your tutorial was easy as
Very clear instruction. Thanks. I have often made a pigs ear of it in the past!
this is the easiest to follow tutorial i have seen so far on Eye splices THANK YOU!
Marie-Clare Parks I'm glad you could follow. Thanks for your feedback.
WhyKnot thx for the help now I can kill myself thx alot man
Nice work. Clear and easy to understand. Thankyou for a great "how to" video...
Very much explained I am splicing my own birthing rope myself through your Chanel. Mark Bezzina

Thanks man, you're are a lifesaver
One of the best splicing vids.
Well done simple is better.
Thanks

Cheers Mate, I now have my trailer ropes all sorted. Easy to follow.
Great tutorial man!

Great video, I'm about to make some tricep rope attachments for my gym/weights setup and this has helped hugely!
Thankyou 👍
Clear, well done instructions. Picked up some good points by watching someone do this.
