Regular Splice VS Hockle Splice🫡 Splicing is the BEST way to make a loop on the end of your rope and if done correctly, it can typically maintain around 90%-95% of the rope’s strength. For synthetic ropes we recommend 5 full sets of tucks, and for natural fiber ropes, we recommend 3 full sets of tucks when splicing. Hockle splicing is a great way to make a mid-line spliced loop on your rope. It’s typically used for marine applications like fishing and trapping but can be use for much more! Quic
