Скачать или смотреть Stronger Soft Shackle (MK 2)

This version of a Stronger Soft Shackle MK 2 will create a shackle that is 230% stronger that the breaking strain of the rope. This is our new favourite soft shackle as it use a simple overhand knot to create the stopper knot, making it much easier to tie than other variations which use the Button Knot to complete the shackle.

If you need to get the gear to help you complete the splices you can get it by following the links below.

Once you have tied a couple of these you can complete them in minutes, all you need to do is two Brummel Locking splices and one overhand knot. Making this version of the soft shackle by far the easiest that I have tied.

The only down side of this version of the stronger soft shackle is it uses slightly more rope, you have to ensure the tails of the brummel splice with are tucked into the main part of the shackle are long enough for it to extend past the knot and into the main part of the shackle. This gives you 4 thickness at the key part of the shackle (just past he end of the overhand knot). These four thicknesses of rope is what give the stronger soft shackle the breaking strain that is 230% greater than and individual length of rope.

The team at bottom up boats hope you enjoyed today's video and that like us this is not your favourite soft shackle. We believe the MK 2 is far simpler to tie making it a winner in our book.
