Back Splice or Crown Splice Description:
The Back Splice provides a secure method of preventing the end of a rope from fraying.
The back splice starts with a Crown Knot to redirect the strands back towards the standing end. The splice is completed by braiding the ends back into the standing strands. About three complete "tucks" are sufficient as no load is applied to a back splice.
▶ Tying Instructions:
1.Form a Crown Knot by passing each strand over its neighbor and then tighten the knot.
2. Weave each strand into the rope by passing it over and under alternate strands in the standing end.
3.Complete a second and a third set of tucks to complete the back splice.
4. Use a hot knife to burn off the loose ends.

Looked at half a dozen videos for this splice, but yours is the clearest and easiest to follow

I usually whip my rope ends, but I have two mooring lines to splice loops in today so I'll try this at the other ends. I do this stuff all the sime but I've never been tempted to back-splice. It's good to try differnt things

I never did this back in the day but did other knots. Today I needed to but with this cotton rope I suppose you would bind the ends tightly and trim.

That was an excellent video regardless of how many interlaces. Thanks for the info. You saved me $6 lol.

You have maybe nearly, got the splice somewhere something like suppose to be. Not that it is safety needed,there’s a lot easier and simpler method to splice. From an old rope splicer.

@johnbebb7833 4 жыл бұрын

Professional Yachtmaster (???) - it is common knowledge that the MINIMUM interlace for any form of splice in synthetic rope is FIVE. Not three as is stated & shown in your video. Synthetic ropes are far too slippery to remain integral with only three interlaces.

John? It’s common knowledge that someone trolling the internet just to discredit people who are trying to help others are named Karen. I prefer to call them shithead, but that’s just me.

@cochise422 Жыл бұрын

For 90% of what I use a rope for, 3 interlaces is more than sufficient! You may be correct "professionally", but what a rude person you are to make a comment like that.

@russlehman2070 Жыл бұрын

If you're just using the back splice to finish the end so it doesn't unravel, three is enough. If you are tying a ring or anything that will be loaded into the back splice, you should use five on synthetic rope.

The difficult part is the first knot, but this is very well explained. Thumbs up!
