Yes the I'D works well with the 1/2 NFPA rope we use at the Fire Dept. Its great for up and down movement but tricky (for me) to limb walk and any movements operating "one-handed".
The 1/2 KM-III shows it is a 12mm line, whereas the NFPA rope we use is 12.5 or even a full 13 for some I believe...
Thanks...it appeared to be the single eye ropelogic one at treestuff. I see they carry a double eye for the HC also. I had wondered if the single eye would work for the HC as well as the pinto....looks like it does.
Thanks for that info.

I'm on a Technical Rescue Team with a Fire Department that started specifically including Tree Rescue. I don't see us getting arborist type ropes because of NFPA, so I have been...
Blaze 120ft from Treestuff one eye splice.
Used about 5 times, by that I mean climbing around for a couple of hours each time trying it out.
I'm not an arborist, it hasn't been used for working all day.
Have not seen any pulled fibers. Did run about a 10ft section over some moss, wiped it down...
