Where can I get a splice tested?

[joedietz]

I've been learning how to splice my own ropes, so far just 16 strand and double braid. I've followed the instructions and am certain that I've done them correctly, but I'd still like to have a break test done to know how these splices actually perform. Where can I get the testing done and how much does it cost?

I've sent mine to John up at Knot and Rope Supply. Cheap and get a graph print out of how your splice performed and get your destroyed splice back. Neat to see afterwards!

Yup any rope supplier may do it. Maybe try All Gear Inc. Not sure if they do break tests for people though. Knot and Rope supply would be a good place.

Any local tree should work fine
