Book -Knots for Boaters by Brion Toss
"A Chapman`s Nautical Guide by Brion Toss. There are a lot of knot books around, but this is the only one that focuses on those knots, new & old, which are most useful in contemporary life; takes the nature of synthetic line into account (many once useful knots just won't work under high loads in slick line); and shows knots in ways that are designed to be easy to learn and remember.
Still a very good source - with all of the following and more: Basic Knots, Fancy Knots, Working Knots, Belays and 3 strand splicing.
Soft cover. pp 192."
Marlingspike, 6" - Oak Handle
A sturdy 6 inch spike of the best quality Jsteel, with duck bill point for smooth insertion. Small enough for tiny line, strong enough for splicing steel wire. Solid white oak handle.
Marlingspike, 4" Mini - Oak handle
"A small 4 inch spike of the best quality steel, with duck bill point for smooth insertion. Great for tiny line. Solid white oak handle. "
