With respect to toggles, I was questioning the use of jaws on the stays, not the blocks. I can see advantages of the shackled block, but I am unable to convince myself not to use toggles on the forestay and backstay.

So you would recommend toggles on the stays as well, correct? Can you describe an "upset shackle" ? I am not familiar with that term. Thanks for the advice!
