variables
Hello,
Double-braid can indeed get difficult to splice, after even a little time. There are ways to mitigate this, but the most important thing, at the moment, is to determine what the rope core is made of. If there are marker yarns in the cover you can use them to determine the make and model of the rope. If it has a high-modulus core, you have to do a core-to-core (Class II) splice. And you don't want to tie a knot in an HM halyard.
Fair leads,
Brion Toss
