Brummels vs Grommets in HM line

[Brion Toss]

Hello,
A locked Brummel grommet will test at somewhat less than 200% of the rope strength; loss comes from the ring hitches, and from the expansion of the rope, but it's not a huge loss. I'd rather do this than the two splices mentioned above, but either will work.
We have also begun making "Yippee Sling" grommets, which are unlocked, so need obsessive stitching, for relatively light duty things like small boat tack and head pendants. You can adjust these to get the ideal height before either stitching or replacing with a Brummeled grommet.
Fair leads,
Brion Toss
