Comment by Howard P Reynolds on April 2, 2014 at 19:10: That includes me, Tobias. I know nothing about seamanship, lines, shackles. Figured the big marlinspike wasn't for paracord, buy I'm lost beyond that.

Comment by Tobias Gibson on April 2, 2014 at 17:49: Thanks Robert. I thought long and hard before buying this knife. I read a number of reviews and went back and forth and then finally pulled the trigger and bought it. It had truly exceeded my expectations especially for the price I paid.

Howard the marlinspike is pretty good but it designed for larger lines. That's okay, I've got plenty of marlinspikes that work with smaller lines. I think I need to bring a shackle into the cavern and show people how the key works. I think there are a lot of people who have no idea how to break a shackle with a shackle key or spike.

Comment by Howard P Reynolds on April 2, 2014 at 15:45: Nice looking knife (Myerchin), Tobias. Like the big marlinspike.

Comment by Tobias Gibson on April 2, 2014 at 11:05: The Myerchin W100 Offshore System (Fixed Blade Rigging Knife and Marlinspike)
