This is the perfect starter kit to begin building covered and uncovered Dyneema loops, and splicing single and double braid ropes up to a half inch diameter. All fids are non-corroding stainless steel, for longevity in a boat’s tool locker, and the long-lasting ceramic knife will never rust. The self-adhesive fid-gauge/ruler can be stuck to a bench or a movable ruler (or one of each!), to make double-braid splices easy and fast.
Compact, portable, and durable, there’s little that can’t be done with what is essentially the backbone of every modern rigger’s toolkit.
Save money by bundling the extras: a super-strong pair of micro-serrated scissors, and the definitive manual of Modern Splicing.
The Classroom kit includes scissors, but no book–rather, it’s packed with extras specific to the rigging classes offered by IYRS.
