Instead of pushing I would use a pulling needle such as a D-splicer. Way easier to use. And a pair of scissors to cut just for safety

If you'd really like to know what things break at, you likely could work with the HowNot2 Youtube channel. He has a new, more convenient break-test machine to test things and has other sailing-specific break testing content. https://www.youtube.com/@HowNOT2

I have a large amount of knot soft shackles I use frequently for any reason. Originally made most for sails on lines as staysails. Now they can be used for everything. I would like to know more on the comparative use of styles? Possible a non metallic dogbone will have me try this. Think I could mold resin impregnated rope section if none are available. Thanks for another fine tutorial.

Good to see this one again. I copied this technique to tie loops on low friction rings. They then can be hitched to rails or stanchions for temporary re-directs.

Thanks Herbie!
Brilliant!
I was planning to change the hanks of my stay sail to soft-hanks. So this is perfect.
Important question:
Where did you get the dogbones? Any option in EU?
Cheers, Carlos

Herby – very cool video. Appreciated! Is the dog bone the only option for hardware for closing these soft shackles? Is it the tight space between the sail edge and the stay that keeps the soft shackle from releasing? How do you make sure that if a soft shackle comes undone, you don't lose it? Thanks!

Is there a way to predict the decreased breaking-strength of a non-tapered splice, or is that one of those "There are waaay too many variables to accurately predict that" things?

For instance, you said that the shackle has a breaking strength of 10,000 lbs, but how much is that reduced if you don't taper? Is the new limit 9,000 lbs? 200 lbs? Is that calculable, or would you have to do a bunch of "bad" shackles and yank on them until they failed? (Doing an "n" of 30 to get a statistically-significant test sounds ... tedious) I.e., is there a nice mathematical equation, or would you have to "engineering" it?
