Think I'm gonna give this a chance. When looking for static kermantle rope I'm not finding any dull or hunting colors. I would also like eyes already spliced in if possible as I am ordering extra for a backup tether/linesman belt.
 
I have Sterling HTP 9mm from Treestuff. It's lime green and it's not splicable but can have a sewn eye. I am not sure I trust the sewn eye and it took 3 shipments before treestuff got the eye at 5 inches as I requested. The first two were so small I couldn't even get the tag end through them. I just bought Samson Predator spliced from Wesspur and it shipped the same day and was perfect.
 
I bought my SRT rope from Sherrilltree. If you want a streamlined rope without a knot, sewn eye is the way to go. I went with Teufelberger KMIII 9.5mm black rope with a Petzl small ring fitted into a tight sewn eye. Total cost for the 40' rope, ring, and sewn eye splice was $87 shipped, arrived in 4 days.

Great lightweight static rope with little bounce.

I have no complaints but no real point of comparison.

Great service and nice rope. Like it more than predator and tethrd tope overall i think, even with the knotting.
