I have 3 that were never used. From a safety standpoint, is there any reason not to use them? I see a lot of guys switching to spliced loops and I'm wondering how sewn loops compare strength wise. These are factory Lone Wolf ropes.

Sewn loops are just as strong as splices. Splicing has a cleaner finish. Sewn loops or knots are your only option when the rope is not spliceable and knots are bulkier and weaker than sewn loops. Hope this helps!
