I wasn't aware that it could be spliced, I was told by Wesspur that it had to be sewn and Sterling will also sew it. Didn't ask Sterling about splicing as their timeframes and costs are too high. I'll do more checking.@DanO has Sterling told you that oplux can't be spliced? Or shouldn't be spliced? Seems like there are folks doing sliced eyes on oplux and wanted to hear more about your experience.

Well..... I guess it will hold until it doesn’t.......Hum...well I've used it all season long and it's as tight as it was the day we got it back from knot and rope. That's my year long experience so take it for what it's worth.
Oh...one more thing. We called Wespur first and they said they would sew it but before they will do a spliced eye, they wanted to do their standardized testing on the rope itself.
LOL...can't argue with that statement.Well..... I guess it will hold until it doesn’t.......
I was just pokin fun. Kinda like when my boy asked me how long his fish could go without eating.........My response was “until it dies”LOL...can't argue with that statement.
I'm not a big risk taker but I do feel very confident in the splice. Just showing you guys a spliced eye and that it can be done. If you don't want to get one...don't get one.

I would be willing to bet http://www.knotandrope.com/ is about to get their doors blown off.
I may go down there sometime soon with the Oplux that I have and ask some questions and maybe have some perform a splice or two.
Sure thing... sounds good.If you go, please post whatever you find out. Better yet, shoot me a PM before you go. If I can get free, I could just meet you there since it's just a few minutes away
I know that we, WEI, were told by Sterling that it could not be spliced. Obviously there is a way. But manufacturer wouldn't recommend it beforeI wasn't aware that it could be spliced, I was told by Wesspur that it had to be sewn and Sterling will also sew it.
