1/2" Marlinspike

A Fantastic Piece of Steel, Beautiful, and works so well for what does while feeling great in the hand, and the video tutorial on the knot was very good so you don't need to be self conscious about your abilities to finish it off, it's nice and pointy without being sharp and if you get it engraved, it's actually engraved so it won't rub off like some printing, it's a fine piece of work and I wouldn't be surprised if I found myself buying more of these same spikes in the coming months to supplement this ones awesomeness

I bought this because backtracking while working Paracord is a pain and so is tightening knots but what surprised me most is how good it just feels to hold in hand. I wish I had more projects to do now I have this tool

I got the Marlinspike as well as the Leather Sheath Kit. It was fun using the Marlinspike right off to assemble its own sheath! When I was done putting the kit together I was astounded by the quality of the fit and finish of the entire product. I have other Marlinspikes, but this one wins 1st place. Beautiful and extremely handy. The design isn’t just nice to look at, it works really well. I work with rope regularly and I’m impressed by this product and would highly recommend it. Well engineered and produced to the highest quality… like everything I’ve seen offered on Awesome For Sale .com - top notch gear coming from a top notch mind.

I have supported this team in the past, and they did not disappoint. As a bonus, I was the winner of a free sheath (pre-assembled) by timing my order.

This is the perfect size for a marlinspike. I had originally planned on using this for splicing natural fiber ropes and cables, but I'm picking up some of the uses with paracord as well.

When I first came across this marlin spike, I was eager to try it out. As someone with a collection of marlin spikes, and even having made a YouTube video showcasing them, I was excited to add this one to my set. After receiving it, I was so impressed that I decided to order another as a backup and a third to keep with my paracord gear. One of my favorite things to do with these marlin spikes is to polish them using a piece of leather and polishing compound. This process ensures they are as smooth as possible and gives them a fantastic shine. The attention to detail in this marlin spike is outstanding—especially the small slot designed specifically for making the Turk’s Head knot, which prevents it from slipping off. It’s a brilliant touch! Since I ended up getting three, can you guess which one is my favorite? Yep, this one! Each marlin spike is adorned with a different colored Turk’s Head knot that I made. These stand out as the best in my collection. Thank you, Brent, for your innovative design! I’m looking forward to seeing what other great products you come up with next!

Bought the engraved marlinespike for a friend who's getting into sailing, and her new, shiny marlinespike arrived quickly and looks great! Highly recommend this product!

I'm an amateur, but I noticed a few great things and have enjoyed it. The friction with paracord is low, letting it slip through to open knots and expand loops. Still, it doesn't slip in hand. The metal is tough, resisting scratches from metal, and featuring a good weight. The dimensions are great to work with rope and manipulate with one hand. Also, tying the Turk's head knot was pretty satisfying, and it comfortable and a practical stopper. All in all, I'm appreciating this marlinspike more than I expected.

Everything I have ever ordered from #awesomeforsale has been of the highest quality! I have a total of 4 Marlinspikes so that I'm never without one. I especially like the quality of the engraving to personalize it for me.
