1/2" marlin spike
This thing is super solid. I've been wanting a nice heavy marlin spike for a while because all the ones that come from Amazon are crappy feeling aluminum and have odd shapes. This is a classic and feels good in the hand.

Outstanding product
This marlinspike and its sheath are outstanding products. I wasn't quite sure what to expect, but these are top-quality tools. I got both with engraving and the engraving is great, too.

If you want quality, look no further. As a "tool guy" I can feel the quality of this beautiful tool. The packaging for everything was of high quality. Highly recommended.

Marlin Spike
I bought two marlin spikes. One for my son and one for myself. We are both very pleased with the quality, feel, looks and function. They did have a slight scratch on them but definitely not a deal breaker. Also, I regret not requesting the engraving.

Invaluable on land or at sea
Despite an invaluable lesson on patient tenacity of knot undoing from Quechuan weaver, Nilda CallaƱaupa who used her bare nails at a Textile Arts Council workshop with Ed Franquemont in the 90's, I am grateful for this unique tool from a wholly different domain. The Awesome for Sale 1/2" Marlinspike proved invaluable when paired with 3x magnifying readers, saving my dear wife's knitting by undoing a tangled mess of light sport weight 8 ply. The smooth metal point deftly teased apart delicate wool strands solving the puzzled mess and regained ply alignment. Should I ever return to back strap weaving, it would make for superlative weaving pick. Not just functional, the tool is a thing of beauty with its optional laser engraving and Turk's Head knot accompaniment. It is a treasured keepsake from that cool First Class Amateur channel https://www.youtube.com/@First_Class_Amateur which serves as an education repository of practical knotting used in everyday life. What a wonderful lifelong hobby. Do yourself a favor, get your Awesome for Sale Marlinspike today!

1/2" Marlin Spike
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
