Stainless steel Marlinspike. Used for working ropes and knots. 

Comes untied. Tie your own Turk's Head with the included 10' of paracord (Color of included paracord may vary). 

 

If "TIE THE TURK'S HEAD KNOT FOR ME" is selected, your marlinspike will ship with the Turk's head knot tied, with the ends secured with cyanoacrylate glue. This will prevent the Turk's head from coming undone under heavy use. You will still receive 10' of cord with your order. 

 

Approximate dimensions: 1/2" x 6/1/4" (13mm x 159mm)

Weight: 3.6 oz

If you add Paramax, leave your color choice in the comment on checkout.

    Exactly as expected: Awesome!

    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!

    High Quality, and Useful

    Posted by Eric on Aug 8th 2024

    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.

    Marlinspike

    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.

    Marlinspike

    It’s really nice. Perfect size and weight. Has just the right point. About ball point pen size. Pokey enough but not sharp. Had the Turks Head tied on. Totally worth it.

    Marlinspike

    Posted by Nathan Claytor on Aug 2nd 2024

    Great addition to the rigging arsenal, I enjoy boating, both power and sail and also do some jungle hammock camping. This Marlinspike is both affordable and well made and is an essential piece of equipment for learning knots. The line that comes with the order is a nice touch and allowed me to immediately install the Turks Head. Your video tutorials are very easy to follow. Currently I have been unable to find a reasonably priced piece like this, a very good value. I will be purchasing more. Thank you!

    Fantastic offering for an attractive and utilitarian tool for knotting and ropework. The custom engraving is a wonderful touch and I have already been using it on some splicings ?

    1/2" Marlinspike

    This is a well-made piece of steel. The Turk's head is tightly made. It will give me a lifetime of use.

    Good tool.

    Posted by Don Powers on Jun 7th 2024

    Good metal. Effective taper 3" long. The handle is 2 1/2" long. You can nest the Turk's head between your 3rd and 4th finger. Works well with your paracord and other ropes to 3/8" diameter. Bigger ropes, you probably want a longer tool. Tool diameter is 1/2".
