Splicer - Knot Ninjas of Troop 376

Short Splice	The short splice is most often used to join two sections of rope of the same size.
While not often used the long splice is smooth. Unlay six times the circumference of the rope. Marry the strands as in the short splice and hold them together. Unlay 1A and fill its place with 2A until only enough remains for the final hitch. Trim 1A to same length and hitch the two with an overhand, right to left. Repeat with 2A and 2B. 1C and 2C are tied in the middle with the same hitch.	Long Splice
\| End Splice	The end or back splice is an alternative to whipping. Begin with a crown knot and tuck the ends along the standing part as in a short splice.
Also called the side splice when used to splice one rope to another. It is woven “one over, one under” by twisting the rope to loosen strands.
