Great product
This was perfect for what I needed. I bought 2 other aluminum fid's but both of them were to small for my rope. This was much better price and fit rope. The only bad thing is it would not slide through the rope as well as the aluminum ones. But I would recommend this over and over.

Not too bad.
They were great for the price, only thing is was that the 1/4 inch one was very difficult to fit 1/4 inch amsteel into it and when sizing up to use the 3/8ths, it was very difficult to run it down the middle of the amsteel. With some finagling I was able to muscle it in and got the job done.

Mariners splicing Fids
These make splicing rope easy, the three sizes should be kept on every sailboat, made out of durable aBS plastic good buy for the money. They come in three of the most common sizes for working on the most common thicknesses of rope aboard yachts. Yeah the thickness was just right until they were stolen. Going to have to buy some more.

Horrible for Dyneema! But it will work.
DO NOT USE FOR DYNEEMA! It isn’t possible to bury the rope. Even after cleaning off all the plastic burrs and sanding and slight heating to get rid of the scratches it’s straight trash! Other than Dyneema this tool will get the job done. It is considerably cheaper than aluminum. If you are looking for cheap and useable, this is for you. If you are looking for a more reliable long term solution, go with Aluminum.

Great Winch Line Repair Tool
This tool made splicing a broken nylon winch line a snap. This is a must for your SxS.

Product poorly made
I purchased these fids to make some aider's for my climbing sticks, they will not transition thought the rope due to how rough they are. There is a ridges that runs the entire length of the fid and a hole on the bottom that gets caught on every fiber of the amsteel when attempting to hide the berry. If your looking to do some rope splicing I would recommend aluminum. I would have returned them but i am past my window to do so.

Quality product
These fids are very easy to use and a great size. Very economically priced, it doesn't take an arm and a leg to replace it if lost or misplaced.
