Review on 🧵 Samson Rope Splicing Kit (Including 1/4-Inch and 1/2-Inch Fids) by Joe Calabro

There are many guides on You Tube for splicing double braid line. They all feature fittings with a much longer hollow section for a more secure core or cap attachment. The hollow area on them is so short it's almost useless. I have to glue a long piece of masking tape to attach the cord to the lining, which makes sliding the lining even more difficult. The pointed end of the lining should also be more pointed. The push rod is too long and too weak. I bent it during one of my attempts to push it. I was expecting more from Samson but as other kits are more expensive I think this proves you get what you pay for although this kit wasn't cheap for what it is. Overall dissatisfied with the purchase.
