As seen in Sailors' Knots & Splices DVD
The patented Fid-O© splicing tool is a device for splicing twisted fiber line (manila, nylon, etc.) that resembles a 'sailmaker's fid' made of Cycolac® ABS plastic. Its tapered end has a special spade point that makes it easier to separate strands of line without tearing the individual fibers. The other end features a removable hollow handle that holds the strands of line open. Line ends to be spliced are inserted through the handle, which is then removed, making it easy to splice even the stiffest line.
