About this Product
The Marlin Spike is a tool used in marine ropework, sometimes called a fid. Shaped in the form of a metal cone tapered to a point, they aid in such tasks as unlaying rope for splicing, untying knots, drawing marline tight using a marlinspike hitch, and as a toggle joining ropes under tension in a belaying pin splice. Ever have really tight knot that is nearly impossible to untie by hand? Employ one of these and get it loose in no time!
