🔍 Key Concepts

• Short splice vs. long splice – how each affects line diameter and strength • Relative strength of splices compared to knots • Whether a short splice is considered a temporary or permanent method of joining lines

💭 Think About

• Think about what physically happens when you tuck the strands of two lines together in a short splice – does that make the joined area bigger or smaller in diameter? • Compare how much strength is usually lost in a knot versus a properly made splice. Which one is generally closer to the original line strength? • Ask yourself: Is a short splice something you would choose if you needed to undo it quickly, or is it more of a permanent connection?

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify whether a short splice typically increases, decreases, or maintains the line’s diameter where the splice is made • Recall if a short splice is known for being stronger or weaker than most knots used to join two lines • Decide if a short splice is generally taught and used as a permanent or temporary way to join two lines
