D-Splicer - One-Piece Splicing Needles for 2-8 mm Line

D-Splicer is a range of specialized rope splicing needles for sailors and riggers. They are specifically designed for use with modern synthetic fibers and rope constructions, in particularly small line sizes where conventional fids and splicing needles don't work.
Individual D-splicer needles are sold as a single needle with a permanently fixed loop-style handle (the needle part cannot be removed nor replaced).

The D-Splicer is also sold as a kit - with a single handle and interchangeable needles. The needles in the kit are different from the individual needles. See Related Products, below.
