Default Brummel, or stitch

Brummel-ing is just a way of locking the splice against low-load (flogging) pull-out. The Samson instruction substitutes stitching, which is fine. The mobius brummel would be of no use if you are splicing through rings, and the standard brummel could be used for the first splice through the first ring. It's just a little quicker than stitching, so somewhat preferable. All three methods still require the tapered bury to achieve full strength.

Nuthin wrong with a cow-hitch, except a slight aesthetic difference. A bit stronger than splicing straight around the ring, since the loads are divided into the two parts going around the ring, I'm told. And easier to remodel if the design/hardware selection needs "perfecting".
