Yeah it works well sometimes you have to dress the knot but the friction cord might be an inch or so too long, it's cheap as well about £1.50 a meter

Yeah...knut knot...:-)..I use the black and green rope 8mm from jonsies with the above knot. That is all

That's Sirius.

Lovely cord. Supple and great for hitches. Only issue is it glazes fast, but it's 4x cheaper than Armor Prus (which in my experience is the only other hitch cord worth buying).

 

Armor Prus will last months. Cheap as Sirius in the long run.

Unfortunately it's been out of stock from honeys for months they do have some thing simular that's not on there web site that I would rate though.

Personally I would not waste time on any other cord than armour prus , you can burn out Sirius in one climb I have found.
