I would tend to agree with Drew, 10mm is really for the big US lines 13mm+
For the likes or Blaze (MM) and the Euro lines 11-MM the MM is best in the Amour Pris con fig. It tend to bit well enough but not too much.
I also like the tapering of the cover and letting it milk down with the core when doing a type II splice. I think this gives it a good finish. You should always lock stitch your splice as well.
Have fun but remember that this splice is the most critical, if it lets go you are in all sorts of trouble so unless you are confident in your splice, don't climb on it.
