MARLING SPIKE ( original spelling ) soon mispronounced and misspelled to MARLINE SPIKE / MARLINESPIKE
and even worse MARLINSPIKE
As lack of education always win now the proper MARLING SPIKE is all but forgotten .
verb : to marl ( merliner en français )
marling spike : iron 'fid' ; un épissoir en français
marline or mar-line( du merlin en français et aussi luzin ou luzin) == yarn
Two days ago, a topic was entered in Friend-page-17 about Stefanos FANIDIS new
SPIKES
As a friendly gesture to the world of knot-tying Stefanos was persuaded to accept "orders".
Materials used: [open quote] a high quality stainless steel and an industry composite material called ertalon. [end quote]
Stefanos does not want to take advantage of any knot-tyer while at the same time not losing money from the cost of high end material and use of a computer numerical controlled milling machine or metal lathe so his intent is to make the pricing of his spikes more affordable to everyone than what is usualy seen on the Net.
Expect a pricing at 40 euros (plus shipping charges at cost) but you will have to contact him directly, I am just advertising and am no part of the ordering/selling process)
Stefanos will communicate his PAYPAL account himself.
Stefanos seller's identity on EBAY is FANIDIS : exemple
