Luggage Tag Splice

---

Ok I admit it, I have always been one to run the bitter end of a halyard back through the splice. I know this sounds a bit trivial but here is another way to luggage tag halyard.

1) Line the shackle up with the splice.

2) Pass the splice through the bail on the shackle.

3) Take the open end of the splice and pass the enitre shackle through it.

5) Pull the bitter end of the halyard until the splice is tight.
