I think if you will contact Halcyon you will find that they will fix the problem to your satisfaction. I have found Halcyon to be a company that no only provides "Do It Right" gear but also does business the same way. I presume you have not contacted them or there would have been no need for this note.....

When I lightly tugged on the ends of the rope, the knot fell apart in my hands allowing the bolt clip to fall off. Both of the kits I got are like this. It seems as though something better than this should be done. Halcyon claims this is the exact same gear the WKPP uses. Am I missing something or did I get a bad batch. Please see attached picture. I also noticed the short length of the rope in the vicinity of the knot does not lend itself to tying a better knot. thanks, John Robinson
