I'll be coming to Taunton 16-17 October and can splice it back on for you for free if you're not sorted by then. Give me a buzz nearer the time if you want - 07974 353754.

if its kevlar or similar a 4 turn blood knot with the end tucked back through the back loop will hold (most fisherman will show you how it is done )
did 1 on jamese1505's on his 8274 warn winch to tention it we hooked it up to a 7ton dumper (handbreak on and in gear)and it dragged the thing abnout 15 feet knot tightened up nicely and did'nt give out

Splicing is best as all knots weaken the rope by anything upto 50%. Blood Knot & Figure 8 knots are the strongest 80% of original rope strength and bowlines & overhand knots are the weakest. as much as 50% of rope strength can be lost.
