These soft shackles are good. They are much better than the last set I got. These ones are back spliced where the knot is so should hold through anything. My other set just had the tag end heat-shrunk down for cosmetics but this looks much nicer. These are also a little lower in price than most others but still have good quality. If you want a good set of shackles that aren't heavy or clanging around in your toolbox, these will do you well.
