Gentleman of Fortune Posted September 15, 2005 Posted September 15, 2005 I usually don't like to post e-bay links but this is interesting if it proves to be actual hemp rope. Sissal, Jute, and Hemp can all look the same from an ebay photo! EDIT: Upon further inspection... I am not sure that I think this is Hemp rope. A lot of folks selling really don't know the difference and the way the ends are fraying makes me think that its sissal/jute. I could be wrong but.... 175 Feet of Hemp Rope Come aboard my pirate re-enacting site http://www.gentlemenoffortune.com/ Where you will find lots of information on building your authentic Pirate Impression!

kass Posted September 26, 2005 Posted September 26, 2005 It's hard to tell from a picture, Greg. I could tell you if it were hemp rather than jute or sisal if I could touch it or smell it. But photos are tough. Hemp rope isn't impossible to get over here, though. If you really want some, I could probably track it down for you. Kass Building an Empire... one prickety stitch at a time!
