I think you got it urbansix. Clevis refers to the pin, but the entire thing is called a shackle. Your 4th reference was the best description. I think the other sources mistakenly left off the shackle description. They would have been correct by calling it a straight pin clevis shackle. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> Ahh, talking about things that don't matter.

Not sure if I want to wear a bracelet in the event I need just 15 feet of cord. I have that much on my hiking staff for emergency and also carry 20' in my pack.
BTW does it come in colors? My 13 year old daughter might like one in red or pink. She would think it's cool. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />
