KNUCKL Rope Gripper

The KNUCKL Rope Gripper (Ferno Product Code: VAH-KNUCKL) is a compact, ergonomically designed rope gripping device that significantly improves grip and control when handling rope, while reducing hand fatigue. Designed to assist users during lifting, hauling, or holding rope, the KNUCKL allows effective rope control using a fraction of the normal effort.

Weighing approximately 30 grams, the KNUCKL Rope Gripper fits comfortably in the hand and works equally well for left- and right-handed users, with or without gloves. Its clear-style V groove is non-aggressive and gentle on rope, helping to prevent unnecessary wear during use.

Manufactured for durability, the KNUCKL does not corrode, is long-lasting, and offers a cost-effective solution for improving rope handling across a wide range of industries, including Fire and Rescue, Emergency Response, Mining, Arboriculture, Rope Access, Theatre, and Event Rigging.

NOTE: The KNUCKL fits any size hand.

Placing the KNUCKL finger grip between the index and middle finger provides maximum grip as the rope-gripping cleat is positioned over the index finger. Depending on the size of their hand, some users may find it more comfortable with the finger grip between the middle and fourth (ring) finger. There is no right or wrong way.
