Splicing Secrets: Locking Eye Splice in Spectwelve - SPECIAL TECHNIQUE

Would it not be better to pass the working end through the standing part to make your eye, then put the twisted hole into the working end and then pass the eye through the twisted hole? this would untwist the hole as the eye goes through and make a locking brummel, i think this is called a mcdonald brummel.

Works great until you want to actually splice a block onto the end, then you are left with a cow hitch which looks crap. If you need to cow hitch the block on then why not just tie it on in the first place!?

Would this work for the 1/8" 12-strand Amsteel-Blue as well?
