I always understood (perhaps wrongly) that tree surgeons etc used the same ropes as rock climbers. I have never heard of specialised tree-climbing ropes. I'm wondering if the question really relates to dynamic as opposed to static climbing ropes??
A static rope is certainly cheaper than a dynamic one, so I'm assuming this is what the OP is actually referring to??
Edit:
Nope, I was wrong. A little googling tells me that most arborist rope is polyester and a lot of it is braided rather than kernmantel construction. I've learned something new for the day.
