Bought 300′ so far…..indispensable. Keep some in wife’s car, truck, work truck, make lanyards outta it….tie down ANYTHING….use as boot laces(laces that will never break)…hang antennas from trees…or to tease the cats with……love this stuff….and it’s the real deal…not some Chinese ripoff stuff.

Strong and light, I turned my cord into dog leashes so I can walk all (9) of my dogs at once. Works great no fraying, little bit of stretch and like I said works great for the purpose I bought it for. Would not hesitate to buy another if needed.

The title says it all. Though it appears to be quality paracord, it broke under a 290lb load, far less than 550lb breaking strength this stuff is supposed to have. The test I conducted was a single strand looped over a shop rafter and tied into a loop at the bottom. I hung a swing apparatus from the loop and gently started resting my weight on the swing. I almost got my full weight on it, but it snapped in the middle of the strand (not anywhere near the knots I had tied). No bouncing, swinging, etc. I just gently started resting more of my weight on the swing and snapped the paracord. Good thing I’ve got a padded bum.

The price was excellent. I had ordered several 100 ft lengths. All but one of them was a seven strand core. The one was only a six strand core. That could be a fluke, but the buyer needs to know there is that chance. Even six is fine for me, and it is not worth the price to find a dealer to guarantee seven strands.

These are the type that were issued to all military aircrew. They fit perfectly, provide best UV/glare protection, and I get complements on them all the time.
