Product Description
The product featured here is the 1000 foot spool of black parachute cord, direct from the manufacturer. This is the exact type of cord that is sold to the US Military for non-critical missions, where reliability is a must. The paracord advertised here is not a cheap imitation, it is the real thing!
Because individual strands of 550 paracord can be easily removed and combined into your own configurations, this small rope can be put to a wide variety of survival uses. As a general purpose utility cord 550 can be used for:
Ridgelines for Tarps
Securing Equipment
Shoelaces
Hanging Food from Bears
Vehicle Tie Downs
Sewing Fabric
Repairing Equipment
Making a Fire Bow
Fishing Line
Paracord String for a Bow
Making a Shelter
Fish Gill Nets
Fishing Line
Animal Snares
Clothes Lines
Paracord Lanyards
Anchor Line
Binding
Twine
Animal Restraints
Tooth Floss
Splints
Tourniquet
Paracord Braiding
Other Paracord Crafts
From seting up a tarp to paracord braiding, no survival kit is complete without a long hank of paracord. This strong cordage is the survival experts friend.

Great Paracord October 4, 2009

I purchased this paracord to use in my business of making Firestarters/Firesteels. I use the paracord to make lanyards for the handles, (and it works great). I got a very good deal as I had a couple of rebate cards and along with that the paracord qualified for free shipping as well. To sum it up it was a deal I couldn't pass up and I have no regrets. The paracord is of top quality, nothing cheap about it what-so-ever. It meets the military specifications easily, has the black out side sheath with 7 inner strands. It is perfect for so many different things, (basically whatever you can think of). Considering I got 1,000 feet, it will last me for a very long time. If you're looking to buy paracord, you can't go wrong purchasing from this seller as the product is genuine. With it qualifying for free shipping, that's another bonus as far as I'm concerned. I wouldn't hesitate to buy this paracord again.

This product was exactly as advertised. No fake 550 cord here. Seven inner strands, tightly wound. I would highly recommend this item.
This Paracord is the RIGHT STUFF.. November 3, 2009

As a retired military guy, I've used paracord much of my life. Well, just the past 45 years.. This appears to be the right stuff and has thousands of uses around the home, camp, hunting, and you name it.. Good price.. Arrived quickly. I bought the black and may also get a roll of the OD and white. If you need paracord, this is a pretty good deal..
It's Paracord! December 28, 2009

As the title says, it's paracord. Just like other Mil-Spec paracord. Durable, hundreds of uses, and at a great price. The 1000ft roll is a great economical way to get it, is high quality cord, and will serve many purposes.
It's hard to review this paracord any higher than others, but the cost / length combo make this a great deal, and it seems to comply with all standard specs. Why wouldn't you want 1000ft of it? :)
One thing I can say is that the spool is actually a bit smaller than expected, which is a good thing, and shipped quickly and in good shape. 5 stars.
Parachute Cord Review December 28, 2009

I purchased a spool of parachute cord 2 years ago that is similar to the spool I recently purchased. The cord in the first spool was nearly indestructible. I used for many different situations and it never failed. It does not breakdown or mildew when left wet for weeks. It will not breakdown when left out in the sun for months or even years. It has a very high strength to weight ratio. A plus is that if strained to its breaking point it will fray before breaking and not simply snap. Having said that, I never used it to hold down anything larger than what can fit in the back of a full size pick-up. Wile I did not purchase this spool from the same vendor, I am expecting the same performance from this spool.
