PSKOOK 550 Paracord Lanyard Parachute Cord with Flaxed Tinder Cord PE Fishing Line Cotton Thread Outdoor Commercial Grade Braided Rope

It was the perfect colour. I loved the way it has 5 in 1 uses. I cut about 30cm off to test it and used the rest to make lanyards, belts, straps,bracelets ,etc...I found it a little difficult to remove the 1st thread,but after that the rest of the came out easily enough. And the all worked as described. Was happy that the paracord was still strong enough after removing all the other cores. So it's stronger with all the cores but is only 550 cord without survival core removed. Great addition to any outdoors ,camping and survival use nice selling point when making bracelets and lanyards like I do. 👍

Item arrived exactly as described, pre-wound on the spool.2 reviews here - one for the paracord, and one for the spool.Paracord - 5 stars.Very strong 7 x triple strand 550 paracord, with the useful addition of cotton for sewing, a fishing line and tinder, all inside. This makes it incredibly useful to any camper/survivalist. I would not buy paracord now without these additional internals, because, well, why would you? It’s the same, but better. Great to have these additional elements as back up. They’re easy to pull out by the way, and I have tested the tinder and it works a-ok with a ferro rod.Someone has left a review saying that the end of the cord explodes in to a frayed mess after it’s cut. Well, yes it kind of does, but that’s to allow you to easily pull out the cotton, fishing line or tinder if you need it. This is by design, it’s supposed to do that!What you’re supposed to do, if you have a brain, is seal it with a flame after you cut it. It works as it should. It’s not complicated and not difficult to do at all! Honestly, how do these people get by in life..,Anyway, on to the spool - 3 starsIt’s ok, sure, handy I guess, and it does keep the cord neatly wrapped. There’s lots of slots for the cord to rest so it doesn’t come undone. And the removable razor is very useful, makes cutting the cord a breeze.But, as we’ve established, you need to seal the cord with a flame after you cut it, so why isn’t there a holder for a lighter? Instead, there’s this open handle-type side supposedly for storing “stuff”. Sorry, but this is useless, it doesn’t hold anything, and it’s more like a handle for tiny fingers.What they should have done, is added a standard sized holder for a lighter, like a bic or a clipper. That way, you have the blade for cutting, and the lighter for sealing, all together with the spool.Summary - 4 starsGreat paracord, with a good (but under-utilised) spool.My advice - buy the paracord on its own (pay the same price to get double the length that comes with the spool).And if you find that you do want a spool, buy one separately that comes with a slot to hold a lighter.

When it comes to paracord it pays not to compromise as the stuff beloved by outdoors people can literally save your life, then came the fire cord version with one of the inner strands being a waxed tinder thread, then Titan made survivor cord with tinder thread, brass wire and monofilament fishing line, which was the ultimate evolution of 550, this sits nicely between the Titan and regular. The tinder thread lights easily from a ferro rod, and the braided fishing line is strong (although if I’m honest mono would be considerably more useful as the standard inner cord stripped back to one of the three ply would do just as good a job) but I’m still giving it 5 stars because it is a quality product.

Excellent.

Great product and sturdy for sure. Inner bits are great to have for survival kit or emergency. Only criticism was that the cord twists up and tangles itself quite easily to keep it strapped! Havent used much of the inners / fishing line but the waxed jute twine lights with a firesteel just fine!

I bought it to make laces out of it, which I have done with heat shrink plastic for the ends.I found it does fray a fair bit when cut, but you can burn seal it.

Paracord with a tinder line and fishing line in the core (colour coded red for the tinder and yellow for the fishing line), cuts clean if you use a sharp knife, melts and seals as you'd expect!The Hank comes tidy with a velcro wrap and in a plastic bag so it's clean and tidy when it arrives. Colours exactly as advertised, and goes perfectly with my Gshock!(Pls don't judge the workmanship, I fabricobbled the strap during lunch without any real tools! :D )

I should have read some reviews on this before I purchased. Good cord but a pain in the arse to seal the ends when cut, frays like a pealed cheese string!
