PSKOOK Paracord Survival Cord with Waxed Tinder Fishing Line Cotton Thread Outdoor Commercial Grade Braided Fire Parachute Cord Ropes

I have not done a test on the strength however I have tested the internals that make up the cord and they all work as they should, even when saturated the wax coated wick works well. Recommended.

It’s very cord like !

Of all the Para cords I have ordered from here, this is definitely the highest quality! It’s stronger, better textured, and more “filled in” so to speak, you can genuinely just feel the quality difference between this and similar diameter paracords.As a nice little bonus it has a sheen to it, so when you have this cord under a light, it looks as though it is a shiny red material, making the pattern stand out a lot more.I do like the slow burn thread that runs through this, as it definitely works the way it should, the one thing I will say though, it’s more difficult to seal the ends of the cord like you would with others, and that’s also down to the slow burn thread. It doesn’t melt away as easily as the rest of the cord, so you find yourself having to push down against the thread as well as the rest of the cord when sealing, and sometimes end up with a more ashy finish at the end of your sealed cord.Other than 3 feet that I used of the end of this cord straight out of the pack for a lanyard for my EDC, I used the remaining 97ft of cord to make a dog-lead for our GSD, and it is holding up perfect!! The dog likes to chew a lot, and destroyed her last lead, but this is holding up great, and you wouldn’t know she had touched it.I have to give 5 stars purely down to those factors, quality, strength, and durability, and that’s essentially what I look for in a good paracord.I highly recommend to anyone looking to make something a little tougher than their other paracord creations, and to anyone looking to get something with a great finish to it as well.

Braided line ties onto hooks a treat, cotton thread is easy to thread into a needle and the tinder cord will spark up from just the insert from a clipper so a ferro rod or empty zippo would have no trouble, other than that the quality is as you would expect from any other 550 cord. Going straight into my camping bag ready for my next outing.

Secret agent paracord. Good quality, would recommend.

Sometimes you discover an idea that makes you wonder why it's not the default standard for that product. This paracord is one of those products. Normally, if I'm camping or walking off track, I'd take my leatherman with me in its pouch with a Lenser P2, the tool and ferro rod. To date, the best kindling I've found for an emergency fire that lights well with the ferro rod is cotton wool. The waxed tinder in this paracord is better.Cut a short length of the cord and pull the waxed tinder thread free. Place it on a flattish surface and use the blade to scrap off the wax and fluff the thread. Place this with the rest of the kindling and use the end of the rod to hold it down. Strike the rod (I find a saw blade works better) towards the thread and it will light and burn long enough for the rest of kindling to catch.I'll keep this stuff in my walking pack for camping / days out but I've also removed the P2's strap and replaced it with a length of cord making the pouch an ideal all-in-one carry in case an off track walk takes a turn for the worse.

Good paracord as expected

There is a lot to like with the paracord; It looks and feels like regular paracord and at just under £12 for 100ft isn't silly expensive the flexibility also means its just as easy to work with. I was concerned that the fire starting cord and fishing line would be difficult to remove from the rest resulting in the whole thing coming apart and making the actual cord useless but this isn't the case with both sliding out easily leaving the remaining strands in the casing.The fire starting cord burns reasonably well and should be a good light weight option if you're ever in that much difficulty.The fero rod on the necklace is very short but still manages to throw a decent amount of sparks when struck with a knife blade but I couldn't get anywhere with the striker attached to it, this might be more to do with my technique though than any issues with the striker.Haven't had chance to use the fishing line properly yet but when I compared it to some old line I've got in the shed it seems to have a decent enough breaking strength and is fine enough that it would be difficult to see in the water or set up as a snare.All in all its a pretty good well made product that does what it says on the tin.
