Thank you for no headbanger rock anthem intros and "hiya, youtubers" bullshit and just providing 8 minutes of everything needed to know about paracord!

Great demo and intel about paracord. Someone told me that mil spec was 7 strands... Could've been wrong though. Thanks for sharing!

Yes milspec para cord has no less than 7 inner strands of 3 yarns

Ahh lovely paracord. I never realised it was so stretchy. Gonna keep carying it. Especially since I see how its good for tarps with a truckers hitch as there is some give I.e no need for spring attachments. Nice one! Thanks Bros.

Would like to see a similar vid on bank line as you mentioned at the end of your video. Would also like to see something on the difference sizes 18 vs 36 etc. Thanks again, I always look forward to your new posts.

Great info, thanks!

Cheers Mate! Do make clip with the military grade Parracord please. I believe that they have included another type of strand to it too. Cheers

cool vid, short and informative

Great vid! Please definitely do the video on the fast rope design. I'd love to see how you do that.

MilSpec Cord is 7 strand

I cant seem to find anywhere that ships paracord for me to use here in portugal either it dosen't ship or shipping is very expensive got any ideas?

Are you using the inner strands in the demo of it holding your weight?

Great!

Let's see how you get the internal strands out......

the mil spec is actually 7 inner strands

Low stretch cordage is better for tarps IMHO something like lashit or dyneema.

i thought i loved this channel already and then i found out you say turtles cause ninja turtles and now i love it even more A LITTLE TOO, RAPH

next time you pick up 550, make sure you get mil-spec type III.

Sorry, Sergej. It's slang. When someone says that, pertaining to their weight, it means 100. -Krik

BlackOwlOutdoors I also replaced some old, worn out boot laces with paracord. I found out pretty quickly that the way I'd been tying them wasn't going to work now, so I've simply taken to double-knotting when I lace up my boots. I feel like I'm in first grade all over again, but it works. Thanks Krik & Stony for your outstanding videos. I was up your way recently when my family headed out to Hershey Park for the day. (I'm thinking you're not too far from there from what I've gathered from your website and other videos).

+Black Owl Outdoors I use a cord lock sometimes.

It's called 550 Paracord because it can hold 550lb. It contains 7 strands of inner core. The inner core consists of 6 nylon cords, and they have 3 twined strands making them. There is also the 7th cord which is a cord consisting of 2 black nylon and 1 strand of fishing cord. No need to watch this video. Oh and also, fake paracord mate. If it frays when you cut it open it means it's low quality and is fake. And if the paracord was "meant" to stretch it would snap and not be able to carry 550 Paracord.

Im sorry to tell you but the paracord you have in your hands is fake
