This type of nylon rope stands out because it is light, elastic and very resistant. It is also known for the different uses that can be made of it. It has always been used for parachuting and in the military field during the Second World War. Later, its use became more popular, especially due to its great practicality, solidity and versatility.

It is used for various outdoor activities. The paracord is most often used as a cord bracelet, survival bracelet, emergency bracelet by survivalists, hikers and those who practice outdoor activities. Wearing a paracord on your wrist allows you to have a very solid and multifunctional rope at hand in case of need in an emergency situation. The paracord is easy to carry due to its extremely light weight. In the survival course, the survivor learns through a survival guide, the different types of ropes, knots and use of strands necessary for survival.

The paracord is very practical thanks to the strings that compose it. It’s the perfect survival material for adventurers. The fibers that compose it can be used in several situations: for sewing or weaving in order to mend equipment (a broken strap), for suturing, for fishing thanks to its threads that can be used as fishing threads, for attaching a backpack to vehicle supports, and even for hiding a vehicle because a quality paracord can support the load of the branches, thanks to its ultimate resistance. For applications requiring a thinner or less elastic rope, such as shoe laces, people often remove the wire strand and use only the nylon sheath. The ends of the cord can be melted and/or curled to prevent it from fraying. Some models, such as the 98 feet (30m) flammable paracord, allow to start a fire even in very difficult conditions.

Beyond its utilitarian functions, the paracord can be used for making and creating jewelry and accessories through weaving, braiding. The cord can be knotted or braided (braided nylon) to make bracelets, pendants, earrings, necklaces, straps, belts, key rings and other DIY and creative hobby supplies. Sometimes, their knots can be easily untied and used in a survival situation. It thus becomes an easy to hook element and an accessory that you can always have with you, around the wrist, for example.
