Survivalist Gift GuideTuesday, November 20, 2018 ParacordParacord is the utility string with endless possibilities. This cord can be used to secure cargo, tie items together, fix broken straps or replace missing cordage. It’s great for assisting with rescues, securing animals, keeping shoes tied and so much more. Each cord is made up of multiple interior strings which are surrounded by a tightly woven nylon sheath. In addition to using the entire utility cord, the strings inside can be removed and used when camping, fishing or in any situation where finer yarn-like string is required. Paracord is extremely useful and versatile, making it a great gift for practically anyone, particularly hikers, campers and general outdoor enthusiasts. The paracord bracelet is woven into a compact piece of safety gear that can be worn every day. When unraveled, the user is left with seven feet of 550 cord. 550 cord has a minimum breaking strength of 550 pounds. This strength cord consists of seven to nine core yarns. Try it together with the paracord dog collar for the perfect outdoor adventure stocking stuffer. Streamlight FlashlightsAnyone can benefit from a good flashlight.
