Review on ๐Ÿชข Ultra-Durable 1000 Foot Black Parachute Cord Paracord: Type III Military Specification 550 by Steven Harper

Revainrating 2 out of 5

NOT Type III Terrible Coil, avoid.

As other reviewers have pointed out, this is NOT a Type III 550 cable, but for the price I'd still give it 3 stars for quality as it's reasonable enough to connect the ends of a dipole HF antenna for amateur radio. However, the coil is complete nonsense. When I took it out of the box, the bottom of the spool fell off, forming a 1,000 foot skein of paracord. Unraveled what I needed to get the job done but threw the rest in the box and probably won't use it in the future. Not worth the hours of my time it would take me to unravel it all. I thought I would save a few bucks buying this paracord instead I ran out almost $50 and I still have to buy a new rope. In the future I will use Dacron ropes of known quality.

Pros
  • Absolutely amazing!
Cons
  • Lots of stuff
