same as every other paracord on amazonJan 13, 2011
By Rosc This is the same ROTHCO commercial class 3 paracord being sold elsewhere for much LESS, the same paracord that has MANY complaints about failing well below the rated 500lb test.
This seller's description is deceptive trying to fob this off as if it was the mil-spec paracord, not the cheap commercial stuff. ;<

BEWARE: some good, some BADApr 23, 2011
By willie
"roadie"
bought 100' of red and black...
the pics show ROTHCO, but this is a LIE!
the red product *appears* to be valid paracord... since i'm not jumping out of plane or using this
to repel down a cliff, i don't give a romeo alpha whether or not it is the real thing...
HOWEVER, the black paracord i received was not only not ROTHCO, but is mislabeled JUNK
BEWARE of the seller 'USA Imports,' as you will receive BAD product...
the real insult, besides being lied to by deceptive product pictures by Amazon, is that it is not worth the time to return junk purchased like this...
if this keeps up with Amazon, i'm going shopping elsewhere...

not real paracordApr 09, 2011
By Ryan I got the Coyote Brown 100 foot length "para cord." It looks like para cord but it only has 4 strands of coarse short fiber nylon. I wouldn't trust this to hold 550lb any day. Next time I'll just go to a military surplus store and spend the extra few bucks. It'll work for a rifle sling or something though.

Rather small...Sep 11, 2011
By kkgreg Thought 'paracord' strength would be a higher grade, turned out to be very small cord and not very good for tying anything down - stretches and will not hold very much weight.

Not quality.Sep 29, 2011
By A. Renee I made my boys paracord bracelets months ago with paracord I bought at a local military supply store. The bracelets held up for months and the "inner strands" of that cord were made of a heavy duty yarn. This paracord I bought online from Army Universe had several little white threads for the "inner strands". When I tried to burn 2 colors of cord together they wouldn't adhere. The bracelets kept falling apart with this stuff. The ones I made almost a year ago with "real paracord" are still together with no problems. I'm not convinced this is "real" paracord, the quality just isn't there, at least not for bracelet making when merging 2 colors.
