I figured this couldn't be rocket surgery to tie these things, and its not

First one. I think it came out pretty good.



Lots of different ways to make these things. Key chains, lanyards for whatever, zipper pulls, etc.

looks good. is it really for survival, to have a bunch of line at ready and if so how many feet are there? or is it just for decoration. it does a good job of covering your watch tan line, can you make a small one to cover the wedding ring tan line?

They are more of a fad than anything else. However, they are a cool way of storing 550 para cord. The knot stores approx 1 foot of para cord per 1" of knot. So that bracelet there has approx 8' of cord in it. If you ever forgot a drag rope or something it would be nice to have

Here is a key chain I threw together. Not para cord, but just some camo cord. Thats approx 10'of cord right there

I like to wear a knife in a sheath around my neck while in a tree stand. Gonna make a neck lanyard out of this stuff when I order some more para cord.
