Questions & Answers

I want to know the true meaning of military Is it possible to make paracord with 7 strands and 1 monofilament, 1 copper, and 1 waxed cotton?

Hello Krista, What you are talking about does not exist since True Mil Spec doesn't include monofilament, copper strand, or waxed cotton strand. There are hybrids out there that include these items, but they do not comply with Mil Spec. The Titan company makes a great product you might enjoy. You can find them on Amazon as well. I wish you all the best, A TOUGH COMPANY The Grid

I have some unexpected gifts with my solid cord! I am satisfied with the cord
5/5

It works like I They mailed me a set of instruction cards about how to tie a variety of knots, which is pretty cool! As a surprise bonus, they also sent two PDFs about various Paracord projects.

A product of superior quality! This is amazing! This cord from Tough-N-Tuff is of a very high quality, but I was not surprised with its value I'll be grid! In the last few months, I've acquired some 550 mil-spec bullets I have a local "Spec" cord and when compared with my buddies at Tough-Nose, it can be seen both are not only similar, but superior It is grid-like
5/5

No comparison can be made. There is a Tough-looking one on the left A grid with seven inner braids, three main braids, and a marker strand. The right is an inner braid with 7 2 strands, with no marking strand, thanks to the guys over at Tough-N-Iron. It is always a pleasure to do business with Grid and they are committed to providing you with 100% customer satisfaction. The Tough-Team deserves a great deal of thanks I'll be grid!.

There is a cheap feel to it Several years ago, I purchased paracord from this company called Titan
3/5

They made high quality paracord, but nowadays they only sell survivor cord, which can be used for bracelets but is hard to manipulate. My company is so good, so I tried them. Rope is one of the uses for it. I'm kind of bummed out because the reviews were good, but I suppose it will work fine. It cuts with ease, so not sure if it will hold up over time. My preferred option is to return the item, but I've already cut 9ft off for testing. In general, I am not very pleased with this product. It has the same feeling of quality as the paracord planet, which I also don't find satisfactory. My opinion is only based on matters pertaining to my needs for paracord. I need some high-quality rope to accompany my paracord. UPDATE

As of 10/18/20, I received an email from someone at the company stating that they may still be able to refund me. Furthermore, it was said that they would supply me with a sample of their 750 cord based on my comments. Despite my reply, I have not heard back from them for more than a week. Taking the time to reach out to me was very kind of them. As soon as my experience is finished, I will update this review.

We have good news to share with you The bad news is that it's not the best quality paracord
5/5

It's hard for me to describe how great ToughGrid 750 is. The 550 paracord used here is very high quality. There are a few brands I've tried, but Tough-C is my favorite Griddle is by far the best. I've had other brands spill It's a conundrum that I have used their 770 paracord for a couple of years and that I have become addicted About 19 billion things can be done with paracord, according to me It is even my habit to keep with me a short length of cord so that I can practice knot tying whenever I need. This grid is incredibly tough, and has great abrasion resistance, and is a net that holds knots like no other. The 550 would likely have an equal level of durability, although it would have a slightly less strong I would like to warn Be prepared to be spoiled by anything less if you try this stuff.

It never occurred to me that paracord could have this quality! Getting home and finding the quality is not what you hoped for after purchasing paracord at a store is the worst thing that can happen
5/5

When ordering from this company, this will not be the case. Paracord provides the best quality, combines with the best customer service, and creates a company that will last for a long time. I use it for so many things, yet I can't decide on just a few. It is by far the best I have ever used, and I have tried a lot of brands. Since the stuff is that good, I did not have to get paid for this review. My experience with the company today has prompted me to edit this review to reflect what I learned.
The prices are great and I will never purchase paracord from another company. We go the extra mile for our customers, and you won't find any other companies that do the same. It is far from enough to give them five stars, so I've given them ten. The people behind this company and the product they offer are both exceptional.

550 paracord
5/5

This is the real thing. A TOUGH COMPANY On the left you will find the GRID. Located at the top of the page is Paracord Planet. The following is a visual representation of Grid consists of 7 inner strands, each of which has 3 smaller, intertwined strands, and each is military-grade. Paracord Planet also has 7 strands, but with only 2 smaller, interlocked strands per strand, unlike spec cord. Paracord Planet also has 2 smaller strands than spec cord, and an additional strand. NOTE DO NOT USE We have the PARACORD SPEC 550! There's a grid. When it comes to home crafts and paracord projects, none of this is relevant at all. TOUGH-O is the better choice for 550 lb Paracords if you plan to use it for combat. Between the two, there is only one option, GRID.
If I were to compare these two bags, they don't quite have coyote brown color to them, but they're My feeling is that I am tough- The GRID comes off as more gold-toned The Paracord planet is more muted, while the Thrill Planet is more vibrant. As it changes in different lighting, it's impossible to pin down whether one is "better" in terms of color. I find it difficult to judge. Whatever the case may be, I vote for GRID in this case! In addition, the Paracord Planet arrived I will return the item for the money, but not the item itself.

Surprised in a good way
5/5

It arrived yesterday that I had ordered the 1k ft spool of green thread. My schedule was packed, so I did not have much time to work on I cut a small piece off of the cord this morning to see how I was going to behave with it. I was surprised at what I found. There was only one slight bend on the spool end, but overall, the reel was in excellent Since there was no picture of a cut piece of cord in the advertisement when I bought the spool, I was skeptical about the legitimacy of the product and its advertising because I have been straight lied to about it in the past. As soon as I started pulling at the sheathing it held together pretty good. I was most eager to see its content. In all, there were eight strands, with seven white and one identifying color. As of yet, I have not made anything from this, but I am looking forward to it.
