"...ankle bracelet..."

I did just that, made one sized to fit at the top of the "combat boots" I normally wear. Can't be seen, lots more paracord...

Well, you brought that up. I just meant that seemed like a lot of time spent to create those fashion statements. NOW WHAT, HUH!?! Nothing like a little face wash with the old Easton gloves eh?

Haha, what else can I make paracord with? Hmmm, how bout a belt. OK I gotta stop

I made a hat band that goes around my boonie hat, that has at least 25 feet of paracord.

The other application that I have found works great is a slightly different knot that gives you the ability to wrap about 10 feet of paracord around a small ferrocerium rod and striker. I also wrapped about 3 feet of snare wire around that before knotting the FOB.

It took me a little looking to find a video on how to tie the knot, but this makes a very handy little EDC item and is the perfect size for a keychain.

Here you go:

I have seen that technique mentioned before. Thing is, if I'm in a situation where I need to scavenge 550 cord, I'd probably need to keep my boots on too.

A rifle sling...

That's hilarious. My new 3-layer system for warmth:
1) Long sleeve athletic shirt
2) Paracord-woven "hoody" sweater
3) Gore-tex shell

And of course, if my feet get cold, I'll put on my paracord beanie.

Better go find myself a few quilting needles!

I decided to give this a try last night, took about 30 minutes (took longer as it was first time) to knock out an 8 inch braid, about 18-20 feet of paracord.

A little too long for a key chain, and I'm just not a bracelet kind of guy, but definitely some potential for other uses.

Um, hatband would work I reckon.
