This Lanyard had some specific requirements, it had to have about 12' of paracord (this one has right at 10'), had to be adjustable, needed to have a way to keep tension on the wrist, needed to fit in a knife lanyard hole that was barely big enough for a single strand of paracord. They will be testing this lanyard in the coming weeks to see if there are any changes they would like to see before the design is finalized This is what we came up with for them. Feedback is welcome as always. If you would like one similar to this one, let me know. This specific design will only be available to this client and their customers, for short time.

DEMONSTRATION: Survival Paracord Belt Prototype
DEMONSTRATION: Survival Paracord Belt Prototype Video Clips. Duration : 4.35 Mins.
Parachute cord (also paracord or 550 cord) is a lightweight nylon kernmantle rope originally used in the suspension lines of US parachutes during World War II. Once in the field, paratroopers found this cord useful for many other tasks. It is now used as a general purpose utility cord by both military personnel and civilians. This versatile cord was even used by astronauts during STS-82, the second Space Shuttle mission to repair the Hubble Space Telescope. The braided sheath has a high number of interwoven strands for its size, giving it a relatively smooth texture. The all-nylon construction makes paracord fairly elastic; depending on the application this can be either an asset or a liability. Despite the historic association of paracord with Airborne units, virtually all US units have access to the cord. It is used in almost any situation where light cordage is needed. Typical uses include attaching equipment to harnesses, as dummy cords to avoid losing small or important items, tying rucksacks to vehicle racks, securing camouflage nets to trees or vehicles, and so forth. When threaded with beads, paracord may be used as a pace counter to estimate ground covered by foot. The yarns of the core (commonly referred to as "the guts") can also be removed when finer string is needed, for instance as sewing thread to repair gear or fishing line in a survival situation. The nylon sheath is often used alone, the yarn in the core removed, when a thinner or less elastic cord is ...
