9KM DWLIFE Black Kevlar Cord, 50lb~1500lb, High Tensile Strength, Flame Resistant, Braided Fishing Line, Wind Chime String, Kite Line, Camping, Model Rocket, Outdoor Survival Strong String

I chose the 0.8mm size (8-strand hollow-braid).1st impressions using this cord -- I expected this cord to be round like a tiny rope, but it is flat like a tiny shoelace. Simple knots like square knot or bowline work with this cord. (It is NOT slick like nylon monofilament. Yeah, knots weaken the cord. There's sailor and mountaineer lore about proper knots for Kevlar.) This cord resists fraying at a metal hole, but not extraordinary. A freshly drilled hole can cut the cord. Chamfered hole, no fraying. Cord can be cut with a sharp knife, but scissors is better. Even with very sharp scissors, the cut end still frays. Unlike cotton thread, wetting the frayed end does not help getting it through a tiny hole. Can't melt the cut end to stop the fray. (It doesn't get sticky with heat, it just burns.) Soak with glue and then cut is the only way I found to stop the fray. Elmer's or water-soluble glue is less mess.First use was tying a tweezer to my backpack. The tiny tool is easily lost while pulling other stuff out of a zipper pocket. This cord works great. It is almost as easy to use as cotton string, but will last much longer.

I practice falconry, and I was looking for some cord to make the equipment for my bird. This was the wrong size, but it's an excellent product, nevertheless. It's durable as can be, and it's very light comparatively. The quality is second to none. I'd recommend it to anyone creating crafts or equipment requiring a functional cord/twine.

Not taking any points off the review for this because the product is absolutely as described, high quality, etc, but a word of warning: This stuff is thin and does not stretch, which means if you get it tangled, you will not be getting it untangled. This isn't like untangling earbuds cables, it's like trying to un-knit a sweater or un-weave a piece of cloth.

The string does not come as pictured. It is smaller. The strength for my windchimes is spot on. The color, and thickness are very good. It is OK for what I paid.

performing as expected...used it to stitch nylon nylon straps for boot knife sheath attachments, and is holding strong

I used it to fix a wind chime and it worked great. It's very sturdy and came quick at a affordable price. I would buy it again.

This is a very sturdy string. I think that it is rated at 50 lbs. tensile strength.I used mine to repair a broken pair of eyeglasses frames. But you could also use this string just to reinforce the frames themselves. Either by going though the screw aperture in the frames of the glasses. Or by just rapping it around the connecting parts of the frames.So, far the knots I made with the string are holding well. The string is very hard to cut, even with sharp scissors. It just goes to show you that the string is very tough.You could also use the string for hunting purposes, or personal security. The string would definitely hold up to be used as some sort of trip wire, or to set up snares for small animals.

The media could not be loaded. It's decent, and will work fine for most needs. Fairly rugged, but does not live up to the marketing. I did two tests, lifting two 20lb dumbbells. They were head to head to produce minimal friction on the thread and in each test the thread didn't fail at the knot. Overall it's fine and I'll keep it, but I recommended testing it if you are relying on it for a specific purpose. (I attached a lower contrast image of the weight reading just before the moment of failure.)
