When seconds count in the activities you engage in and if you are one of those who are all about function and performance, I have a product for you. If you are an outdoors type then chances are Paracord/survival bracelets have become ubiquitous in your circles. I have been making them for quite a while now and my problem has always been the amount of time it takes to unravel one for use. WHAT IF IT'S AN EMERGENCY?. So I set out to solve this problem and have come up with several new designs which allow a more rapid deployment of your cord.
This is a sinet braid which when the two working ends are pulled in opposite directions, the braid simply falls apart in a second. It should be noted that the braid will not fall apart accidentally. It takes intently pulling the ends in opposing directions for it to work. Above is the 3/8 inch buckle option. Below are the ball lock closures which are the fastest option. I can go from it being on my wrist to completely unraveled in approximately 3-5 seconds! A close up of the ball lock on the rapid deployment bracelet.
Below is a traditional cobra weave with the addition of a pull tab negating the need for scissors or a sharp knife to cut out the melted ends for unweaving. Just bite the end with your teeth and pull. It still takes a minute to unbraid the thing but it gets rid of the need for tools to do it.
