Pretty Cool!

 

Wow! Something like that was not even on my radar. I learn something new every day on HF.

 

Interesting idea but I'm not sure how practical it is for everyday wear. I have a few of the survival bracelets and the larger ones are just too uncomfortable to wear everyday and that one looks to be larger than the largest one I have.

There was a guy named Ranger Rick that used to make a survival necklace. I bought one and it worked pretty good. It included wire saw in the whole thing. But I think Rick went out of business. To bad, he had some decent stuff.\

 

That's cool!

I guess the large bracelet would be a bit much for everyday, but if you kept it with your backpack, in your bike bag, or wore it hiking, etc. you'd have it in case an ordinary outing took a bad turn.

 

$40 for the super model... too much imho

I'd think about getting a cheaper, smaller model

never seen anything like that before... cool idea

 

Soon bracelets wont be allowed in airplanes.

 

Yeah, it'd probably be simpler if you just had to strip and wear a paper gown for your flights.

 

Don't worry, ill wear 4 or 5 on each wrist to give to other people on the plane

 

Hate to revive an older thread but just wanted to say I picked up one of the WASP paracord bracelets a week ago and am thrilled. It's not as big or bulky as I was expecting and is ok for everyday wear. Well made and fit perfectly. Just have to measure your wrist right. Love to have people ask me about it and they can't believe so much is packed into it.

I also picked it up from this retailer for a bit cheaper than what is being asked for on AMAZON.
