I took a chance buying a 100 foot coil of this `` extra heavy duty1100 paracord. Seemed pricey, but looks and feels sturdy. The package describes this as 100% nylon with 16 inner strands. There is no WLL or any other strength specification listed anywhere on the package. I have successfully used this line to hold heavy cargo tarps on truck and trailer, as well as to tie down and secure tools and gear. This line is easy to work, knot and untie as lighter 550 cord. Though made in China, hopefully this will serve me well.

great item to have handy in the outdoors- can use in so many applications

[ I always pack some 550 with a carabiner already attached. I like the small light weight carabiner because I can quickly setup a ridge line only having to tie one knot. So this just made sense for me. It is hard to find the color black locally so that's a win too.

Quality rope, carabiner, reflective, great length, and effective use! What more can you ask for in a compact size for multi- use in a campsite?! Bang for Buck!

Forward heavy on the swing and holds an edge. This hatchet makes light work of common chores in the bush... I absolutely love the backup lighter storage, just in case I feel the need to cheat on starting a fire.

5 meggiej3
[ Wow, I was surprised at the quality of this hatchet. It has a nice weight to it, just enough that it ’s light enough to still easily use to chop wood. We camp a lot so this will be perfect for cutting up some smaller logs of wood. I love the rope and lighter storage in the handle too. I really like the color as well. Thank you Gerber for making an awesome product!

5 davids259
[ Very nice hatchet! It is very well weighted which makes it easy to swing. Nice addition in the handle with the paracord and the little compartment.

5 aneldap1
[ Durability is good, and portability is good, does n't take up much room and versatility and comfort and safety, and you can carry a lighter inside of it for starting a bonfire or for just chopping wood for the wood burner

5 jeffs22
[ Ooooooh yeah this has easily become a new favorite hatchet to add to the collection! Pictures do not do this justice at all, it's got some weight to it that's for sure. Thank you for sending me this to try out.

Wanted a knife to take bikepacking. Wanted it to be durable and relatively light. I have battoned hickory with it and feathered kindling. No compromise in the edge or sharpness. I use a Worksharp to sharpen it and know I made the right choice.

5 mech2660
I bought this knife due to the reputation of the manufacturer, it has exceeded my expectations. It feels good in my hand, blade stays sharp, and the sheath is not a cheap one.

5 Bearf250
I have had this knife over a year. It is my work horse knife that stays in my truck all the time. I abuse it regularly and it always performs well. I just cleaned up the edge for the first time, good as new.

5 Butch
Wasn ’ t sure how good knife was going to be for price, this is an everyday user, stays sharpe, it is good quality for price, handle isn ’ t bad either, have couple of sogs, love them all. would recommend for all to get one.

5 2Tiberious
[ Great Product. This is my second one. I would suggest getting this HD version with the plastic backer plates. Skip the well nuts, and use this instead, you will thank yourself later. Plus install is easier now that you have a something to grip onto from the inside! Rope is plenty long and strong for any Yak/Canoe. The cord has minimal stretch, keep loose for initial install while cord get comfy, then tighten one time after, and you are good to go. As Always, YakAttack made a great product even better!.

[ Does exactly what it ’s suppose to do, good hardware would recommend if you need an anchor trolly, bit pricey but it ’s clean and low profile!!
