This paracord is made by a company called E.L. Wood, located in Central New York. They are a mil-spec, government supplier of U.S. made paracord. Their cordage is high quality and proven in the field. Do not settle for cheap foreign knockoff cord. Buy the American-made stuff, the good stuff.

Safety Note:

When you cut paracord, or any other synthetic cordage, in order to prevent the ends from fraying, slightly melt the ends with a lighter or match. Be very careful, as the melted cord can drip on you, causing a burn.
