What is Paracord 550 Type III?

The cord was first introduced during World War II, where it was used for parachutes. Once on the ground, it served many other useful purposes, such as stitching wounds. Paracord was highly valued by everyone who had to work with it; its material and construction make it lightweight, strong and compact. That is why the cord also found its way into other fields, such as sailing. Today it is used by military personnel and civilians alike. Paracord is now best known for making bracelets and dog collars, or for pimping your shoelaces.
