Is the paracord soft and malleable or is it stiff.

I would say it's in between. Very good quality, easy to work with and most important to anyone crafting with Paracord, it splices very good. I have never had any problems with Paracord Planet cord.

I would say it is somewhere in between. Great to tie knots with. Very strong!

It's not stiff at all. It's very flexible. On the flip side, I've had issues with my controller not charging while plugged in, and frequent game interruptions because the PS3 thought my controller was unplugged (which it wasn't).

I find the braided one to actually be more maneuverable than the non-braided version that is the same thickness. The "ultra-thin" non-braided is the most maneuverable/flexible, but I feel like it's not a durable either. If you're not moving your cable around often it shouldn't really matter which one you get, so more of a personal preference. I switch between two displays on my laptop regularly and I like the braided version a little more for that, but have a non-braided one for my Xbox.

I'd use the best paracord I could get. Be aware that there's a lot of inferior cord out there, looks the same but isn't. Do your homework on who you buy it from.

Sounds about right. The paracord is light but strong. The clips are light and the rings are the only thing that are some what "heavier". But 8oz sounds about right.

Yes. However, it is a bit smooth. I would wrap it with paracord or gaffers tape.

I use paracord in a couple different ways. Either hanging from my backpack or attatched tightly to my belt. This is a great knife

Yes, the cord is very tough. The wire inside is made of flexible steel and has a tough solid plastic coating. The wire is molded with left and right channels side-by-side like a lamp cord. It is of medium thickness. It is far thicker than small portable headphones but not as thick as most audiophile headphones. All of the materials in this model are more durable than they look at first. Many people get these and have a first impression that they are light and flimsy looking and feeling. But the materials are very carefully chosen and work to create a very durable set of headphones. My set has been dropped onto cement recently and they didn't suffer any damage at all, not even a scratch. Yes, the cord is very tough.

sadly no this cord is very stiff and I've tried to soften it up with use but to no avail. however they sound amazing so i deal with the cord issues.

Well from my experience Paracord either comes as Nylon Paracord or Polyester Paracord. They have the same "Break" strength but nylon is a bit more flexible and costs more. So to answer your question....Yes it is wrapped in paracord, I just don't know what material.

It is very flexible. think of it as a fine rope. Very sturdy and strong. doesn't fray when working with it.

The material is not a rigid plastic nor is it overly pliable like rubber but to the touch it will feel softer like rubber.

It looks and feels like real paracord, but I have not unwrapped it to test strength or durability. If you were a contestant on Naked and Afraid this probably isn't the one item you want to take with you, but for having around the house for $5 it is a god deal.

its non braided. fyi, non braided cords are actually generally desirable for fps mice for their added flexibility when in fps you generally move your mouse more drastically than in other applications. Like the new Rival by steelseries that is specifically designed for fps is their only mouse without a braided cable. I was actually afraid to order this mouse on amazon because it appeared to be a version with a braided cable. This mouse also has a gold plated usb and a ferrite bead on the cable, so definitely not low end mouse. In my experience CM Storm has always had excellent build quality at a reasonable price. its non braided. fyi, non braided cords are actually generally desirable for fps mice for their added flexibility when in fps you generally move your mouse more drastically than in other applications.

It's soft and bendable but thick enough to be useful for a long time. I fully agree with the previous four answers and I definitely would buy this same product again from the same vendor because the service was excellent, too.

It is pretty stiff. I would only use it for a utilitarian application as opposed to a clothing closure for instance. Hope that helps.

No, the cable is not stiff at all. The flat shape of the cable was a selling point for me since the shape resists tangling and tying into knots.
