How well do these work on paracord or similar string?

Kerry, what did you decide on and how is it working out for you? I am just starting to work with paracord as a hobby and have tried a few different styles of basic scissors and utility cutters with unsatisfactory results. I haven't purchased anything specifically for paracord yet and what I've tried are cutting tools I already own, are sharp but maybe just not good for paracord.

Good day. I have used these to make earings, necklaces. ..ect. I have hot glued them on hair bow's and they have been a good seller of mine. Hope this helped.

If they were lightweight strings, I think it would work. (If you want to use them outside, I'm not sure they'd last, because of the cold and damp.)

I use them on my accoustc/electric and they work great. There are strings made for strictly electric guitars.

They are flexible, but I don't know how well they'd work in sewing projects. You'd have to try it and see.

they are not meant to. I had to modify mine and change screws. Also had to use a heavy duty adhesive. I like it soooo much better than the string

Yes, I have used it for many projects, and it seems to be holding up. (I make paracord items and also bracelets) Hope that helps.

The cords are very pliable and soft. They don't kink. If there is a kink when removed from case, just bend in the opposite way and the kink is removed. I love these needles. The best I've had. They are a bit thicker than other kinds, but the yarn flows freely, even at the needle joins.

they may work ok but just search on Amazon for Banjitar strings. get the real thing that way.

They work perfectly on electric guitars. I installed theses on my old Ibanex GX and they are amazing, no need for string winders and they keep the strings from slipping so no unnecessary re-tuning.

Very, very little stretch, if any at all. This is a "static" (I think that's the term!) cord. It's formed with a core of 7 two ply yarns, mostly white. The core iswrapped in the colored woven sheath. After you cut a piece, you will need to singe the ends to melt them to keep them from unraveling. There are severaltypes of paracord, but this answer refers specifically to the the cord I bought.

It might be good to solder the strands together on the ends. Just make sure you don't use too much or it might interfere with the connection. Perhaps just enough to band them together, but not enough so the connector clamps them on solder, if you know what I mean.

I'm sorry, I don't really know. I bought these to use for Zentangles. Since they are fairly thick I think it would be worth your while to try them out b/c they are so inexpensive.

Not sure, but so far no issues with string. I trim 4 or different areas each week no issues.

I like them just the way they are no attachment, it fine I don't remember seeing a string attachment.

You're not going to damage it. Those are standard strings. I use them with all of my guitars. Trust me, you're good. If you want to ask me some questions about getting started, post your email in a response and I will happily guide you through it.

Jon,Let me tell you my personal experience. I have been playing for 30+ years and the only other strings I would consider using other than these are Vinci's. Before changing strings with a new set of these, I had used the previous set of Elixir for more than 2 years. Only towards the "end" did they begin to show wear. I will probably use these strings from now on. 5 stars.
