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 is soft and cushy. It is completely bendable. I don't know how long it would last of you were doing that every day, but it is capable.

It is fairly stiff, as are all paper tapes. Not good for use on areas of the body like joints or areas that require a lot of flexibility. Was used for securing bandage to the back of an individual that was primarily confined to bed. This paper tape product is the superior to other brands I've used.

It is "a little flexible within limits dictated by a pre-formed shape", you wouldn't be able to tie knots w/ the cord or fold it in half. It's somewhat flexible though.

It's pretty thin, about an inch wide without the paracord. I ended up just making a wooden handle for it. It has 2 holes in the tang, so you won't have to drill them out yourself.

it's kind of a soft plastic. Not a hard plastic, it has some give. It is not cheaply made. It is very smooth.

it is not the scratchy hard plastic kind. It is a softer, more user friendly braide.

The paracord is orange. However, it's extremely simple (and common) to rewrap this knife. I chose black cord and watched a YouTube video that showed me an even "meatier" way to wrap it. It can be done, easily, in under 20 minutes. To boot, this knife is a workhorse. The sheath is top-quality and adjustable.

Yes, you could call it soft. I am using the wire (in a 3d printer) controlling moving parts. The constant flexing of the wire has not caused any problems.

No, it is narrower. I put pieces side-by-side and the paracord is about twiuce the diameter. (~1/8").

It is pretty stiff. There is a slight give because it is basically rigid and hard.

I had no problem with the flexibility of the cord. It's not overly thick and is easily maneuvered.

I can tell you that with the guts still in the paracord it's a super tight fit, if not nearly an impossible fit. So, while I haven't tried it, you should be okay. When in doubt, I'd knot the end before going into the loop and you'll be fine.

I definitely would. I've bo bought paracord from different brands and sometimes ended too short. This particular brand I did fine with.

The cord is flexible, but it does not stretch. Other than that, it is made of good material and doesn't fray so quickly. I hope this helps you.

Most paracords are thicker and a lot stronger.This is also very stretchy and could not be used to hold and weight..It is use for hoods or sleeves.If you want a cord with stretch that is thin this is it.This cord also comes in thicker sizes.Which can be bought at Quest Outfitters but not this cheap.

I find the red connecting cable a bit stiff----prefer another brand of interchangeable needles when I am using "magic loop" method to do socks. I like the cloth case in which they are stored.
