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!

The tubing is lightweight, and feels somewhat brittle. It is not soft in texture. The flexibility is more suitable to protect stationary cords (e.g.: between a computer and an outlet, rather than between a computer and mouse; or between a phone's base and the wall instead of base to handset).

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

No, that seemed to be ok. It should feel stiff. With use it should get easier to use.

It is soft and pliable. You can wrap around branches, etc. Hope this helps.

It is thin and pliable. They come two to a packet. One of mine came apart at the seam. The other has not SO FAR !

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.

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.

It's not a really hard plastic, but I wouldn't call it soft, either. But it is somewhat flexible. It's not padded, but I find it comfortable enough to wear most of the day.

It is easy to handle and flexible, very similar to braided fishing line. Standard knots will slip, so you need to use knots designed for synthetic line i.e. Palomar, figure-8 . Very strong, would buy again

It's not flexible like a cord but flexible enough to get around the back of your head and ears! I have mine for quite some time now and I love tnem! Hope that it'll help!

It is easy to tie, very pliable. Does not hold knots very well. Almost feels like Teflon.

It's rubbery. It's not thick and I don't believe it's too durable. I used it for bracelets only.

It is rigid, but not as thick as PVC. It is thinwall plastic tube. It will be okay for a cane, but it won't hold a lot of weight. We used it to make glow in the dark batons for relay for life.

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.

Its not stiff at all. Its very flexible. You can roll it up like a burrito.

It's incredibly sturdy. I don't know that I would describe it as "flexible." It's very heavy gauge wire.
