How Can Someone Use QUIKCORD?
In short, Quikcord stores and dispenses your paracord NEVER allowing it to tangle. We all know that jackass Murphy… he always shows up and screws up plans… We made Quikcord to give ol Murphy the big middle digit. The better question here is how could you use PARACORD?
If you’re an outdoorsman (or outdoorswoman—no discrimination here), you already know paracord is like the duct tape of the wilderness. It’s that one tool you should never leave home without because you never know when you’ll need it to save your ass—literally. So, let’s dive into the top five uses of paracord that’ll make you feel like a survivalist MacGyver.
1. Setting Up Camp Like a Boss
Ever tried setting up a tent or tarp with flimsy string? It’s like trying to hold your pants up with dental floss—just don’t. Paracord is tough as hell and can handle the weight of your gear and a heavy rainstorm. Whether you’re securing your tent, hanging a tarp, or stringing up a hammock, paracord will keep your shit together, so you can focus on more important things like roasting marshmallows or telling ghost stories.
2. Emergency Shoelaces Because Life Happens
You’re hiking up a mountain, feeling like a total badass, and then—snap! Your shoelace breaks, and now you’re one bad step away from eating dirt. Don’t sweat it. Paracord to the rescue. Just cut a piece, lace it through your boots, and get back on the trail. Bonus: paracord shoelaces will probably outlive your boots.
3. Fishing Line When You Didn’t Plan on Fishing
You might not be Bear Grylls, but if you ever find yourself needing to catch dinner, paracord has got your back. Just pull apart the inner strands, tie on a hook, and boom—you’ve got a makeshift fishing line. It’s not gonna win any awards for elegance, but who cares? It’ll get the job done, and you’ll be feasting on fish instead of munching on granola bars like some kind of rabbit.
4. Splinting Broken Bones (Because Shit Happens)
Accidents happen—especially when you’re miles from civilization. Whether you’ve tripped over a rock or tried to climb something you definitely shouldn’t have, paracord can help. Use it to splint a broken bone or immobilize a sprained ankle. It’s like a wilderness first aid kit in string form. Sure, it’s not exactly hospital-grade, but it’ll keep things stable until you can limp back to safety.
5. Making a Damn Good Rope Ladder
Maybe you’re stuck at the bottom of a ravine, or maybe you just want to climb a tree like a freaking ninja. Either way, a paracord rope ladder is what you need. Just loop it through a few sturdy branches, and you’ve got yourself a DIY ladder. It might not be the most comfortable climb of your life, but it’ll hold your weight and get you where you need to go.
In Conclusion: Paracord is Life
There are countless other applications that are limited only to your imagination but if you’re heading into the wild, make sure you’ve got paracord in your pack. And if you’re smart, make sure it’s ready to go in your Quikcord. It’s cheap, lightweight, and strong as hell. If you’re lucky, you might never need to use it—but if you do, you’ll be damn glad it’s there. So go ahead, tie one on, show Mother Nature who’s boss, and give Murphy the big F U!
