DIY Kevlar Bracelet (lemmy.world)

  • 5 feet of kevlar line that can be unraveled near instantly.
  • Easily and quickly made back into a bracelet after use.
  • Stop bullets with bracelet like Wonder Woman. Just kidding.

Kevlar line is tough enough to be used as a friction saw. It can cut through a tree! It can also carry a stupid amount of weight for such a thin diameter. I used a 1.6 mm diameter line with 400 lbs strength.

I decided to keep this bracelet to 5 ft for jobs that don't require lots of cordage, but you can make it any length.

Here's a past post of some Paracord versions I've made with links on how to make them.

Note: Kevlar can't be melted, so knotting the ends is required to prevent fraying.
