Catahoula Tarred, Braided, Nylon Twine, 36 (1/4 lb)

Ok BEFORE YOU BUY BANKLINE / TARRED LINE, READ THIS. There is a difference between braided and twisted tarred line. Catahoula sells both types. Red and blue labels. Braided line does not fray. If you cut it, the ends should hold true. This is great for knot tying and things like ridge lines etc, its great to have, easy to use, and better than paracord. But unlike paracord you most likely wont untwine it...its good stuff. Braided bank line will likely cost more. Dont confuse the difference and cost. Twisted tarred line pulls apart easy, can be taken apart into three smaller strands easly. Make snares, use as thread to fix backpacks and if needed can extend the length of you line by three times (but weaker line). The ends need to be knotted to assure it wont untwine. Twisted bankline will likely cost less. Catahoula line is AWSOME, they sell both types; twisted and braided. Its dipped in tar, and great quality. I hate to say it. I never use paracord anymore. Its bankline and amsteel always. Amsteel is what it sounds like, very very strong. Oh and regular cheap jute twine, jute twing biodegrades, starts on fire nice, is light, cheap and very useful. At first I said I could not tell much difference if at all between #36 catahoula and sgt knots bank/tarred twisted line. I just looked hard at both. Catahoula clearly is much more dense in the amount of tar. When bent or pinched it holds the bend while Sgt knots does not. Sgt knots, while I love it, does not seem to have as much tar in it. In the picture I supplies, Catahoula is on the top showing it keeps the bend points, do to having more tar while Sgt knots didnt. This comparison is on both twisted lines due to Sgt knots not having braided line. Both serve a purpose, both very good. Both completely different.. I...when I go out I try to take a length of both.

Perfect for hundreds of bushcraft projects. Not so easy to untie so I usually just leave it behind.

Great stuff strong and doesnt get things all goopy or leave tar marks. Best item to keep in your bugout bag or emergency kit.
