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

Great product I have both braided and twisted and recommend braided it holds the knots tighter, good price for a great camp string, I used bright green construction string for years but this is way better after your knot put a lighter to it and seal it up!

supply and demand is driving the price up but its still a fine twine. :)

Could not find this product locally searched everywhere no one knew what it was. This is great stuff worth looking around a bit for! Very strong and you can carry tons of it compared to larger cordage in the same space. I would put it in the same catagory as Atwood micro cord both are excellent small cordage.

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.

Its much cheaper if you buy it by the pound.

What’s not to like about bank line?? It is absolutely amazing. It’s a bit stiff due to the tarring, but this assists in its ability to remain in place once used. Outside of tying a few simple knots, I haven’t used it much, but it will suffice for every project I need it for.

This line is amazing, so easy to tie and untie, thank you Dave Canterbury for turning me on to bank line.

This is nice braided line, But Im doubting the tarred part. Ive been a bout builder/ repairer for almost 45 yrs. I detect no tar smell or soot when I apply heat to the raw end of this line.

This is a great product I loved it so much I bought three of them...

I just whipped the ends of some of my rope. This product works excellent.
