Bracelet: 10 Yards of Kevlar Cord

1.5 mm diameter, 300 lbs tensile strength, can be used as a friction saw. Pull on the aglet to easily unravel.

I've made a Paracord version of this, but kevlar is thinner and stronger.

Thought that was a tampon with a comically long chord for a second or two

A musical tampon?

Makes a ZZZZZZZIP! sound.

Probably followed by a scream.

This is a really good idea! Compact, light and durable. There has been at least a dozen times camping when I could have used this.

Ok, so pull to easily unravel, that's cool, but what about when you're done then it's surely a doozy to put it back in bracelet form, no?

Not too hard at all. Here's a video on how it's done. I wrap mine slightly differently, but same basic premise.
