Product Description

The story behind SGT KNOTS begins with Mike Shelley. After serving in the Marine Corps, Mike started a simple website selling custom paracord keychains and bracelets. At the time, paracord was the military’s best kept secret.

Mike was shocked to discover how difficult it was to find paracord online, but even more shocked when his products began flying off the shelves faster than he could create them. The need for accessible, high-quality paracord was obviously out there, so Mike “SGT KNOTS” Shelley set out to make it happen.

As SGT KNOTS grew and branched out to new products - ropes, twines, cord - Mike saw a darker side of the rope supply industry. Suppliers masquerading as manufacturers and manufacturers using deceptive production techniques to cheapen products. The Marine Corps holds honesty and integrity in high regard. Mike knew SGT KNOTS would need to bring these values to the market.

Through years of trial and error, Mike built close relationships with reliable, top-quality American and international manufacturers that couldn't get into big-box retailers, but that plenty of DIYers, boat owners, farmers and ranchers, and businesses wanted. An online marketplace was the obvious solution.

From humble beginnings, SGT KNOTS has grown into a global depot with a steady stream of products shipping from around the world. SGT KNOTS utilizes both international and USA-based factories to manufacture the highest quality products available and bring them to market at the best possible value.

SGT KNOTS is now the leading webstore for all things paracord, rope, twine, and more! Through their ever-growing network honest manufacturers, SGT KNOTS can source any order, from small personal use supplies to custom bulk savings packages.

If you need a rope, cord, twine, or cable and you don’t see it in our current offerings, let us know and we can get it to you. That's a SGT KNOTS promise.

I purchased the SGT KNOTS Solid Braid Nylon Utility Rope for some DIY projects, and I couldn’t be more pleased with it. This rope is incredibly strong and versatile—I've used it for a variety of things like anchoring, towing, and even some crafting. The 3/16" diameter is perfect for my needs, and the 50ft length gives me plenty of rope to work with for bigger projects.The smooth braided texture makes it easy to handle, tie knots with, and it holds up well under tension without fraying. I especially love the durability of the nylon material—it’s resistant to wear and tear and can handle outdoor conditions, so I’m confident it’ll last a long time.It’s also super lightweight and flexible, which makes it easy to store and use in a variety of situations. The white color is clean and easy to spot, even in low light.Overall, this rope is great quality and incredibly useful. I’ll definitely be purchasing more in the future for my other projects. Highly recommend it to anyone in need of a reliable, multipurpose utility cord!

I needed to restring an outdoor screen with a small diameter rope that can withstand the elements. This string/rope did the job.

This rope is a good diameter to use to teach how to tie many knots. The nice part is is it is soft enough to be easily manipulated and not lock into a knot that is difficult to get untied.

The outdoor elements did not weaken it for my purpose intended. I’ve used and still using this rope on my balcony. I’ve had it for a couple of years. It’s still strong.

Arrived when promised and in good condition. The size ropes wanted wasn’t available so got the next size up. This rope is outstanding, nylon a not wrapped around some cheap filler. I’ve ordered before and will again when one runs low.

I need to replace the rope for a deer hoist that I’ve have for about 20 years. They don’t make rope like they used to. The key to this rope was the Solid Braid and 5/16 inch that glides perfectly through the plastic pulleys on my deer hoist.

Works like a charm, exactly the same size of the OEM that came with my lawnmower, and can be used it with my snowblower as well as it is the same size. Great product at a great price

Soft and supple nylon rope. It has a little bit of stretch/elasticity. In any given size, compare the prices of various colors - you might be lucky to find that some colors are at a discount relative to others.
