The Belt section itself is a single length of 550 Paracord which can be unraveled literally in seconds for a whole manner of rescue techniques. Speed is what makes the difference in a survival situation. You can unravel the entire belt with one pull The belt can supply you with a length upwards of 70 feet of cord, This particular belt used 50 feet for a 32" waist. The weaving method used means the cord doesn't need to be cut from the reel until the desired length of belt is reached, this saves wasting cord. To utilize your cord in an emergency simply untie the overhand knot on the end of your cord. Undo the loops around the Pull the length of cord back through the first 4 loops to release your working end Pull hard on the working end and the whole belt will begin to unravel. From start to finish you can undo the entire belt in about 20 seconds (a painful thought when you realize how long it took to make) If you would like a longer length of cord and more width in your belt simply use 5 or 6 loops in each row instead of the 4 I used. In theory you can use as many loops as you like as long as your buckle is wide enough.
