Evil Toad Tactical was a review site and service that was created to test various surplus, military, survival, and outdoor items. They also produced some of their own gear.  The company's four founders recently retired, and I purchased all of their remaining inventory. Check my other listings as I will be adding more items and options.
Here is what Evil Toad had to say about this item
This survival kit / keychain comes with about 9 feet of certified 550 paracord.  If you are buying 550 paracord, be sure it has 7 to 9 inner strands, each comprised of three intertwined threads. If the paracord is labeled as "Type III," then it must have a breaking strength of at least 550 pounds and a minimum elongation rating of 30%. All Type III cords require the use of 7 to 9 internal strands. The paracord in this item is comprised of 9 main strands, each with three threads, for a total of 27 threads.
All of the paracord used in our products was tested with a 550 lb. static load running over a single pulley connected to a winch. Items were lifted until at least two feet off the ground (including elongation) and held for a count of two minutes. The cord was then tested using a jack and a load gauge to find the final break point. In all tests the cord performed well above the 550 lb. load requirement, and routinely handling up to 700 lbs. Additional tests for abrasion resistance were conducted, and the single pulley was replaced with a solid steel shackle wrapped with 60 grit sandpaper (replicating a stone ledge). Load was lifted a minimum of twelve inches off the ground (after elongation), forcing the cord to experience a continuous abrasive condition under load over a distance of one foot of lift. Despite showing moderate to severe sheath damage, all items tested were able to lift the weight and hold for a count of two minutes.
All paracord is designed to be highly elastic. In fact, it was originally designed for use with parachutes and it is actually meant to have a certain amount of elasticity prior to reaching it's critical breaking point (mil spec calls for a minimum elongation rating of 30%). Unfortunately, the survival community is somewhat split on this issue. Some feel it is a benefit of paracord, while others see it as a drawback. Either way, ours was designed to meet the spec, so it is highly elastic.
