Catching Elephant is a theme by Andy Taylor
FQFOB HBK 745 (UV Coated Hybrid Kevlar®)
It looks very similar to the standard FQFOB but has been constructed using UV coated Hybrid Kevlar® Cord with a 550 paracord outer.
As with any FQFOB the operator can easily unravel the cord in less than 5 seconds!
- For speed use a knife to cut away the retainer knot.
- If you have the time you can untie the knot.
- With retainer knot removed now pull out the two pieces of end cord.
- Then pull hard on the end loop whilst holding bracelet tight.
- Keep pulling until all cord is free.
- Run the cord through you hands to straighten it out.
- You now have approx. 4 x 6ft of UV coated Kevlar® Cord + 1 x 6ft of 550 outer cord sheath; a total of 30ft in a FOB!
Cutting the knot off is the quickest method.
There is also another method; using an object such as a pen, key etc push where the two pieces of cord protrude from the retainer knot.
This will cause the cord to go inwards and the knot will start to undo.
- Weight 9g (standard 550 FQFOB 12g).
- Length 3½” (88.9mm excl end loops)
- Potential tensile strength 745lb “Stronger-Than-Steel”
- Attach to keys, MOLLE, pocket tools etc.
With keys attached this product can be utilised as an improvised self-defence tool
*The inner strands and outer 550 sheath can be used as a field expedient friction saw for cutting through rope, gaffa tape, zip-ties etc
