... or for Tarzan'ing across a battle station's inexplicably dangerous chasm with your princess. After you use it, you can send it back to the folks at Survival Straps and they will re-wind it for you, free of charge. And for even more thrift, Instructables user Stormdrane has a great guide for weaving up your own. The pre-wound version from Survival Straps will run you $18-$22 depending on the buckle you want, and are available in 30 colors. [Survival Straps via Boing Boing Gadgets, Instructables]

The bracelet that can help you swing across a canyon
DVICE Atom Feed —
... if you were wearing a Survival Bracelet, you'd be all set for any rappelling or swinging you may find yourself required to perform.
The Survival Bracelet is made up of 15 to 20 feet of 550-pound test paracord. If you ever need it, simply unravel it and use the hook that's on one end. When you're done, you can send it back in to the manufacturer and they're rewind it back into a bracelet for you. Not a bad accessory for the adventurer on the go.

Most people probably wouldn't ever end up using it, but I think they're pretty attractive in a ultra masculine way. They're available in a variety of colors with either steel or plastic clasps for around $20-$25.

... started on extreme sports) but if you're a more rugged type than me, you might be interested in this survival bracelet from Survival Straps.
Not only does it look good as a piece of rugged, rustic jewelry, it can be unwound if you're ever in a sticky situation, and once you've made it back to safety (crossed a river, made it down a mountain, whatever) just send it back for re-winding. Prices start at $20. I'd like to see Tiffany try to match that.
