" 'No one came near
us for some time, and as we could hear the
sound of voices, we guessed that a great
council was taking place, and we agreed at
once to loosen the knots, so as to be in
readiness for work, as like enough they would
put a sentry over us at night.
'It was a risky thing to try, for we might
be disturbed at any minute. Still we thought
it were our only chance, so Jack set to work
with his teeth at my knots and in a quarter
of an hour had loosened them. We unbound
our thongs and then fastened them up again
so that to the eye they looked just the same
as before, but really with a jerk they would
fall off us.
'I must teach you how to do that, Harold,
some time yer may find it of use."
G.A. Henty, True to the Old Flag
Ropes
Adventure RopeTM
Just like a trusty pocket knife or multi-tool, every child needs a length of rope to call his own. But not just any rope! The rope must be strong and just the right length and thickness for most tasks & adventures. Our Adventure RopeTM is designed and selected to serve your child for a lifetime.
Our Adventure RopeTM originates from high-standard yachting applications, and is highly resistant to damage from the sun, rain, and chaffing. When you handle this rope, you can almost taste the salt spray and hear the sharp commands of the captain on an America Cup contender.
Our Adventure RopeTM is available in two lengths:
- 20 foot Adventure RopeTM, suitable for boys and girls age 6-8.
- 50 foot Adventure RopeTM, recommended for older children, ages 9 and up.
Our Adventure RopeTM is manufactured in the U.S.A. by an American-owned manufacturer.
Specification: 3/8" double braided polyester. Working load 490 pounds. White with red tracer.
Order 20 feet $9.99
Also perfect length for lashing timbers.

If you own only one rope, this is the one..
Action CordTM
This cord is made of solid braided nylon, which means it is solid to the core with a smooth finish. This cord is ideal for practicing knots, as you can carry a seven foot length in you pocket without hardly noticing. After many hours of use, the cord remains flexible and easy to untie.
This cord has so many uses that we can't list them all here. Some of the possibilities include erecting an outdoor shelter with a plastic sheet, making a makeshift belt, or lashing logs together to make a raft. The energetic outdoors person will need at least 20-50 feet along before heading into the unknown.
All of our rope is manufactured in the United States by American craftsmen.
Specification: 3/16 inch diameter solid braid nylon. Working load 75 pounds. Black.
