6 months is quite an age for friction cord of any spec- think of the abuse it gets- i would have issues passing it on age alone. Was it glazed or did it have memory?

 

Pics would be great.

6mths old but hasnt had that much use as have been using homemade cords.use it with my HC works really well,main reason i bought it was the anti glaze speal honey bros gave me and to be fair it has,nt glazed much also try to use a fig 8 descender to come out of big trees to try and save friction cord
