The Beadsmith Fireline by Berkley – Micro-Fused Braided Thread – 4lb. Test, 005”/.12mm Diameter, 125 Yard Spool, Smoke Grey – Super Strong Stringing Material for Jewelry Making and Bead Weaving…

This is what I believe is best to use when beading. Native American beading to be specific! No need to wax the thread as it is already. Zero fraying. Cost is about average compared to stores. Only stuff I’ll be using here on out moving forward!

Excellent product.

I really like Fireline instead of other filament beading thread. It is more durable, easy to manage on the spool, and is a decent price. I like the reel clip that helps secure the thread on the reel. And not all of the other brands have the small slit in the outer edge of the reel to slip the thread in to give that extra security to keep it from coming unwound from the spool. For me, this is the best braided thread.

To me, this is the best line for bead weaving and jewelry making. It does not fray and is very easy to work with. The crystal is basically invisible when you use it and a weave.

I like these for the clearness and durability of the thread, i made several daisy chain bracelets with it and they came out perfect. Thread is light and stiff which is great for threading tiny beads and you don't need to use collapsible eye needles because of the threads strength. Great product will buy again.

I buy this product often for beadweaving projects and it's always been my go to. I've tried some of the other threads but this is easiest to work with and most durable.

I’ve been beading for several years but this is my first time with FireLine. (I have always used Wildfire) This is quite different, which was expected with it also being sold as fishing line. I think I’m going to really like it. I’ve always stayed away from fishing line; I can’t stand that stuff! But this is very different. It doesn’t tangle like regular fishing line and holds its shape when you curve or bend it. It has a smooth feel and is quite strong. It is just stiff enough to pick up a few small beads without a needle. The color says smoke, but if you look at my pics, compared to white beads it looks black to me. I ordered a 50 yard roll of 0.006 but received a 55 yard roll of 0.008. I’m not too concerned about the size though. Again looking at my pics, you can see that a 2 mm bead will easily take multiple passes. All in all I think it will be an awesome thread to work with, not as a replacement to Wildfire, but as another choice in my bead toolbox.This may seem trivial to some, but I dropped one star because to secure the spool you only get a sticker instead of the plastic clip like Wildfire has. I will have to dig around for a spare clip, because there’s no way that sticker is going to hold. If it weren’t for that small annoyance this would be a 5 star product.

Excellent quality for beading.
