I got the Black Monk Rosary and it is awesome. This is the first paracord rosary I have ordered and although it is a bit bigger than I expected its great and I love it. Feels like it would survive till the end of the world.

Very nice, gave to 83 yr old preist I've known since I was a child!!
He was very appreciative an happy to get it. Thank you an continue the good work!!

I have several Rugged Rosaries, Most of them I give out as gifts.. All of them are of outstanding quality. They live up to the company name, Rugged to say the least as well as beautiful. I consider them the best.

Purchased 2 rosaries recently. Both the excellent quality. A beautiful St. Therese rosary and a black monks rosary. These are the real deal and look like they will last a life time. Keep up the good work.

Well made. Beautiful.

This was my first purchase from RR and I am definitely impressed. The beads and paracord have a great tactile feel which has helped me stay grounded during prayer. But my favorite part is the large crucifix. On many rosaries, it seems like the crucifix functions like an accessory to the beads and the corpus is barely discernible. By contrast, the beautiful crucifix on the Black Monk is weighty and striking, recalling St. John Paul II's words that the rosary is "at heart a Christocentric prayer"

Well made, beautiful, sturdy. A true blessing

Love the "Black Monk" Rosary that I received. Great quality and very well made. Well worth the investment.

I really like it and the rosary looks good with quality materials, I felt so good about that rosary and give me more to do praying with the saints that I added the small round medals of the saints. I will like to order more items so that I like all goods materials and quality items. I enjoys the that I received 2 weeks ago. I didn't have any problems at all to receive it. Thanks you so much I will order more. God bless you.

Thanks a million I really enjoyed the rosary, its very detailed and quality is a plus.

I couldn't be happier with my new Black Monk rosary. I carry it with me everyday.

This is my second rosary! Compared to the first, which had metal beads, these resin beads are very light. Be aware that if you already have a metal bead rosary from RR, this is much lighter feeling. I was surprised by the lightness, but the strength is still there, both spiritually and physically - our one-year-old puts this rosary to the test and it does just fine. Stop thinking this over and just buy it already!

It's well-made, not ostentatious, and a serious rosary with soldier-style attitude. Thank you so much!

I kind of wanted the medal of St Michael to be where the knot is (above the Crucifix, like a standard Rosary), rather than looped in the cord on one side. It looks and feels a bit funny to me in that position. However it’s a beautiful symbol of my faith, and the quality and craftsmanship are stellar. I’m happy with my purchase, and will recommend.

Very well crafted and very happy with my purchase, I wear these and I’m a big guy so they fit well

So any 5 years ago I was in a relationship with a woman who had 5 kids then I had 2 and my twin brother who was murdered had two.. I was with this girl for abt 9 years helped raise all our kids and me I was fair to all them 6 boys and 3 girls.. believe me it was a challenge amd I did last as long as I did.. so it's been almost abt 5 years since we separated and I ran into the oldest on social media.. he told me he was bk in town and finished his navy tour.. so I was so greatful to hear from him.amd told him I wanted to buy him a gift and told him it wuld be a rosary and he can pick which one he wanted.. so he told me I hvnt had one since the last time I seen u amd he was greatful I asked him.. so he picked the one he wanted amd I liked it so much I almost kept it.. but I didnt.. he loved it.. I also purchased an Ash to Ash rosary for my girlfriend she tells me she gets so many compliments on it and she likes it as well.. so to be honest I am very happy that my family love their gifts.. as a matter a fact my fren will be having surgery july27 she has cancer in one of her kidneys.. what they are trying to do is jus cut half of her kidney off jus where the cancer is but such a great fren I told her the same ima buy u a gift but u hv to pick it..at first she told me no.. u dnt pick gifts.. I told her believe me this gift u will want to pick and once she saw the site.. she said uber rgt I will pick this gift if u dnt mind.. I said I wuld hv not asked u if I didnt know wat I was talking abt.. and she picked the "Faith over fear rosary " very beautiful.. cant wait to give it to her.. thanks and I'll keep ordering from u guys.. everyone loves them.. thanks again amd god bless u all at these hard times!!

I have been using an all metal WWI replica rosary for a few years now. I had been feeling to urge to buy another one, and this Black Monk Rosary looked intriguing. The rope is strong, the knots are tight, and there is a lot of substance to this particular rosary. The acrylic is durable, while the Benedictine Cross is of very high quality. Highly, highly, highly recommend you pick one up, and pray it every day!

You know you’ve prayed your rosary once you’ve fingered all these beads: sturdy, resolved, stout-hearted. Onward!

This is my 3rd rosary and everytime I get one they’re amazing! High quality and super strong! I’m trying to get 1 of each! Highly recommended!!

I am very, very with my purchase.The item is bigger than I expected but that is NOT a bad thing. I am so happy that I was finally able to receive one of these. Thank u so much, God bless u all.

Well crafted rosary. Extremely fast shipping. Will definitely buy from Rugged Rosaries again.

I bought the black Monk Rosary. Super impressed. This is my first rosary, and I have been praying to it each night since I’ve received it. I also bought the Army Camo rosary for my wife who is living far away from me right now on orders. We got them blessed on the same day.

I love this rosary! Beautiful and solid craftsmanship. I tend to pace and shut my eyes as I pray the rosary. This rosary is easy to roll over the fingers with excellent tactile feedback that keeps me on track. Thank you!

Great quality love it got it as a gift for my son.

It’s beautiful and better than I expected!

Great quality rosaries! Just what I was looking for. As I try to pray my rosary every day, so many times my rosaries fall apart or get damaged in my pocket. It's pretty clear that with these beautiful ones, that won't be the case. Highly recommended.

My husband just love his original rugged rosary. A perfect gift for Father’s Day. They are such great quality and service was great! God bless all at rugged rosary🙏

Absolutely love my rosary!!!

It met all expectations.

The Rosary is Awesome. Will be ordering more and will recommend to friends

Awesome piece of art!

First time purchase and all I can say is its beautiful and I love my new rosary! It is certainly rugged.

Well built and will be a heirloom piece now. Love it and has been put to use already! Thanks Rugged Rosaries, looking forward to my next purchase!

I love the black out look and the lightweight of the beads. It's just perfectly constructed for the ruggedness that I use it . The beads are light weight so it doesn't add weight to your pocket . Once you put it in your pocket you don't even realize you have it with you. Love that I can use it and now I can pray literally any where even when I'm camping and not worry breaking it because they way there built! Definitely recommend it !

I bought this as a gift for our priest, he really liked it and commented how substantial it felt in his hand! Very satisfied!

This was my first purchase. I purchased this Rosary for my son's 25th Birthday. He absolutely loves it! It is so well made and fits just perfect. It looks really good on him and I am so happy with the purchase. It is beautiful. I most definitely will be purchasing again from this sight. I also love the fact that my son wears this because of his faith.

Beautiful, the workmanship and attention to detail is incredible. I highly recommend this product and company.

I gave this Rosary to my sister in hopes it would help lead her to Christ. Since then, she has learned to pray the Rosary and has decided to have her young son baptized. I believe this Rosary is an instrument of the Holy Spirit.

I always smile when a product exceeds my expectations. It so seldom that one does, but the Black Monk Rosary did. It is very well made, strong, and beautiful. I was so impressed that I bought another rosary for my daughter.

A Rugged weapon a Knight can conquer the Evil one with this Rosary. I will enjoy saying the Rosary it is a Awesome product! Thanks to a frinde he told me about the Web site. Thanks again.

The Black Monk is the ideal rosary. The appearance is really nice; great aesthetics. I have owned a lot of black bead rosaries, but this one really stands out. Bead size and overall weight make comfortable to use. I like this every bit as much as its "cousin" the Angelus Domini. And the Rugged Rosary name is accurate. I can't see this rosary breaking, even with extended regular use. Satisfied repeat customer.

Repeat customer. Very happy with the quality! Great RCIA gift!

Ordered rosaries as a gift for RCIA participants who will be joining the church next week. Wanted something that reflects Catholicism and manhood. The rosaries fit the bill perfectly. They are well made and reflect quality. It is my hope the rosaries will help them maintain their closeness to God.

I had been gifted one of these Rosaries a few years ago and love it; I recently purchased another one for a friend — the quality is great and they're very durable. If you're on the fence about it, I highly recommend them.

My wife and I gave this beautiful rosary to our new pastor at our parish to celebrate his instillation .Father Mike was very pleased . Thanks so much for a beautiful and well crafted rosary !

I recently purchased the Black Monk Rosary for my grandson for his First Communion,perfect for a boy’s first rosary.Hopefully the event will happen as the coronavirus might impact the date,but eventually he will receive his beautiful rosary.

Very substantial in quality, larger than anticipated, which was a good thing!

Very pleased. Not heavy like those with metal beads, so notice that in case it matters. GREAT customer service as well. Thanks!!

The black monk rosary is wonderfully constructed and I have the ultimate faith in its durability. I bought this because I wanted to wear day and night and possibly while swimming, but for me (personal opinion I’m 6’2”) its just not functional to wear because the beads, though very high quality, are large and the crucifix is too big. I do want to say that the crucifix in this rosary is one of finest I’ve ever seen and it is beautiful. I think I’m going to order WWI Replica rosary to see if it a more wearable.

I was glad to find a company that provides good catholic products that inspire us to pray and come closer to God.

I love the feel of the whole rosary. The crucifix is more detailed and beautiful than I imagined it would be.

I discovered this wonderful company by accident and what a Happy Moment!
I ordered The Black Monk rosary as a gift and it is a beautiful. My personal favorite is the Blue Meditation Rosary; the color and the crucifix make give it a soft power and stunning beauty!
Although the rosaries themselves would be enough to bring me back for further purchases, the "customer service" is so outstanding that I have become a loyal customer within one week! I had questions about the different rosaries and the medals and each email received a prompt and caring response. FIVE Stars for Rugged Rosaries!

I can not say enough about this beautiful product. I bought it as a gift for my husband who had seen one a friend had. I was hopeful that it would be durable and survive his pocket but I never expected the beauty. The pictures on the website are accurate but no where near as breathtaking as the item sent. The hefty crucifix on the end is detailed and stunning. I will definitely be ordering again soon. This product is high quality and unique! Thank you!!:)

Very impressed with the quality and workmanship of my new rosaries. Furthermore, the order and delivery process was fast and seamless. It’s truly great to see that there are still small craft businesses out there that deliver an superior product and exceptional service.

Really impressed with the craftsmanship and quality of the rosary. Thank you

Product, service, shipping, everything is excellent, thank you.

This is the second Rosary I have purchased from Rugged Rosaries. It is a Black Monk Rosary with silver skull beads for the Our Fathers and Nun's Crucifix with Skull and Crossbones. High Quality. Absolutely delighted with it. The customer service was very responsive to every question I had about getting exactly what I wanted.

My second purchase with Rugged Rosaries. Very pleased with my purchase. Super high quality and well constructed. Thank you!

The second I pulled it from my pocket at Mass it was recognized by one of the choir members. He knew all about these rosaries. It was very comfortable to use with my arthritic hands. As soon as stock becomes available I will buy another (WWI gunmetal).

This is my first rosary, I absolutely love it. High quality and awesome product.

This is the fourth set of rosaries I have purchased from Rugged Rosaries. They are the best, most beautiful, most durable and most unique. I have recommended them to many and I have given three as gifts. It is the only rosary I will buy!

It’s amazing get all the metals on it I get Compliments on this daily I love the feel the way that their ability it will never be broken off of me it’s so strong The only thing I have to worry about is someone strangling me with it if you need a rosary that is durable stylish and beautiful and made by hand then this is the rosary for you I would also suggest the rosary guide to those that are new it’s great has good illustration good instructions and it’s accurate this product is amazing this company is amazing will Be purchasing again from this company as now my whole family wants one

Wanted something unique, durable and beautiful. Stumbled upon this website while looking for a new rosary. This was exactly what I wanted. Highly recommend and will be purchasing more items in the future!

No complaints here. This is a beautiful product. But I'm not sure if a copy of the Monk Poem was supposed to be included in the delivery. If so, I never got it. Nevertheless, I am very content with this rosary.

I was extremely pleased with the rosary! I did forget to put in my military DD214 information for a discount. But, that is fine, I am well pleased with the rosary. May our Blessed Mother, be with each and everyone who works in your company in making these special rosaries in Her honor!

Awesome product!!!! Just bought 4 more for family!! Thank you!!

This rosary is strong and sturdy. I will order again in the future. I carrying it with me everywhere I go, and I'm also praying the rosary more than ever! Thanks for the great work on this.

I have always had many rosaries but there is something about a rugged rosary. Just by holding it, I feel it makes me confident of the Blessed Mother’s intercession.

Beautifully made but also of the finest and toughest construction. I’m delighted with my rosary and plan on buying more for my family. Just outstanding work.

I'm not afraid that this will break in my pocket, beautifully crafted, very sturdy. I also love the St. Benedict Chaplet. God Bless!!

Great rosary, very different from your traditional cross! Highly recommended!

I was very impressed with the quality of the work. Plus it’s nice to have a rosarie that a actually fits in your hand. Going to ask for a custom one next time

Overall I love this product it is exactly what I was hoping for. Great design and very well crafted. Thank you for a great rosary.

Great quality and great service! Exactly what I wanted!

The monk rosary is beautiful and looks awesome. It's great to wear. This is my third purchase and each purchase has been well constructed.

This rosary’ is beautiful and well constructed. I would highly recommend it.

The rosary I received is exactly what I was looking for. I carry a rosary with me wherever I go. I enjoy the outdoors (off road adventures in my Jeep, fly fishing, camping, hiking) and like the rest of my gear, I needed a rosary that can take a little punishment. The Black Monk Rosary, crafted with 550 paracord, will outlast me. Another advantage is the feel of the beads due to its perfect size. I recommend it highly.
