    Not according to Samson:

    FWIW, I have the green, and it is decidedly non-neon.

    Is there a reason you need neon green specifically? For instance, if it's for visibility, I think dutch sells some with a reflective tracer in it now.

    As others have mentioned, sorry no neon green 7/64 amsteel. However, there is green dynaglide which is a neon-ish green. Be sure to do proper research if dynaglide will work for you (your weight vs dynaglide strength, etc..). Some use it in suspensions (not me personally), others claim you'll die if you use it ;-)

    The only neon colors I have ever seen are in the dynaglide lines. The intensity of the color does vary a little from roll to roll but the green is usually pretty intense. As mentioned be sure of its suitability for you as a suspension.

    You could go with the Dark Green. By the time your done splicing, most of the color will have rubbed off leaving you with a soothing pastel.

    I have given up on colorful Amsteel. I use only the Silver/Grey.

    I think the thread and the ridgeline in neon will work, I'm also considering using the neon on the black suspension strap.

    That would look pretty sharp IMO.
