EDCGEAR carabiner tools, mini prybars, keyring gadgets, etc.

Don't get one. I purchased a pair through DX about five years ago. I gave one away, threw the second in my gear bag, and have never even used it. Worthless as a knife, the other functions are inconvenient, and the entire thing is hampered by having unprotected knife and saw blade edges.

Thanks guys! :smiley:

Oh-oh. Two new shapely tools at BG.

Ninja 18-in-1 tool. A joke gift? Maybe another to file under “kitten filleting”:

CRKT seat belt cutter tool:

Cat, the new pig, use everything but the Meeooow. 0:)

The elephant is kind of cute. But what is the trunk part for?

I saw this at FT today (reminds me of a Böker pry tool), 7.03 USD. It has a spike at the other end. I wonder how effective it is as a glass breaker.

Thanks, I bought the elephant as a gift for my gf.:slight_smile: The trunk is good for hanging it on the belt loops of your jeans.

I have one of those EDC Gear pry bars but I haven’t tested the glass breaker tip.

@isti242:
Is the elephant stable? It looks cute.

I ordered one of the other SRM tools (haven't arrived until now) and the bigger carabiner, which have arrived. I will post a picture in the next days.

He hasn’t attacked anyone so far. :slight_smile:

Lol

I like the Fasttech new arrival Sanrenmu GJ017D pry-bar/wrench/ruler for $4.09 indirectly linked by isti242 above.

Found it on sale at GB for $3.44

> I wonder how effective it is as a glass breaker.

Not something you want to test while hanging upside down in the seat belt between rising water and flames.

I recall reading that most cheap “glass breaker” tips are metal, which simply isn’t hard enough — they need some super hard ceramic tip to reliably break glass when there’s no time to mess around.

In this video there is a test of one tool with steel tip and it’s useless:

Wonder if they even bothered hardening the tip. I have a red hammer with hardened tip, like the ones installed on buses. I know they don’t always work on first strike though.

Excellent video showing how worthless steel tips are. You’d be dead.

Interesting video. I would like to try this myself…
on the other hand you never need to break a class from the inside, you can just use the built in window opener…

Eh? Well, probably, most of the time.
Do we feel lucky?

I have a ResQme attached to my gear lever with an ordinary rubber band, easy to snap if needed.

I was going to try out these “signal lamps” from cnq, but they said they did not have any left. Does anyone know a good place to get them or something similar?
