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.
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.
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

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 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?

Search turns up mention of plans that, I think, never went anywhere:

The more a tool try to do multiple things the more it become bad at everything…
