Essential Safety Tool For Your Car

Excellent product and price. To understand how to use this tool, watch the Mythbusters episode about how to escape a car crash in water. They demo a similar tool. If you drive near or over water on a regular basis, I recommend this as an essential safety tool for your car. Now that most cars have electronic (not manual) windows, I think this is even more necessary since it really is the only way to get through a window if the electronics fail. You get two tools.

Solid tool that you hope you never have to use.

Thankfully I have not had to use this tool, but I found this tool to be solidly built and provides peace of mind. I keep this handy tool in my middle console cubby. The primary reason for buying this was because I was concerned about the seat belts on my child's seat. Imagine having to reach around a rear facing seat and trying to undo the center harness buckle on a child seat. This would provide a much better access in emergency situations. With protected blade for cutting seat belt and solid feel to the hammer, I'm sure this tool will stand up to the challenge if I ever need to use it. Also with today's electric windows, if ever in a submerged situation, this would really be the only reasonable way to quickly break the window to equalize the water pressure for escape.

Cool hammer to smash your car window, should you ever need to evacuate your vehicle by window

Product arrived on time. Never have used it - and that is my intention! But, should i ever need to, the hammer is solid enough to smash a window. Maybe i'll go to a pick n pull one day and secretly bring my hammer along and smash a window. See if it goes on the first swing. I have it lying loose in my glove box. I haven't really figured out a place to attach it. But should you ever be in an accident and the car rolls and you end up in water....i don't know if the hammer would continue to sit snuggly in its holder. I think it might come out during all that. So, i keep it in the glove box. Its funny, here in the USA, these items are never mentioned/ never even raised an eye for. In Europe, these are mandatory, and each car must have one.

Crash Salvation

All the stories of people belted in their cars and burning-up after a crash, sinking in water, and others are definitely good reason to keep these handy in your vehicle. BELTS CAN JAM SOLID!! After an impact and your body weight hurled with G forces the things can be damaged and jam and no amount of clawing at them will release them. Also good if you're hanging in the belt (overturned) because your weight will jam the buckle. Keep this tool WITHIN REACH and secure so it doesn't get EJECTED in a crash! The window-breaker is also useful if the glass won't go down for any reason, trapping you in the car. The nightmare scenario of sinking in water comes to mind. DO NOT MAKE THE MISTAKE MANY DO AND HIT THE CENTER OF THE WINDOW!!! That's its strongest point. Give it a good hit nearer the lower corners or along the edge at the frame. IF YOU'RE IN WATER be sure you turn you face away, the glass can come in with great force and riddle your face and eyes. Just hit the glass with the pointed part of the hammerhead and swing like you're hitting a home run.

Better to have it and not need it

No issues about quality control like other reviews said and I bought 3. I gave 2 away as gifts as my sister and brother in law were involved in an accident that wasnt there fault that could have ended badly. I'm the type of guy that prefers to have it and not need it than to need it and not have it. I hope if the time ever comes this will help save lives and do it's purpose. Looks sturdy from the feel of it, never used it and hope I never have to.

You need one of these for every car!

After being in a rollover accident and temporarily stuck in my seatbelt with one of the doors unable to open I decided that everyone of my friends and family members needed one of these. Seconds save lives, and let me tell you being upside down in a car with a seatbelt that is not releasing is not a fun experience. Throw on top of that doors that won't open and it quickly becomes a nightmare situation. These guys are sturdy, but small. Put one in every car you own so that if the unfortunate happens you are prepared. They are designed such that the razor blade is impossible to get at with bare hands, and the impact piece for the windshield breaker has a rubber covering over it for safety. This is a no-brainer purchase. Don't even think of leaving this page without buying it, because you never know when you just might need it the most!

Life Saver

I purchased this tool expecting to never need to use it. I was wrong shortly after purchasing my neighbor knocked on my door in a panic that her young daughter was being chocked by the seatbelt in her car. The belt would not retract and kept tightening tighter as she moved. I used the tool to cut the seat belt to release her and it cut through the seatbelt with minimal pressure needing to be applied. I purchased additional tools and gave them to my children to place in their cars in case a similar incident should occur with our grandchildren or other emergencies. It truly is a life saving tool.

Tried and true!!

My son's car flipped upside down and he used it to cut his friend who was hanging upside down out of his seatbelt. When he got home from the hospital at 4am, sat down, went on Amazon, and ordered a dozen of this same one he used for everyone in my family for Christmas!!

Cheap piece of insurance.

It's a great peace of mind tool to have in your car. I lost a friend of mine that got swept away in heavy flooding because he couldn't get out of his car. If he had this tool, he could have easily broken the window to get out since his power locks quit working due to the water. I have one in my truck and one in my wife's Suburban. Its one of those things that you hope you never have to use, but you're glad you have it with you. We keep ours in the center console. That way, if the vehicle wrecks, the tool doesn't go flying through the car to where you can't find it. It is only about 7" long, and it has a smooth metal head on one side, and one very sharp pointed head on the other end. They feel kind of cheap, but they will surely do the job. I've gotten some of these for gifts for family.

... my husband thought we'd never need to use anything like this. Well

I purchased 3 of these as Christmas gifts and my husband thought we'd never need to use anything like this. Well, following a long car ride and a restless child -by the time we arrived she had managed to tangle herself up in her seat belt so tightly we could not get her out. She kept changing position and tried to use it as a hammock at one point. Anyway, we pulled out the extra length of seat belt and then let go of it without thinking to try something else and the belt tightened even more; she was beginning to panic and this was the tool my husband reached for and it worked great! Cut easily and safely through the belt. My mother-in-law now wants one for her car, too!
