Review on πŸ”¨ Swiss Safe 5-in-1 Car Safety Hammer: Unbeatable Emergency Escape Tool, Window Breaker, Seatbelt Cutter - Orange (2 Pack) by Justin Live

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Good and bad for very different reasons.

Okay the reason you might need this item is because your car got into (deep) water or had a serious accident/car fire without turning on the water and you don't sit down , the seat belt is unfastened/and/or the door is open (glass breaks). As a retired traffic cop with several thousand traffic accidents; I've never had a single instance where this item was useful let alone saved your life. Until you find it; Most likely stowed in the glove box or center console, you could unbuckle your seat belt. It is VERY difficult to break a window. Yes, it's easier with a sharp end on the head of this object, but I hit the side windows a dozen times with a "baton" and tried to get the criminal out of the car without breaking the glass. Can it save your life? ? Well, I don't want to say it. This is possible in certain circumstances, but just like with guns, if you don't have one handy and don't practice with it, you're likely to panic. 99.99% of people will never exercise or have it on hand when needed. It's very well made, highly visible (bright colour) and comes with a bracket if you want to screw it into your expensive Lexus interior! I assume that the holder is a commercial vehicle. .So after 35+ years I decided to stop rationalizing this fear, gave up and bought it. They were cheap for a pair, so they were in every car now. Now I feel safer! I gave them one star because I think the actual intended use is correct.

Pros
  • Fits me perfectly
Cons
  • No instructions
