There were a few spots on the board I could have put this thread but decided this was the best spot. This type of tool is often found with first-reponders and should be part of/close to the vehicles FAK/safety gear. In my case it goes right in the glove compartment.

Some different types of this rescue tool:





A very inexpensive item that could literally save a life. I have an extra one now that we sold our mini-van. Wouldn't be a bad idea to have one of these in my EDC sling bag now that I'm thinking about it.

Still carry in the cars the tool I use to carry while working.... spring loaded center punch.
Great for windows without an over large mess ( like when smashed )

I like those Tom. Very compact, easy to carry and really work well.

I ordered a three-pack of the orange ones I listed above. I already had several but wanted to get a few more. Figured (without the plastic bracket) it was small, flat and light enough to toss one in my EDC Maxpedition Lunada. I've come upon or seen multiple vehicle accidents over the years and figured it would be a handy tool to have on hand.

Three-pack was $10.50 on Amazon.
