PSK Paracord Bracelet 8-in-1 Personal Survival Gear Kit - Urban & Outdoors Survival Bracelet , Fire Starter, Glass Breaker, Survival Whistle, Signal Mirror, Fishing Hook, Compass

I purchased this to have a back up emergency knife. The thing is sharp and functional, so for $6 each, we have back up emergency knives and are satisfied.I also purchased this to have a wearable emergency whistle. The whistle is very loud (even a half strength blow hurt my ears) and molded into the bracelet so we can't lose it as easily as a loose one. We are happy to have wearable emergency whistles.I did not purchase this to have a functional compass. My husband and I both thought that the compasses were off, but when compared to 3 others, they are accurate enough. We consider it a bonus to have a functional compass.I did not purchase it to have functional fishing line and a hook - but they both work. I have caught a fish with a hook and dental floss before, this would also be adequate as a last resort. We consider this a bonus.I was hoping to get a functional signal mirror, but alas the mirror is so tiny that I do not believe it will be useful at all. That was a bit of a disappointment.I did not purchase this to have a functional flint and steel. It's a good thing too, because I cannot get it to work. I have several other varieties, but this one is not working.

All in all this is at a great affordable price for an emergency item that you can easily gift for any occasion. While it may not be “top of the line,” it works and we are overall satisfied with it. We like how it is adjustable so it can fit older kids and adults.For someone with arthritis or other health issues affecting the hand, I could see how it might be a little difficult to put on and lock but we do not have those issues. Nonetheless, it is adjustable so smaller people (like myself) can just slip it on if needed. However, we all found it super easy to turn the compass to lock.Details:• Fire starter works well/sparks• Knife is decent. It will cut and works in a pinch. The safety cap for it is just flimsy plastic but at least it’s something.• Signal mirror is super tiny so I’m not sure if it would be that useful.• Whistle: works and is super loud without even giving a full breath.• Compass is decent. A little off but better than nothing and gives you a really general direction.• Fishing line and hook: small but would work in a pinch (At least you’re not stuck trying w/dental floss and a line, which I’ve done lol)• Glass window breaker: Haven’t tried but it seems so tiny, so idk if it would really work.

I cannot begin to describe how cool these bracelets are! The more my boys use them the more cool things they discover. Firestarter, fishing line and hook, concealed utility knife, compass.... And I can't get over how inexpensive they were!They keep remarking how much they like them.

COMPLETELY UNSAFE! The knife does not stay latched in when out on wrist. It falls right out. Very disappointed!!

The compass is definitely not accurate. Other than that their good. Stays on securely. Nice for the price but wouldn't rely on it for survival.

Going to use them when we go camping. But would be great gifts too!!

I really like these bracelets. They are amazing. I only had one issue, I ordered a two pack one black one green. The green one I received didn’t have the flint it’s supposed to come with. Other than that these bracelets are a must have. Highly recommend.

It would not stay closed no matter what I did. That could be dangerous for someone wear it.
