Go Retire Psychiatrist

I just found out how hard it is to remove that blade guard from the RESQME car escape tool. You can’t waste time busting a gut trying to pull that out when you’re about to drown while your car is sinking in a flood. You might need the blade to cut your seat belt.

That’s where the key ring comes in. It’s included with the kit. You attach the key ring to the end of the blade guard and that gives you a better grip to pull it out.

You can find many other videos about how to use it. But if you need to free yourself from a jammed seat belt, you’ll have a really tough time if you can’t pull the blade guard off.

There’s also a cable tie included, presumably for the same reason.
