resqme 2-pack car escape tool – red
Quick escape tools to keep on your keys
Small but remarkably handy, these resqme tools are designed to be with you at all times. The 2-pack gives you two compact, keyring-ready devices that combine a protected razor blade for cutting stuck seatbelts and a spring-loaded spike for smashing tempered side windows. Originally developed for firefighters and paramedics, this clever bit of kit has become a sensible, everyday safety item for drivers and passengers alike.
Why keep one on your keys?
In a collision, you won’t have time to faff about. The cutter hooks over a jammed belt and slices through quickly and cleanly, while the window breaker is pressed into the corner of a tempered side window and releases a spike to shatter the glass. It’s dead simple to use, fast, and built for situations where every second matters.
- Trusted design: made in the USA and GS TÜV certified.
- Dual function: seatbelt cutter and spring-loaded window breaker in one.
- Compact and lightweight: clips to a keyring so it’s always with you.
- Reusable: the spring-loaded spike resets automatically; the blade will perform multiple cuts.
- Durable materials: ABS plastic body with a stainless-steel blade and steel spike for reliable performance.
Practical notes and use cases
The breaker works on tempered side windows (that covers most door glass and many sunroofs). It won’t shatter laminated windscreens. If you’re unsure which glass your car has, look for a small ‘tempered’ stamp in the corner, or roll the window down and check from above — tempered glass usually sits as a single, smooth pane. Typical situations where a resqme can help include collisions that trap doors, shallow water submersion, doors that jam after impact, or assisting a passenger who’s injured and can’t release their belt.
How to use
1. Pull the unit away from its clip to reveal the protected blade; hook it over the seatbelt and slice across to free the occupant.
2. To break a window, press the black head into the corner of a tempered side window — the spike will release and shatter the glass.
3. The spike resets automatically for further use and the blade stays covered until pulled out, so it’s safe to carry on your keys.
Small things to know
The clip is detachable for quicker access to the blade and for fitting to a keyring or lanyard. It can feel a tad stiff at first — loop a keyring or cable tie around the clip for extra grip and pull firmly. Accessories such as lanyards and premium packs are sold separately under the same ASINs. The tool floats and is light enough that you’ll barely notice it on your keys.
