5.0 out of 5 stars Give the gift of safety August 18, 2009
I ordered these for myself and my husband as a precautionary safety tool. We live near water and have a fear of possibly driving into the water and becoming trapped. A few months after purchasing them I used mine at the scene of an auto accident when the driver and passenger were trapped and couldn't unlock the doors. I was able to break the back window EASILY and unlock the door. You literally just need to tap the glass and it shatters.

I am now ordering the 2 pack to give as Christmas gifts with hopes that they are never needed.

5.0 out of 5 stars Better To Have And Not Need - Highly Recommended! December 10, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase
We bought three of these LifeHammer "Emergency Hammers" after watching the "Mythbusters" episodes on escaping from a sinking car. We live in the mountains with a lot winding roads, often with water at the bottom, and these Hammers seem like a worthwhile and prudent precaution. Here are my observations:

+ Colorful; bright orange makes it easy to see
+ Very Pointy; both hammer ends are very pointy and I don't doubt at all that they could break a car side window
+ Sharp Seatbelt Cutter; well protected so you can't get your fingers in it, tested with a ribbon and it cut easily
+ Plastic Holder; works surprisingly well to cover the pointy bits and is east to remove quickly

As my title says, it is better to have and not need than to need and not have.

Highly Recommended! Here is the single on we also bought LifeHammer Orange Original Emergency Hammer

5.0 out of 5 stars I hope never to use it, but I am SO glad I have it January 4, 2010
This item gives such peace of mind! I think every car should be equipped with one. The Life Hammer has a tool to break auto glass, and near the base of the handle is a tool to cut seat belts. It is supposed to be mounted within reach of the driver, and that is my one small complaint - the shape of the hammer's container makes it hard to mount as the directions suggest. I have mine in my glovebox, which is still easily accessible and gets rid of the mounting issue. Apart from that, it's a very well designed tool and I'm thankful someone came up with it!

5.0 out of 5 stars Everyone should have December 25, 2010
By JimG
Amazon Verified Purchase
Hope I never have to use and I live in the desert, but even here we have canals that people have accidentally driven into and drowned plus flash floods that too many people do not know how to deal with.

One quibble, they come with hard plastic holders that I assume are to be attached to something. But it is very hard to remove the Life Hammer from the hard plastic and in my vehicle there isn't a good place near the driver to attach the things. And just putting them in the console or glove box can leave them hard to find or covered with other stuff.

Seems to me it would have been much better and more useful to have Velcro as the attachment. A pieced of Velcro could be glued to the side of the console and a strip of Velcro on the Life Hammer would have put it in close proximity to the driver and easy to grab in an emergency.

Still I highly recommend that everyone get one. Highly recommend watching the Mythbusters episode so you will know why and how to survive an emergency that we all hope never occurs.

4.0 out of 5 stars Life Hammer August 27, 2008
Amazon Verified Purchase
This is one Item I hope never gets use. The designers really thought this out. I bought one for my teen daughters car. I have always worried of the remote possibility she would have the unfortunate luck of driving into a river, off a bridge or get into an accident where she rolled the car and couldn't get out the door or is pinned by the seat belt while the care is starts to burn. How bad would I feel if she was trapped inside and didn't have any tool to get out. It is just one of those worry's a parent deals with so why not spend a few bucks to at least give a loved one a chance?...I think it's worth the 1 in a million chance...

5.0 out of 5 stars AWESOMEAWESOMEAWESOME January 3, 2012
By Jakob

these look GREAT when mounted, and have been mounted for 6 months with stuff occasionally bumping them without falling off the side of my truck. the glow in the dark nub is removable thankfully, as the orange color is enough to find them in the dark. I tested these at the junkyard to see if they would "actually" work (i was skeptical) and my hand fell through the window after it, it took so little pressure. my girlfriend didnt even know I had broken it myself, since she was looking away and only saw the aftermath. I feel very re=assured with these next to me in my truck, and will buy them for any other vehicle I ever own, without a doubt.

3.0 out of 5 stars Buyer Beware December 8, 2012
Amazon Verified Purchase
Aftter purchasing several for my family for their safety, saw a news report that they dont and WILL NOT BREAK GLASS. Due to new safety guidelines for cars - all car manufacturers have made the glass in all vehicles unbreakable to protect the passenger - they tested all types of these escape hammers as well as the smaller push button impact and neither the windshield, sunroof or side glass would break. So dont drive off into a canal or water because hammer will not work!

4.0 out of 5 stars one of the best "just in case" items in my jeep March 9, 2013
By TJ
Amazon Verified Purchase
was driving to work one day and witnessed a very bad accident. i pulled off the road to help. ended up having to pull the driver out of the car due to his car being on fire and his hip and leg broken. All 4 doors were locked, and had a hard time finding something around to break the windows. The second I got to work I ordered these for my jeep and girlfriends car. throw in your center console, glove box, door slot. or mount it to a hard surface with screws. Will not velcro or sticky tape due to the curvature of the back mount.
