I just reviewed another cool product from Survival Hax. This tactical pen is my favorite product so far (and my boy really liked the survival kit.
I was looking for a pen I could take to work, but this one just won’t make into the prison I work at. It is easily considered a weapon.
Its sturdy construction, the titanium glass breaker tip, and the hidden fire starter all make this inappropriate for use in a controlled facility. – however, this hard core pen is very useful.
I keep it hanging on my rear view mirror. If I get in a wreck it can help save my life by breaking the safety glass – and if I get attacked the solid construction and sharp tip can easily be used to protect my life – It gets additional points for being a simple pen.
This 4 in 1 tactical pen is a great product and I am glad survival hax gave me the opportunity to review it.
This is a pretty cool little EDC Keychain from Survival Hax. I have reviewed some of there stuff before, and it is perfect for the budget prepper.
The keychain is a simple paracord weave that you can unravel to get a lenght of cord, it has a whistle and an easy to use carabiner to attach it to your gear (my plan is to clip it to the rifle sling of my M6 Scout Survival Rifle.
I really like the contents of the survival kit – the knife is pretty cool and its always nice to have a means to start a fire.
The kit has:
Fishing line
Hooks
Weights
Floaters
Sinkers
Swivels
Eye knife
Cotton tinder
Fire starter rod
Safety pins
Wire saw
With this kit and a nice rifle I could make myself comfortable for an extended stay in the woods. It is a pretty decent set up that is light and small enough to go on all of your outdoor adventures and at under $15.00 its a steal.
I have to say while I did get this keychain for free in order to do a review, I am planning on buying another to go on my the sling of my son’s cricket rifle. (not that he will be outdoors alone, but so he and Daddy can match.
This is an introductory video for some jigs from Speedy Jig. The jigs are high quality steel and powder-coated to last.
I was extremely pleased when they asked me to review these devices as I was planning on making my own bracelet jig, but I did not want to mess around with wood designs.
I would just make a video showing how to use these two awesome jigs.
However, my my son made me promise to wait for him so he could make a sling for his toy gun.
I below is a video showing how to make a paracord bracelet later and use the jig to make a monkey fist pretty soon also.

These kits are complete. Additionally, they include enough materials to make a couple different projects. I love how the jigs are designed to last and how easy they are to use.
Both kits are adjustable and can make large or small projects.
I can’t wait to make a monkey fist large enough to launch out of my black powder cannon.
With this kit you can easily make small key chain monkey-fists up to using a billiard ball as a center.
You should really look into these affordable jigs.
How to Make a Paracord Bracelet with the Speedy Jig

I have made this type of knot without the jig, as well as experimented with making my own jig, but this is by far the easiest method I have found. Add to it that the jig is very high quality, comes with very clear pictorial instructions, and has enough materials to make several bracelets for a very reasonable price and the speedy jig is a great tool to have in your home.
My son loves his red bracelet – he had to wear it to school for show and tell. He now wants to make more. More importantly than his liking his bracelet he liked making a paracord bracelet. We did it together, we played and goofed around, and made something useful and functional.
We could have done this without a jig, or we could have made our own jig. But balance the cost and the ease of use, and this jig really was worth it.
I have wanted a pocket chainsaw since I was a boy, It would be simple enough to buy one, but it seems I never got a round tuit, that is until Sumpri offered me a chance to review their folding pocket chainsaw and fire starter kit.
I had great plans to take this chainsaw out and throw a line over a high tree limb and use the saw with some paracord – unfortunately, when I got out to the land it started raining, and I got my truck stuck in the mud.
While a pocket chainsaw is great for a lot of things, I couldn’t use it to get unstuck (well I guess I could have cut limbs to make a timber winch or to throw under the tires). I decided to wait on the video and focus on what was important now – which was recovering my truck from the mud.
The saw was well made, and it was sharp. I found that it pulled easily (better with long strokes) and cut smoothly. The firestarter is a typical ferocerium rod – it creates hot sparks and is of normal quality. I do wish the case was a little stronger, but it was above average for these types of gear.
I have reviewed several of these Jastek Multi Charging cables, at this point I do it just so I can get another set. I love them. I have one next to the be, in the laptop bag, in the truck, and at work. The Aluminum Multi Charging Cable shown here, is my favorite.
The aluminum skin makes this charger sturdy, I also lover how it looks.

4-in-1 Multi-function Charger Cable: 1x USB C Cable + 1x Micro USB Cables + 2x 8pin cable(not MFI certificated)

►► Multi Cable WARRANTY:One Year Replacement Warranty.All the phones and tablets in the listing photo not included
As I said, I really like this multi charging cable, the aluminum sheath really makes it look nice, plus it seems to give the cable some strength. I use this as my go to travel cable.
