I've made my peace with marketing things as "tactical" - at least this is legitmately (and sensibly) multi-function. But making it completely black in furtherance of that tactical moniker is just plain stupid. If you need to find this thing quickly in your car, you want something like hi-viz yellow, not flat black that's going to blend right in in your car's footwell or at the bottom of a storage cubby.

The real world need for this arises after a car crash, perhaps at night, when seconds could count. Not during some sort of stealth night-op fantasy. Product description says it was designed by a NYC paramedic. Here's what a real EMT rescue tool looks like:

The sad thing is the manufacturer isn't wrong - targeted for the consumer market, they'll sell way more of these things because it's black than if it were any other color.

If you have Costco,try this, two for $18 [costco.com]. It doesn't have a blade, though the flashlight is quite good (for the price).

This is a pocket knife with a clip. It should be clipped in your pocket during an emergency (or any other time for that matter). Many first responders carry them at all times because their pockets follow their legs which many times are not inside their vehicle. Also, regardless of your car's orientation, or your orientation relative to your car, your pocket of choice should (god willing) be in a place you can find it even if you are upside down. If you cannot find your pocket you might be missing a body part or two Wink

But I do agree, I think mounted high viz escape tools are a must for every car, front and back seat. However each tool has its...very different place, literally.

I ordered from this company the last time they had a deal going. $30 knife with 50% off. The knife I received the handle was very badly scratched . I contacted customer service about about week ago and still haven't heard from them.. Would not order from them again.

majorhavoc has more validity in his point than you realize, which many won't realize unless they've actually worked mass casualty events, be it multiple car crashes involving fatalities or events far worse.
Yes, you assume this tool 'should' be easily found clipped in one's pocket, but that's not always the case in less than perfect world situ's. Many incidents are a very hectic scene involving a lot of activity, where you cut a seat belt, then drop the knife/tool on the floorboard so you can quickly grab & apply a tourniquet or start performing CPR or whatever is promptly needed.
My point is... it's not a perfect world where you'll always easily have that knife/tool in your pocket throughout the event. Priorities often interrupt or prevent you from putting it back in your pocket or your physical activity in relation to vehicles/objects at the scene can often dislodge it from your pocket.

A knife clip becomes easy to dislodge over time, with daily EDC.
Just 2 weeks ago I had a Camillus EDC clipped in my pocket that I've carried about 3 years. I knew it was there when I got into a Uber and discovered it wasn't there after I got out and was about to enter my apartment door.
I've also had one 'almost' lost walking into the woods when a thin briar branch snagged it from my pocket, without me even feeling it. If I didn't luckily hear a tiny 'thud' of something hitting the ground and discover it right then, it would have been likely lost forever.
And those 2 incidents weren't even close to the hectic action involved in any emergency or mass casualty event.

Some of the alternate tools people suggest have pretty small and awkward looking cutters.
If someone is upside down in tight belts I wouldn't want to have to fiddle with a little cutter slot
The cutter in OP is pretty maneuverable.
The sharp knife (missing on others) is a nice back-up

In an emergency, you can pull your headrests off and use the metal ends to bust a window out from inside. Quick, convenient rescue tool that is onboard your vehicle.

Thats an idea, but will it really work ? Meaning try it first to validate that it does work to get through a window from inside the vehicle. I've seen car side windows bounce a 3-4 pound river rock off again and again. I've seen perhaps a weakly swung small sledge hammer bounced by a window. Those things are tough. Validate your method first just to be sure it does work and see how much effort it takes. Then realize that with the headrest on it, swinging it underwater might be completely different than on dry land.
