Not a deal but a cool new product and would make great gifts. I'm not sure if there are any coupons going on right now. However, as the wise latin gas station sage told Sarah Connor at the end of Terminator 1...."storm's coming"

Nearly exact. The Amazon one you posted is $15 higher and has a coated spork. The HB version has an extra whistle that doubles as a spork knife cover.

Why? They don't manufacture it-they buy from the same guys that sell to premium brands. Unless it plugs into the wall, it's safe to buy from Harbor Freight.
aint no premium brand rebranding this as quality. this is getting rebranded by companies like remington or stanley... equally as garbage.

harbor freignt has its place, and i own plenty of HF tools, but my survival kit consists of separately purchased quality tools because if i need to count on them, i need them to work.

Soooo, if you want to save some money... you need a candle, a bottle of water, a bag of candy, and some kitty litter. These are the things I was taught you need for surviving in your car. This kit seems useless for your car (with regards to the OP title). This could be useful to take up some space on a camping trip, but it's a lot of garbage you don't really need.

This reeks of "what do we get dad" "dad likes harbor freight" "dad will like this" "happy/merry/whatever dad". I think HF has come a long way but this ain't one of their winners.

I don't think this is the survival kit you're going to carry if there's any realistic chance that you would need one.

Anyone know what the telescoping rod is between wrist compass and ferry rod?

An expandable baton? Fishing rod? Antenna for space aliens? It's not described in specs.

It's basically a telescoping metal straw. I think it's listed in the product description as a "bellows". The idea is it makes it slightly easier to blow on embers to assist in kindlng a flame.

Like the survival spork, tactical pen, and water bottle clip, it's BS mall ninja crap. To the extent it has any marginal utility, it is so far down the list of sensible survival items that were completely left out of this kit, it's inclusion is a sad joke.

Lol, comments didn't disappoint. Armchair Rambos are en force. This is a fun thing to throw in the trunk and forget about it. Bottle opener and card shaped opener will get the most use in this kit.

"Flint" fire starters always crack me up. They are fun to play with yes, but in any REAL potential survival situation, just carry a few extra bic (or mini bic) lighters, and/or matches. If the knife is of decent quality this isn't a bad set to add stuff to.
It's not about actual survival, it's about the fun factor of imagining that you'll be prepared in a dire situation. Let's be honest, a fire extinguisher is more likely to save your life, but not nearly as "fun."

Excuse me but I'm sitting in a Tactical Armchair thank you very much.
