When going on a long self-driving trip, besides the basic tools that come with the vehicle, it’s always nice to have a handy “weapon” that can bring us a sense of security for emergencies in extreme situations – especially the kind that you “hope you never have to use, but must have when needed”.
1. Leatherman Raptor Tactical Scissors: These are great scissors that can cut everything from bandages and gauze to thin iron sheets. Cutting soda cans is a piece of cake for them. They come with a window-breaking spike and a seatbelt cutter. Usually, I’ll put them in a position within easy reach in my car.
2. Victorinox Rescue Tool Multi-functional Folding Knife: The Victorinox Swiss Army Knife is a classic model that has withstood the test of decades. It’s a must-have for outdoor hiking and self-driving trips. It has a saw, flathead and Phillips screwdrivers, tweezers, and a bottle opener. The excellent main blade is sharp and rust-resistant. The handle that glows in the dark is very noticeable in dim environments. You won’t panic even if you drop it into the gap between the car seats at night.
3. Leatherman Charge Tool Pliers: Those who know about tool pliers will understand. It has the top reputation among plier tools, reaching the level of being used for bomb disposal.
There’s no doubt about the quality of these three tools. There’s no superiority or inferiority among them when compared. It just depends on your usage scenarios and personal habits. The only things that make people hesitate are the price and authenticity.
