SE 5-in-1 Survival Whistle- 4 Pack

I must compliment the seller on the fast shipping and good pkging. BUT, this is about the product. I'd heard about the pea sticking in the whistle, and...they were right. You can't blow it at all without the over sized plastic pea sticking and making the inital weak whistling come to a complete stop. I wouldn't rely on the whistle at all in a survival situation!! That's why I carry at least 2 of the tiny fox howlers with me. I was surpriced to find the compass actually worked! Not pin point accurate of course, but it would get you in the general area you were aiming for. Has a rubber o-ring seal around the storage compartment lid. I tested it with some paper inside, it didn't leak in the short time I held it underwater. So I would think it's pretty water resistant, not sure if it's water proof for long periods of underwater submerging however. The cordage is cheap nylon and literally pulls apart if you try to tie a knot...I replaced it. The plastic will probably crack if you drop it. It's that hard plastic which is easy to break, not like the softer plastic on Coleman's match containers. If you do drop it, it's orange and you'll be able to find it. The tiny flint on the side isn't worth trying to strike...you'll tear up the plastic container. The signal mirror inside the lid is good enough to look at an eye if you have something in it, but as a SIGNAL mirror...way too small! I did like the large compartment area. I measured out a 2 1/2" x 15" long piece of white paper, arranged my 4 small fish hooks, 2 leaders, 3 small eye-screws swivels, 12' of fishing line, 3 split shot sinkers and couple plastic lures on it. Covered it with same amount of clear packing tape, then rolled it up into a tube and slipped it inside the compartment. I even had room in the center of the rolled up tube, to place some power bait pellets, extra line and a small foam bobber. I bought it with the full intent of making it into a tiny emergency back up fishing kit to toss into my backpack or glove compartment of my car. It works for that purpose quite well. I intend on making one for each of my 3 grandsons. Don't buy this for a survival kit and don't count on it as such!
