Grisley thoughts, but understandable.
I once had a neighbor who fell sideways from an aluminum ladder and found himslef hanging by his wedding band. Was not a pretty sight afterwards.
Thanks for the input.
BTW, can they be used more than once, or are they use once and toss type tools?

<img src="images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />I didn't mean to ask an obvious question. I'm not overly familiar with the science behind the X-ray. I don't know what it can penetrate and what it can't. All I do know is that I have to lift my shirt when I have a x-ray <img src="images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

No problem, it was a good question. Pete

Since X-Ray is not currently on the forums, I will go ahead and answer. Yes, they can be reused many times. Pete

Must be those chain mail shirts you wear over there.

Yes the ring cutters are re useable.

Probably not a FAK item, but I have carried an extra Navy type knitted watch cap to help retain body heat. In the correct situation, it could be used as a FAK item to help someone suffering from hypothermia.
Question - Would it make sense to put a 8x8 inch (or so) piece of the mylar type emergency blanket inside the cap to help retain body heat, or would this have a negative effect on a person suffering from hypothermia?

Any thoughts?

That aluminum coating on the mylar will disrupt the mind control rays - Not a good thing to do to someone who may already be in shock. Very disorienting when you are first severed from the hive!


{quickly looks around sheepishly} OOOPSS wrong forum. Please disregard.

Also causes static on the radio signals you can pick up on your fillings.

Just received a ring cutter that I recently ordered from MEDCO.
I have never had reason to use one in the past, but it is obvious from what I have read that when you need one, YOU NEED ONE!
Good addition to the larger FAK, and no special training or license required.

Thanks.
