Gerber gear offers a selection of knives, flashlights, belts, and other survival tools for the outdoorsman. We purchased a small variety of Gerber survival tools, and put them to the test with our own weekend warriors, our three Boy Scouts. The rules were simple. They could select any of the products that wanted but had to write about their impressions.
Each week, we’ll feature a new Gerber product review written by one of the Scouts.
The Bear Grylls Survival Lanyard has six feet of paracord and an emergency whistle. It easily attaches to packs, keychains, etc.
I like how you can attach it to your gear to take it with you on trips. Having paracord is good because it is a very useful survival tool. I also like the emergency whistle and the orange color, because both make this lanyard a bit helpful for rescue purposes. I don’t like how it only has six feet of paracord.
