Concealed inside the buckle is a non-metallic cuff key to escape illegal restraints or used as a backup key for security professionals. The Kevlar cordage is a praised tool in scenarios requiring escape from obstacles like flex-cuffs and rope. Additional tools allow for fire starting, navigating to rally points, repairing gear, saw thru iron bars, and more.
