Gerber Seatbelt Strap Cutter with Glass Breaker, Car Escape Tool, Black

Quality brand. Quality Product.

This thing isn’t just a strap cutter—it’s a "get me the hell out of here" tool disguised as minimalist EDC. It’s compact, built like a tank, and sharp enough to make your scissors insecure. The body is metal, not plastic. Feels light but unbreakable. The finger loop? Perfect. It doesn’t slide, doesn’t spin, and you don’t have to hold it like a surgeon. Pull, slice, done. I tested it on paracord, packaging straps, and yes—even a seatbelt (calm down, it was from a junkyard). No hesitation, just clean cuts. The sheath is basic but works. You can mount it to MOLLE or keep it in a glovebox for “just in case” scenarios. It’s not bulky, and it doesn’t rattle—so it won’t give away your position when you're LARPing as Operator Actual in the aisles of Home Depot. --- ✅ Pros Crazy sharp out of the box Finger loop = no slipping, even with gloves Rugged, no-flex body feels ready for action Sheath is MOLLE-friendly Low profile, high utility --- ❌ Cons – Blade isn’t replaceable (but honestly… you won’t need to) – You’ll start looking for reasons to cut things – Doesn’t open packages gently—it liberates them --- 📢 Reviewed by Hi-Tek HQ – Real Tech. No Hype. At Hi-Tek HQ, we test gear you hope you never need—but want to count on when it matters. The Gerber Strap Cutter is exactly that.

One of my best Amazon purchases. Great for law enforcement to cut strings/ cuffs. Not sure why the green and black have such a price difference. Pretty ridiculous if you ask me but overall great to have for PO’s.

Bought this as a gift, so I never physically saw it myself. My mother has been talking about it for a while, and this was something on her Amazon wish list; she driver a Jeep Gladiator, goes to Moab, and other off-roading events. So, she was just wanting this as a safety thing. She stated she loved it, and it was exactly what she wanted. Hopefully she won't ever have to use it though. Not going to lie, bought her the Gray because it was the cheapest. She never complained about the color herself, she actually likes it. BUT, was honest with her about it. Then stated; "hey, at least the Gray will pop out in the Black interior, so you won't worry about missing it when anything happens." Which, she agreed.

The cutting edge is extremely sharp and works well. it is pretty light weight and you do not feel it when you are wearing it on a belt. Skin and fingers seem well protected when using the cutter. It is easy to remove from the sheath. The feel in the hand is nice and I think that it will feel a little better after the plastic coating breaks in a bit. The sheath has a fairly positive grip on the cutter but the mounting options could use some refinement. I will be creating my own mounting option. The color is nice. Pretty dark.

I work as a Detention Officer in a Mental Health Unit where we have Inmates who sometimes tie sheets, trash bags, towels and other things around their necks in a suicide attempt. I have used this tool to cut as said items many times and the tool, straight out of the packaging, is really sharp. The Gerber Strap Cutter has not failed me once and I keep it on my duty belt for easy access. It's small enough to carry on my side to where it's not easily accessible to Inmate. Another way I have used this tool is to cut off Inmate clothes and it has not snagged up when cutting. I highly recommend this Strap Cutter for anyone who works in the same environment as I do.

Perfect for law enforcement officers

Awesome

Just what I needed for a safety line cutter knife for kiteboarding. The sheath is snug enough, but I used some electrical tape to make sure it doesn't slip out accidentally.

Magnifico para el chaleco

Perfect for work. Cuts through easily with a good tug. Not tried the window breaker yet though!

More than great

se siente de buen material, no he probado ni el cortador ni el rompe cristales, afortunadamente, pero es de esas cosas que mas vale tener a mano. la funda se siente de plastico barato pero funciona.
