I'll bet it hurts when it gets pulled off.

Very true. My cell phone screen has an indicator which tells me how good my signaling is. When I have good signaling, I can call for help! :DQuote:

under the 550 cord is two hollow parts and in them is a lighter and a small sharp knife. Under the edge of the 550 is a very good whistle. Added weight is about 5 ounces or less. I have one for each of my 7 grandkids basically the same only shorter and taller. yu can figure out what to use the items for.

Thought to add one that will carry nicely to your packs or backs.
Backtag holder
-offers an extra virtually waterproof pocket with few mods
-giant safety pin for larger tarp or fabric repair
- Identification/map holder
- meat skewer for open fire cooking
- inconspicuouse last resort weapon
- good eye guide for hand lines
- quick release for a pull up rope clip
Geeze I'm almost intimidated to post this after so much has been covered here alredy.
Great list of uncommon uses for those items guys! Now how about some combinations of the items listed? Here's some examples:
1. condom and a long tube sock make a more resilient water container than a condom alone.
2. duct tape in combination with paracord will make a great sling (duct tape used for the rock holder).
3. Knife, Paracord, and walking stick make a field-expedient spear
4. etc... (I think you get the point)
Any thoughts?

Could fit easily onto the outside of your BOB pack as a spare...
I thought I'd let everyone know that if you have a Coleman propane lantern the Bernzomatic propane cylinders will fit them. It might be a bit intuitive but you might not think about them if something happens. The threads are the same.
