Maybe it is already here and it is so stealthy I don't know.....
But until it reveals itself I am going to have to say no, it is not here.
Or is it..... :ahhh

Could be....Be sure to get some flashbangs for that!
But I am doing tactical room entries every time to go to the washroom to make sure I am not taken unaware.

So, will you be selling or giving away your other, obsolete, multitools ?:rofl:

Like dks said, AA batteries. I have a bunch of flashlights in exactly that style(-branding) and they take AA. There must be a factory making these by the million, very decent throw and brightness for 4 euros. :D
They go by Cree Zoomable on the bay.

And why will megan drown if you use the fire starter in the house? :ahhh

Nice review and I have no doubts about the qualities of the kit (more like the lack thereof) but aren't you a little unfair to the OPT? Surely the 1:100000 makes at least a little sense together with the compass since it is a common scale on maps?
What a guy who can't figure out the replace cm with km in his mind is going to do if he finds himself with a map with another scale is anyone's guess though.
Ever since starting this thread I have been seeing Stealth Angel ads on the forum.Switch hands once in a while, it'll balance it out ;)
I have perfect indents of my fingers in my forehead from the sheer volume of facepalms I have done since this thing arrived. :facepalm:

All too handy bottles of alcohol, credit cards and late night web surfing really don't mix.I agree with you. I'm skeptical and don't hold much hope for an entire "survival" kit that costs $20.
IN this particular instance I decided to check out the Stealth Angel Survival Kit, which claims to have over 1000 uses.
https://www.stealthangelsurvival.com/products/compact-tactical-kit
I am more than a little skeptical about it, but I thought for $20 I would give it a shot to see just how bad it is. I mean, I have the Fauxton (I bought I think 30 of them for $10), I have the idiotic "multitool card" and the whistle is the same whistle I got for my Nephew Survival Packs at Christmas, so I know first hand that most of it (if not all) is junk, but I was still curious.
I'll report back when it arrives, but in the meantime I thought you all might appreciate a laugh at it's "$69.99 Regular Price."
It's a $20 joke, but absolutely not a 70 joke.... :facepalm:

The kit starts off with a plastic box, with plastic hinge on one side and clips on the other three. I can't imagine these hinges will hold for too many openings/closings, but with clips on three sides, it might still be useful after they break. At least until the clips break off too. :facepalm:

Open the box and you find the following:

1x Firestarter & one piece multitool
1x Whistle
1x Fauxton light
1x Tactical flashlight
1x Compass
1x Tactical pen
1x Multitool card
Where to start?

The Firestarter kciks off a good spark, but don't Tell Megan because I fired it off in the house and she tends to drown on such things. It's hard to screw that one up, so power to them on that one.

The one piece multitool is phenomenally special in ways that I was not expecting. It has a 1/4" driver and a cutout on the end, supposedly for use on the fire steel, but I have no idea how well that works as I used the Sync II on it instead. You see, this small one piece tool is like none other- on one side it has a small ruler that goes from 0 to 50mm, and on the other it has a ruler that measures from 0 to 5km.
(http://gallery.multitool.org/var/resizes/No-Names-and-Cheapos/Stealth-Angel-Tactical-Survival-Kit/20170327_134002.jpg?m=1490639066)
Yup, you read that right, 5 kilometers. For those of you that don't know how big a kilometer is, it is roughly about three miles. On small tool that fits in your pocket or on your keys. How does it do this? Simple.... the 5km ruler is 1:100,000 scale, so all you need to do is measure something with it and multiply it by 100,000 and you have exactly the size you need. :facepalm:
Just take a moment to absorb that a little.... take your time, I'll wait.......
Ready?
Ok, let's move on then.

Next up we have the whistle, which is exactly the same whistle that I got for my nephews for Christmas (https://forum.multitool.org/index.php/topic,69716.0.html)- they are functional but are also super cheap. I think they cost me about $1 each. Nothing special there, but it works.

Ditto for the Fauxton Light. Like the billions of copies before it, and the billions of copies to come, it is cheap, bright and functional. And cheap.

Then there's the flashlight- it's a small LED tactical light with the impact bezel and a bright orange clicky tail cap and pocket clip. Totally ninja approved, except that I have no idea whether it works or not since there was no battery included with it, and I am not sure what batteries it takes. I am guessing it's CR123, but 'll have to dig some batteries out and check- since they also included no documentation to let you know what batteries it should take.

Then there's the compass.

I don't think I'd be wanting to trust my well being, or that of anyone I care about to this thing, since it seems to have varying opinions as to which way North is. Maybe I'm just being old fashioned, in this modern day of gathering multiple viewpoints, but this is just not a quality I appreciate in a compass. After all, between this compass' vague directions and the amazing distance measurements of the multitool, one could find themselves wishing they'd taken that left turn in Albuquerque. :facepalm:

If you should find yourself in the wrong place as a result of these wonderful included navigational aids, you may want to write someone a nasty note-and this is where the Stealth Angel kit may come in handy. Not only can you use the tactical pen to write them a nasty note, you can also save on postage by using the glass breaker to deliver the note to their desk without needing a stamp. But, being as cheap as it is, I would stick to thin glass with this thing as it is just as likely to shatter itself as the glass.

Last but not least (least would be quite an accomplishment with a kit like this) is the multitool card.

This one is well documented here on the forum in various places (https://forum.multitool.org/index.php/topic,66326.0.html).

All in all I don't see this thing as being worth $10, let alone the $20 this particular idiot sunk into it. Instead, get yourself a nice Otter Box and add in a few of your own items, such as, oh, I dunno, a compass that actually knows what direction is north? You'll thank me for it if you ever need to use it....

I just got an email from the folks at Stealth Angel asking me to review this product for them. The title of my review was "hahahahahaha" and the body of it consisted of a link to this thread.Did you read some of the other reviews?

Quality
From the moment I removed it from the package, I noticed the quality. I wish I would have had access to your products while I was still on active duty, I would have been the envy of my flight crew. the pen..awesome...flashlight...awesome, and bright. the other items just as high a quality as the rest. I have many friends at the Riviera Bch VA. I do have one issue with your products.......I'm gonna go broke around Christmas.......Thanks!! Quality! AMS1 DA Kratz (ret) US NAVY
I've made a joke before that if you look on Amazon, any product with enough reviews will inevitably have 1-star reviews. I think, to date, one of the absolutely best rated products I've ever seen is the Morakniv Companion, but even it has some 1-star reviews.
Any product with over, say, 1000 reviews and not a single 1-star, that's BS.
A customer put a 1 star review on Amazon for the 'Innova Shark' disc golf disc... "lost it on first throw--went hard right into grout pile--down 6 foot hole disappeared". So... how does your crappy throwing make the PRODUCT bad?
We have a joke about amazon reviews amongst my friends. If you found gold selling for $1 per ounce, there would be a 1-star review that read 'This is too heavy'.
Cutting out the bad reviews on their products is crap, and makes them con artists, IMO.
