Emergency whistles: life-saving tools you hope you'll never to need
You carry an emergency whistle mainly for emergencies, to raise the alarm. For example during dangerous situations while hiking, or when something happens on the street. It allows you to attract attention. Emergency whistles are able to produce an enormous amount of noise, sometimes even up to 120 dB! That's as loud as a jet aircraft at a 30-metre distance. Incredibly loud.

How do you choose an emergency whistle?
There are many kinds of emergency whistle. They are available in a variety of materials. Made of titanium, for example, or stainless steel. Of course, titanium whistles are the premium choice. They're often more lightweight than the stainless versions.
There are also emergency whistles that can produce more than one pitch. As a result, you'd be able to attract even more attention and be noticed sooner.
Also consider how you'll be carrying your emergency whistle. Many people choose to attach one to their bunch of keys. Others add it to the pull tab of their zip.
Moreover, emergency whistles are available in a variety of colours. Sometimes manufacturers release an emergency whistle anodised in striking colours. This makes it even easier to find when you need it, and it'll make for a nice addition to your EDC loadout.
