A survival necklace can prove very useful in many situations, such as while canoeing or riding an ATV. A canoer, for example, could find himself separated from their pack and need tools close at hand. An ATV rider, on the other hand, might need to stop and fix something while moving. If the owner's survival necklace is lost or damaged, these tools could be extremely useful. Listed below are some of the other uses for a survival necklace.

Paracord

Creating your own paracord survival necklace is surprisingly easy. The materials required for this device are two six-foot sections of paracord, a plastic buckle, an s-clip, and a lighter. The paracord itself is very strong and sturdy, and you can even make one that is pretty stylish. The paracord is also available in a variety of colours, and the clasps are usually quick-release. Depending on the size of the necklace, you might need to add a safety release before wearing it.

Breakaway closure

A survival necklace is a cord wrapped around your neck that can hold a variety of gear in a survival situation. The necklace can be customized to fit your needs, but it is often bulky and uncomfortable to wear. A breakaway clasp isn't ideal for heavy necklaces because they can lose their gear if the cord is pulled. Moreover, the cord is often used to organize your gear and keeps it safe.

Quick access tools

The paracord bracelet is an excellent example of a survival necklace. This multi-tool includes paracord, fishing hooks, swivels, and fishing bait. These tools are great for hiking or trekking and are also waterproof. They're an inexpensive way to get a few survival essentials. This necklace can also be personalized with a charm. Quick access tools for survival necklaces can be useful in many different situations, so it's easy to add some extra flare.

Lightweight pendant

A survival pendant can be an excellent way to prepare for an emergency or to be prepared for a disaster. They contain a variety of tools, such as a fire-starter and a pair of tweezers. The Wenger HypeX line features six different pendants, each with its own unique combination of tools. The Pietra pendant, for example, contains a flint for fire-starting and knife-sharpening tools. Another pendant, the Whug, contains an emergency whistle and pairs of tweezers.

Firestarter

A two-part fire starting pendant, lanyard and natural dyed cowhide leather is the core of a Wazoo Survival Gear pendant. The pendant itself features a White Zirconia (ZrO2) Ceramic "Scraper" and black chamfered Ferrocerium barrel toggle. While these pendants may not be sold on Amazon, they are well-made and may come in handy in an emergency.
