Frequently Asked Questions

What tools are included on the RE Factor Wilderness Survival Card?

The RE Factor Wilderness Survival Card features a standard arrowhead, a small game arrowhead, a dual-sided saw, a trident (gig), an awl, tweezers, two sewing needles, and four snare locks. These components are designed to be popped out of the thin metal frame.

Yes, the trident component can be used for gigging fish or frogs. Additionally, the small metal pieces could potentially be fashioned into fishing lures or spoons for emergency fishing.

What are the limitations of the RE Factor Survival Card?

While useful, the card is made of thin metal. Effective use, especially primitive mounting of components, requires significant practice, patience, and fine motor skills, and preparation in the field is labor-intensive.
