Hello, I just received the production version of the HEST folder and am very pleased with it. I am still trying to figure out what the various parts in the accompanying skull tool are for. Someone earlier pointed to me that one of the eyes can be used to remove the glass breaker; what are the uses for the two 'hairs' sticking out at the top of the skull? Also, the edge along the chin -- is it meant to be a cutting tool? Thanks.

On the DPX site, it says something about the tool having a "box cutter." Check out the picture with description on their site:

The "prongs" at the top are an adjustment tool for the pivot. One of the eyes is for removing the glass breaker. The other eye is basically a lanyard hole. The bottom is a "pry bar/scraper" and the "hook" next to that is a seatbelt cutter/rope cutter/box opener.
