When you work with knives, axes, saws and other sharp tools, you need to be prepared for the unlikely but potentially life-threatening consequences of a serious accident. The C-A-T® Gen 7 is a compact, proven tourniquet designed to control catastrophic bleeding from an arm or leg when every second matters.
The Gen 7 features a single-routing buckle for faster application and effective slack removal, alongside a reinforced windlass rod, secure windlass clip and writeable retention strap. It is designed for one-handed application and can be carried conveniently in a personal first-aid kit, tool bag or accessible belt pouch.
Jamie Dakota, founder and Chief Instructor of Howl Bushcraft, recommends a quality tourniquet as essential emergency equipment for anyone regularly using knives, axes or saws, particularly when working in woodland or remote locations where professional medical help may take longer to arrive.
