Get the bigger sponge.,
This 25 g sponge is tiny. Seems that a wound this small wouldn’t really need a clotting agent. Get the bigger sponge.

Anyone contemplating… please read…,
This review is based on 1st hand experience (unfortunately).
I awoke one morning to a frantic knock on the bathroom door saying someone cut their finger badly. I hustled out of the shower & went down to the kitchen to see what was going on. To my surprise, it wasn’t a cut — but rather an amputation of 1 & 1/2 finger tips. A kitchen towel was wrapped around the hand, but the blood was easily soaking the towel & running down their arm. I ran to get a pack that was in my gun bag & a second one in my diaper bag. By the time I got back (which wasn’t more than a minute or so) the kitchen towel had been swapped out & a huge wad of gauze bandage was now dripping red. I told the victim to press the quikclot on & don’t remove it for any reason. Within 30 seconds, the bleeding had stopped… period. There was no more bleeding until we got to the ER & the quikclot was removed by the doctor. At that point, it bled profusely again because the cut had knicked an artery.
Needless to say, I’m impressed by this product & have urged everyone I know to keep a few around! I now keep one in every vehicle, first aid kit & “high risk” activity bag.
My only complaints: they are rather pricey (for “what ifs”) & a single small pack is really not enough. The small size really limits the types & sizes of injuries that the quikclot can be applied to.
All in all — every household should have at least a couple on hand. For the price of a few beers or coffees, you could save someone’s life. Buy it.

The best way to stop serious bleeding- other than an ER, of course,
This product stops bleeding cold. Right Now. Note- it is expensive and a little messy, so don’t go using it for everyday cuts, those where the bleeding is easily controlled by pressure. But this could very well save a life, especially out in the field.
Get one of the large packs and keep it at home in your 1st Aid kit, and one of the smaller packs to carry in your beltpouch or daypack, along with a few Band-Aids and the usual stuff.
Most first aid kits do not contain this product as it is too expensive, so you’ll have to add it yourself. What is handy with this product is that you can apply it to yourself in a pinch.
