THE ACME Whistles Editorial Review

Acme Metropolitan Bobby Police Standard Whistle 15 is the real deal - made in England, brass with a nickel plate. The whistle produces a distinct sound that is not unpleasant to human ears. While some customers have reported losing the whistle when wearing it around their necks, attaching it to a small key ring and then to the clip provided should sort that issue out. There is also a replica of the WWI trench whistle available on Amazon, but users say that this whistle produces a similar sound. The website provides sound samples of the whistle, so users can get an idea of the sound produced. Those who are looking for a whistle like the one used in the Road Runner cartoons will also be pleased to know that this is the whistle they are looking for.

Pros

Made in England
Distinct sound
Versatile sound with varying pitch
Similar to the WWI trench and Road Runner cartoon whistle

Cons

May detach when attached to clip or lanyard around neck
