Is the sponge version of this soft or hard like a book? I guess this is a stupid question but I dont know and a co-worker and I are arguing about it.

Someone?

I consider it more quick clot in a bag rather than a sponge.  It is not hard nor soft.  It is more like a bean bag.  It is considerably cooler than the original quik clot.  I have not personally applied the sponge only a quick familiarization but from what I have heard from first hand users, they do not personally like the sponge.  It does work well in keeping the granules from blowing around, possibly in your eyes in a windy environment but the efficacy seems to be less than the original version.

Personally I like the original quik clot over say hemcon.  Even though I have a combat medic certification, I must admit that while I have done live tissue applications, my experience is limited and not performed in an actual battlefield environment.
