Actually, having had badly injured knee (5 months with crutches) while on military exercise with looong trip trough roadless woods to nearest medical assistane, I put that on my worst wilderness, but stomach trouble is NOT fun.
@@KitbashedSurvival agreed. My worst was having the runs while on a 9 mile ruck run through the woods outside vilseck, germany while in the army. Worst part was i still had to catch up😬
Picked up two of these today on clearance at Walmart for $39. I figured it was worth that for the SOS food, dry bag, and first aid supplies I plan to pull out the good stuff I want for our get home bags and leave the rest with some improvements in our storm shelter.
I would have put in a Leathermen or a cheaper version, also some waterproof matches. also, I would replace the rescue blankets and put in the larger SOL Rescue blankets 1000x better. and I would put in a headlamp also a few 4x4's, antibacterial cream, and steri strips in the medical side.
Found one at my Walmart today 2/13/23 for $16 on clearance. Unopened. Went ahead and snagged it, I’ll make some minor modifications and have another contingency. Especially if I have kids friends or unexpected guests with me when SHTF.
What I would added to this kit is the Stanley's 24oz adventure cook set or a small cooking camp set. A cheap folding saw and Morakniv knife and victorinox multi tool. A good mylar tube tent along with a bivy sleeping bag. Course add cheap small headlamp. Good survival whistle. This just some of the idea off the top of my head that I came up with.
@@ApollymiiaThanata you're welcome. One of the most important thing about these types of kits is that you never see anyone try them out in the field. I have always told people that the so called Backyard Survivalist has one smart idea and that is to test your camping and survival gear in a safe environment.
I noticed that one on my last trip to Walmart. I almost bought it as I needed a dry bag and almost everything was sold out (eventually I found a dry bag w/backpack straps so I went that route instead). It doesn't seem terrible for the price. The water pouches are kind of a waste of packaging and budget but the shelf life is good so I guess it's not bad. The rations are a decent starting point. It's nice that there's room in the pack to add a few things.
I think that I would put the match/whistle combo back in the kit with some wooden matches and striker strip for the additional fire starter with it being water resistant because you said that you have some more room in there.
It's two thirds of a good kit, the bag is a winner. Personally I would ditch the two flashlights and add some smaller but better quality alternatives such as a Fenix E01 or a Nextorch K21 (neither is expensive). Also a medium sized Swiss Army Knife (Spartan or Tinker) would be a good option as the sole knife/tool requirement.
I kinda like the crank flashlight in a way, and my first thought was to find a small Maglite to replace the chintzy plastic orange battery-powered flashlight; someone else in the comments mentioned a headlamp - but, whatever the choice of replacement lights, the point still stands: it's not hard to find a better light than the low-budget Chinese junk in this kit! Much the same thing goes for a knife/multitool: it's surely not difficult to find a better option than what was included in this kit. Not bad for what it is, though: it's weighed down with the usual low-budget Chinese survival kit suspects, the unmarked water tablets are as hilarious as they are dubious and unsound, the rusty pins inspire no confidence at all in the state of the waterproof bag, but what's there seems mostly harmless, if you catch it on a good sale.
I think it is a great kit for $60.00. It was lacking in fire and a knife but for the price it is a good starting point and you can add everything you need.
Great review and an interesting looking kit, surprisingly ok I thought except for maybe the first aid supplies. Your additions were the best part of the video, some important tips there. I like the overall idea of the kit being in a waterproof bag too, you could use it to transport a good amount of water if you had too.
I have enjoyed this channel since you started it. You''ve reviewed so many items now that it would be nice.to.know what your favorite kit is at various price points or applications. It would also be cool to know your favorite kit of each type (can, bag, backpack, roll away, etc.)
As usual great video and Great additions. I always suggest throwing a large contractor bag, some zip ties. The safety pins can be used to tie off the corners.
4:58 I have exactly the same flashlight, if you take it apart you will see that it has several small batteries and they are not rechargeable, they are not rechargeable flashlights. When the batteries die, no matter how much you turn the crank, they don't work anymore. It's a scam
Just a note: Those 'pump' / crank flashlights are fake - they have a button cell battery inside. The pumping does not charge the battery, once the button cell battery dies, pumping the flashlight will give up about a quarter of a second of a very dull light that you can't see anything buy and no one would notice if they're more than 3 feet away from you. They're a complete scam and should never have a place in any emergency kit, since you can get a better light, with a lot more battery life in less space.
First time viewer here. I gave you a thumbs up for a good review and the fact that you made the bag ALOT better. But overall I thought it was a garbage kit as was purchased.
@@KitbashedSurvival I know, was just saying this because you did this several times in older videos, like switching the scale to gramms, and it was real helpful
It's hard to resist smirking at a waterproof survival kit with rusty contents.... it's like a doctor who gets tetanus, or a fire at the firehouse, and it's not fair.... The unlabeled water tablets definitely do not inspire confidence, either. If I were to need more room in this kit, the first casualties to get voted off the island would be those goofy plastic tweezers, and the plastic flashlight... swap that light out for a small Maglite, and the giant plastic tweezers for some normal-sized metal ones. Oh yeah, and that tactical match safe and tactical survival card as well: tough to take those seriously :D Overall, this is kind of what id expect from a cheap off-the-shelf survival kit: all the usual corners were cut, the contents are fairly familiar, and really the biggest surprises here are he waterproof bag it's packaged in, and the crank flashlight (I don't see those too often!) I didn't catch the price on the first listen, but if the price is low enough, I guess I could forgive its faults.
I just had an idea. 15 liter dry bag, 15 water tablets and that would be a considerable amount of safe water in a shelter in place scenario. Wouldn't want to have to carry that much water very far.
Love your channel, I hope you make more videos more often. I was thinking when you said you could carry it on your shoulder, you could also carry it on the end of a stick and be a prepared hobo lol
I would toss those two 3600 cal food bars that last 3 days each (per person) and replace them with 6 120” cal bars thst last be day each. Less likely to have food “spoil” once opened if it only lasts one day per pack rather than three days per pack. They also make 2400 cal food bars that can be considered. I would also add a LARGE pencil sharpener to create shavings for fire starting.
Man i LOVE these type of vids man (Good voice, soothing music, sensible mind). If i may add a little note of critique, Id love to see some new unique/hard to find items. We always looking for those or better ones ;D Cheers from the Netherlands.
I got my go bag (quality stuff that I slowly built up) stolen from the trunk of my SUV last month so now im looking for a premade survival bag that i can just buy to compliment my backup bag in the meantime while i re-build my premium bag
Not bad for a walmart kit. I’d have added a larger Victorinox like a Trekker and maybe a Mora with a modified spine just so I’d have access to a saw and an awl and I’d also have a good fixed blade that isn’t a bank breaker so I wouldn’t be bothered by having it sit in a bag
One of the better packs. 60$ is a fair price. I always would replace the scissors, I hate this trash ones in the first-aid-packages. Very good is that the bag has unused space for "improvements".
I know you have a bunch of these types of kits, so I'm wondering if you have a system for rotating out expired items like food bars and water pills and those little med kits of yours.
Not bad, some inexpensive items but thats to be expected at this price. Its lacking a few key ingredients but all in all it will get you through for a short time. Thanks for the review.
Thank you for the reviews. I was gonna let you know though, while these reviews are detailed and good, I'm unable to almost any of these online, specially like the more expensive ones such as Esee stuff. I'd appreciated if you'd be so kind to provide links please. Thank you and keep the reviews coming :)
I have noticed at times the price of the kit in the beginning. Just curious what the price difference would be after you add your to make the kit a little better items ????
I dont think I have ever saw a video of someone collecting water from a stream or pond, filtering it, using the purification pill then drinking it and telling us what it tastes like (do the pills affect the taste of water) and trying the filter straw and telling us if pond water tastes bad after using that - maybe one of your future videos ??
you need 2000 cal a day with work then less andd less when the body is in rest, it can be better. I have 164.04199475/ 50 meters para cord I got a Kukri knife, 5 gas lighters, bandage, common types two 9.842519685 x 13.12335958 feet/ 3 x 4 meter tarps, I got feral rods, magnifying glass, multi tools, fishers knife wet stone, I think I cover the basics well.
I want to make a video where me and a few friends go out into the woods. Each of us get a bag and we have to make it 72 hours using nothing but the kit.
I agree with you: Life Gear make decent survival kits. Not perfect, but a good start! Now, how can I get ahold of something equivalent (I'm in Europe)?
Good point, I'm in Europe (okay UK not EU but still Europe!) and we can't get this brand here either. One fairly good US brand that is widely available at least in Western Europe is SOL - check this German page for example: www.snowleader.de/de/kit-de-survie-origin-SOL_00010.html There is of course a lot of cheap Chinese gear and kits but with a couple of exceptions for actual components e.g. cheap firesteels I wouldn't recommend. If you want a ready made survival kit maybe check (online) prepper or survival stores in your country? Kits aren't perfect but like you say a good start and as time goes on you can add to them or swap out items for gear bought separately. Or you can just watch reviews like these and build up your own kit based on what you see reviewed. I got ideas from these type of reviews, e.g. a German reviewer had burn gel in his kit which I had not heard of, so I bought some on ebay and added it to my first aid pouch. However then you'll probably end up spending more as you go for better items, e.g. a Swiss Army knife with a saw instead of a ''survival card''. Good luck and have fun!
Where in Europe are you? Are there survival kit brands over there that we don't have here? I'd love to be able to check out some European made kits that can't be bought here. Maybe we can trade.
@@KitbashedSurvival in the Benelux we have Highlander, 101 Inc, Fosco and a couple more but all lower end kits. My kit is from the German company mil-tec but like you i kitbashed it because it was lacking, adding a Victorinox and more. High end kits are usually the same as you have but more expensive due to VAT and import tax.
Hmm... okay. Yeah i just buy a drybag and ad my own stuff in it. The content is more to give people an indication what should go into the bag to supplement your EDC or BUG OUT.
Love your channel. I want a review of a "survival" plane kit. It's call "essenpack essential travel kit pro" is a little pack with authorized thing that you can use on plane.
Not horrible, but every kit should have a knife in my opinion and credit card thing doesn't fly. I would add a few more items, then could be decent for one person, but definitely not 3.
I dislike the idea of packing a survival bag to the brim. Firstly, because it'll likely make the bag weigh a ton. And secondly, in case you find or scavenge something useful while moving to safety, you'll have a place to store it instead of needing to hand carry it.
it looks like you went to the dollar store to fill that bag the empty bag is the only thing worth buying and i still won't pay no more than 15 dollars for that
Looks very cheap and no tourniquet? If you got a deep cut or severed an artery or came across someone who did that would be life or death. Tourniquets arent expensive that should be 1st priority in a first aid kit. Alot of gimmicks in this kit
Had a horrible 13 hr day in a 120 plus degree attic coming home to an upload was awesome
Thanks!
I do like that everything is packed in reusable zip lock bags and not just cellophane.
Yes
Each time i see the added immodium tablets all i can think is "this guy got caught out somewhere unprepepared with the squirts" 🤣
I've been backpacking all my life and I can say from experience that there's nothing worse than being in the wilderness with the runs. hehe

How do the manufacturers manage to get the ponchos and blankets folded up so small? Any videos on that part of things?
Good video! Maybe you can make a video about where you get the containers and water purification tabs, ect..
After you added a few things, You have a good kit for a mountain bike.
I think I would love a good wool blanket . Wool is God's way to say he loves you . Many uses .
Just my opinion, but this survival kit has a questionable quality
He did buy it at Walmart
Glad he upgraded it with his own gear.
Has anyone, even Kitbashed Survival, ever done a make your own survival kit, where they go shopping and assemble step by step?

Very enjoyable video Eric, cheers, all the best to you and yours 👍 👍 👍 🍻

Looks like a good kit, I saw something like that at Walmart,
It might have been this kit as Walmart sells this kit in some of their stores.
I really like these videos but for the love of god use the metric system as well when measuring stuff 😂 (like a subtitle would be all I need)

Not sure how much I'd want to walk around in an urban survival situation with a large orange bag with "survival kit" emblazoned on the side.
Hi Eric, please do a review on that hydroblu straw filter pen.. including measurements... thanks! Love the channel!
I know you have a bunch of these types of kits, so I'm wondering if you have a system for rotating out expired items like food bars and water pills and those little med kits of yours.
For my main kits that I actually would use in an emergency situation, I usually inspect them once a year.
Id love it if you rated the top 5 bags that you've reviewed. It would give us some sense on which has the most value
Not bad, some inexpensive items but thats to be expected at this price. Its lacking a few key ingredients but all in all it will get you through for a short time. Thanks for the review.
Thanks for sharing👍
Perhaps the really thick food baggies would be better to hold the small items, cause they can be also used for water.???

So you have a lot a survival kits, right? Most seem to be semi custom. Do you ever sell these kits or do you just stock pile them?
Right now, I've just got a room full of them. I might sell them or give them away at some point.
Better to make your own kit.
I have noticed at times the price of the kit in the beginning. Just curious what the price difference would be after you add your to make the kit a little better items ????
Sucks when these kits get reviewed then they sell out for months and impossible to acquire... solkoa pro for example
yeah that solkoa pro i was really impressed with for a pre-made bag.
I dont think I have ever saw a video of someone collecting water from a stream or pond, filtering it, using the purification pill then drinking it and telling us what it tastes like (do the pills affect the taste of water) and trying the filter straw and telling us if pond water tastes bad after using that - maybe one of your future videos ??
Yeah maybe. It's not that exciting, though. The pills usually do impart a slight taste to the water, but it's not terrible.
"better than nothing, but not that great"... "I guess it'll do in a pinch"... that's the description of the whole kit...

Sure

Looks good to upgrade and toss a car for emergences.

definitely pass on this one, next
Ziplocks are good idea food .water . The rest .yikes . I think way to much med kit .great rebuild though
I dislike the idea of packing a survival bag to the brim. Firstly, because it'll likely make the bag weigh a ton. And secondly, in case you find or scavenge something useful while moving to safety, you'll have a place to store it instead of needing to hand carry it.
It's so many interesting kits in US. In Ukraine we have only Chinese cheap one. This is sad.
Survival chunks are trash. Refer to Urban Survivor(Cliff). He tried to eat them three different times, and fell ill each time.
I've eaten them plenty of times and never gotten sick. Guess it depends on the person.
@@KitbashedSurvival Same here. The only down side to me is the taste (Or lack thereof)
For this Bag ist half Prize to match Money ! 72 Hour Survival kit ,I have more in my Bag for the Half Money with better quality !
did you ever notice that he never tested the 'water-proof' feature of the bag?
or if the bag could carry water...
just sayin'
I did test it, off camera. It works fine.
@@KitbashedSurvival prolly would've been nice to see...
Hi
I was disappointed with mine.
2 is 1. 1 is none. Decent one person kit. (After modifications of course.)
And even if you started off alone, you may meet up with others who have nothing.
it looks like you went to the dollar store to fill that bag the empty bag is the only thing worth buying and i still won't pay no more than 15 dollars for that
I feel like I am cheating on Steve1989
Not a fan of these big survival kits. If I'm going to spend more than 30 or 40 dollars, I would rather build my own kit, tailored to my own situation.
Looks very cheap and no tourniquet? If you got a deep cut or severed an artery or came across someone who did that would be life or death. Tourniquets arent expensive that should be 1st priority in a first aid kit. Alot of gimmicks in this kit
Don’t by these prepackaged Walmart survival kit because they are made of poor quality stuff
