I recommend folks make their own kits. Much cheaper and easier to personalize.
True, but if you know nothing about what you actually need then it’s a good idea to start with a pre made kit, and then practice with it. Then you will fairly fast realise what things actually works and what needs to be upgraded. Then you practice again, upgrade if needed. And at the end you will have a kit that is custom for the user with only things you know how to use.
I disagree with both of these gentlemen. The internet will show you what you need not this cheap kit.
Самостоятельно конечно лучше, тем более что условия везде разные, и набор будет тоже разный
I recommend you make me one
I agree but it's fun to see what they come out with
I really think the person doing the review owns a major share of the sardine can industry. $15.00 worth of back yard kids toys, and $105.00 worth of sardine can.
Ok.... So whT do you suggest is better gear?
I mean
Press the steel
Ok we want to compain about things
For me it's usually shoes, cause humans have wide feet
Instead of common TH-cam things where people will just like . . . s*** on other people verbally I want to actually like walk through the interconnected human emotions that make us all one that some call God
In your anger about the pressed steel container
So for the steel to be like this we need it pressed, after being a sheet, after being produced, after being made into steel, after being made into iron, after being extracted from ore
All those processes & machines
So if we work our way up to that, the cost for all those machines is far higher for 1 produced item
The cost is representative of percentages of the cost to produce it + profit to do more than pay off the cost for production
I like the tin
Now that I'm watching the video some of these items are really shitty
Okay so I get f****** pissed with all the petrol plastics, just out in the world being an inferior quality material- if I was Hank Hill plastic is not propane- is the mood
I bitch about stuff all the time, then use those as building components for a solution, a problem is an opportunity to find a solution, and I want to know yours
I've been writing up some stuff about a bug out bag and I think that a very very small tin like this one would be useful inside a bag or stashed in a car
Get some kids some of those tins, (some container I'm feeling momentum of idea) so they can build up a survival kit they are accustomed to, like how you know your lunch bag so you know how to use your water bottle, the familiarity with your tools that give you that little benefit
I've taken survival classes and I've started fire with my hands before so I hear you
@@spacepygmy4443 agreed
@@Arthurian. altoid can filled with those things bought seperately. Probably less than half the price or even better.
Bout right.
Just a tip for vacuum sealed items. If you put in ointments/lotions/creams, make sure to put them separately from other dry items. Or, put them in separate mini ziplocks to isolate. Those semi-liquids can migrate out and soak your other items.
I recommend putting them into a silicone rubber bag. No leaks that way. You can even get some that are vacuum sealable if you look for silicone sous vide bags.
@@josephwilliams1915 n pg
And make a note of when they expire and replace before they do.
Yup
Make use of the petroleum that you might coat 😮your cotton in; as a skin protectant or moisturizer. Believe it or not but petroleum jelly doesn’t actually “moisturize” your skin. It blocks the natural moisture in your skin from evaporating/ leeching into your fabrics in heat, and it keeps your skin protected from the cold as an excellent barrier. Also, you can even coat your cotton in petroleum based A&D ointment. It’ll start your fires and be useful in a pinch if necessary!
The surgical tubing can be made into a sling shot with a Y branch. And the thimble thingy in the sewing kit is a needle threader
Didn't think of the sling shot thing. I knew about the needle threader...it was just a mistake.
A trap from surgical tube and cordage
The coffee filter works good as toilet paper and best if you make the coffee first...
Or to bleed the brakes on your truck, then you can drive to a hotel and get a $120 room.
Also as a fire lighting aid.
the flashlights' battery should have had a tab to keep it from lighting straight out of the box. it conserves the battery life
I'm always amazed at these tactical survival guys hands , they always look as though the hardest thing they've ever been through is the laundromat
Lmao
Funny.
ROFL 🤣 🤣 🤣 I was just about to leave a comment about dudes hands!!! Literally looks like he left that nail shop before buying the kit!
They got soft hands, they been countin’ money all their lives.
Tactical? KBS has like 100 videos and I have yet to see a single one remotely "tactical". Sounds like you might be projecting there buddy.
love the tin everything comes in, but not $120 worth of love
Best glide makes survival kits for dudes (and dudettes) that own planes.
You can get all this at any Outdoor Store...Cheaper...and you know what everything is.
What a bunch of cheap junk. Medical?
@@Thereal111t yeah... and they make this kit for half the price that Henry is trying to sell it for. And honestly... this is mostly junk.
@@andrewrobert5019 yeah but it comes at the cost of less gear and cheaper gear
Henry makes outstanding, high quality rifles. I own one. I would own 3 or4 if they weren't outlandishly priced. Same with this kit.
You get what you pay for if you want a low cost rifle that will last you as long as anything else go get a New England Fire arms or something along them lines if you want a pretty rifle with a name like Henry than you're gonna pay
Walmart used to occasionally carry Henry rifles here in West Virginia, they were 3 to 4 hundred less than elsewhere, so they have quite a markup
@@ronaldmercer9616 exactly, I bought the 45-70 for about 450 and the 30-30 for 300
The Henry survival rifle is really cool. All breaks down and fits inside the stock,.22 caliber.
@@ratslayer110 That is the one, Michael owns, since it is also the cheapest Henry one can buy. Sad thing is, their are a lot of rifles that will last just as long as the Henry and cost a whole lot less.....
In the first day or two of a survival situation, you're going to want water, shelter, and food, so I would add a full water bottle, a 55 gallon clear trash bag, and some hard candy and lifeboat food. I like a clear trash bag because you can wrap yourself in it to stay warm, use it as a tent, you can use it to keep yourself off the wet ground, you can use it as a poncho, or make a solar still with it. You can also stuff it with leaves to use as a mattress.
My grandson Henry (a young child), keeps “taking walks” in his own. He has been brought home several times by the neighbors. I’m sending this to my son (who is also a camper and survivalist - the dad, but maybe the grandson too…🤔). This is perfect. 🤣🤣
I like that you added the meds and knife. I am always looking at a source of water in these kits. Kudis for imroving an otherwise basic good kit.
Love the reviews! You noticed the same thing I did. It lacked a little medical. That's all that I saw wrong initially. I didn't think about the bic lighter or buck knife. Keep up the good work.
The "space blacket" is white on the inside and yellow on the out side. One side reflects and the other absorbs heat. Insted the Bic lighter, try the Clipper lighter. The striker can be removed and dryed if wet or replaced while the gaz remains. The rubber can be used for a sling shoot too.
I added up about $15 worth of trinkets in a sardine can....
Exactly ! Anyone who would pay $120.00 for this and then advocate it as being worth the price is just nuts !
Yes. But it's a very nice sardine can.
A lot of engineering went into that can.
If you can make this exact kit for 15 bucks be my guest, I have no idea how you can get a 30$ multitool in there for nothing without counterfeiting it
Yes but no. Most of this stuff you would have to buy a large pack of to get the One you need for your kit, which raises the price. Figure $20 for the tin. Around $3 to $5 bucks each for things like the compass, razor knife, "multi tool", etc. Then the things you have to buy in bulk packs. Say $50 - $70 if you can find some deals or use lesser quality items. Way less if you already have most of this stuff laying around but that just means you payed for it in the past.
I'd say $15 is far too inexpensive. I put together a kit similar to this and it was closer to $195. Obviously these people are producing thousands of these and getting a deep wholesale discount. If the retail cost is $120, Id guesstimate production cost at around $40. Obviously not including assembly line, warehousing etc. I imagine their profit margin is modest.
A good review thanks for taking the time to do it
Just a brief note on the items you added: I would suggest also a few iodine prep pads. Basically iodine is better for sterilizing minor wounds or cuts, while alcohol is better for sterilizing implements such as your knife blade or scissors. Good review and a great compact survival kit. I was surprised to see the surgical tubing which has multiple uses, such as reaching into a crevice between rocks or in any small place where water may collect to extract it. Also there is enough plastic there to make a small solar still which could collect water in the tin, then use the tubing to drink the water without having to disturb the still.
SAS used Potasium permanganate, for desinfection and water purification to.
Tastes bad but safe in short time use.
Just as a powder in litle botle.
Good idea to have both and both are used as prep for surgery, one is not really better than the other so much as they can do the same job differently
Iodine kills cells
Tip, walnut husk is full of iodine and makes a great anticeptic.
Love this channel. Really excited to see you take some of these kits out to the field.
Thanks!
Always like making my own kits ofcourse. But this is a pretty good ready made kit
I am impressed you got everything back in it!
Now I want to see you put it all back in the tin box good video I didn't know Henry made a kit like that thanks for the info
I have a similar kit, except mine includes spare ammo, actual medical supplies, a real flashlight and a real knife. It's all contained in a leather carry bag, and cost me under $25 to make.
Exactly! Just add something for water purification and you are set outside of emergency food stuff. And I couldn't believe all the cheap stuff in this video cost over $100.
@@remyllebeau77 It's a gimmick. using the Henry brand name to steal from unsuspecting consumers.
yeah ammo is the best. put your survival kit full of ammo. it weights not much, but you can carry it arround and tell people "oh i have 90rounds of 5.56 in my survival box!"
I kind of feel like you might be missing the point here. Premade kits, by definition, are not for people who prefer to build their own kits. Like telling a Ferrari owner that I can build a faster Honda for half the money. Um, well ya. Duh
@@snakeplissken2148 I was thinking more along the lines of one box of .22LR for the pistol in my kit.
Tip of the day, never buy or rely on premade so called survival kits. Their always put together with the cheapest of the cheap. $120 the common man can build a nice kit heck even a rucksack full of gear if he/she shops around. Most quality gear you can pick up reasonably and used at yard sale, thrift stores and so on.
Or use the $120 to pay for a hotel room ;)
Normally I agree, but this kit actually has mil spec gear in it. For what it contains, It's quite the complete kit and worth the price to me.
I think this is a great video for giving me ideas on what to put into my own survival kit. Sure this kit is over priced for what it is. But for me I find the video useful because there are things I haven't thought of. But also things missing from this kit which I can add to my own. Thanks for sharing
Right on
Im really diggin your survival kit reviews man. I forgot all about henry
Leak proof usually means it's for storing liquids and itll.keep liquid from leaking. Lol. Love your videos my friend.
In any survival kit I ever put together, going back to the 1980s, I also included a small pencil and paper. At the time, sticks from candy 🍭 (like dum-dums and such) were just rolled paper. A few of them and I had the means to leave a lot of notes or to pass time by writing thoughts, making plans (easy to get overwhelmed; notes help), maps, etc.
You right everyone should pack there tins to there own needs. I made a smaller tin that that has a note pad you are right paper can be used in many different ways. Start fire's, use as toilet paper, leave notes behind, or write to pass time.
Being from the 70-80 myself note pad and pencil was always in my kits. Still are 40+years later.
Good review
I like USA made stuff. Great video friend. Thanks a lot. SC Navy vet.
For the price there should have been 100 dollars worth of petty cash in there.
This. And a tin of altoids.
And a dime bag of killer smoke to numb the pain of being ripped-off.
lol i know!!
I was thinking the same thing. There might $25 worth of stuff in this kit and the rim can't be worth more than $5. Total rip off. And if you're not an expert survivalist this kit will be pretty useless. Just way over priced junk taking advantage of ignorant people. Shame on you.
@@KeweenawPatriot 25 bucks worth of stuff? You must be shoplifting allot of things for that price because the multitool is 30 bucks
The real question is why pay for 125$ FOR THIS.
Because that's how much it's worth?
@@unstopable_rob Hi, I have a bridge I'd like to sell you.
@@mattmcc72 my bridge is better, its from London.
They pay him 125 dollars to make this review... That's pathetic mate... Find an other job
cost of materials, shipping, packaging, alongside needing to make a profit, it adds up very quickly. its like fast food, youre not paying for the food, youre not paying for the ingredients so much ad you are the practicality f having it thought out and made for you
Thank you sir ...i think with your video i ll try to make my own survival kit..more power to your video..
Thanks for your review
Very good kit. I like the rubber tubing and the loksac bag. I'd put in another Melita filter and 10 water purification tabs. And a small pocket folding knife. Some triple antibiotic and a few more bandaids.
@@NerdyNEET you've obviously never been in a survival situation. You want redundancy. And multi-purpose items. Do I have to explain how a candle or a light stick are multi-purpose? Your ignorance is showing.
Good job getting it all back in the tin. There's another use for the tubing. One neat trick in warm weather to get evaporated water out of the ground is to use something non-porous, like a piece of the emergency blanket. Dig a hole and put the non-pourous sheet in it shaped like a cone pointing down, top it with a branch and leaves or something, and a day later if the ground is moist enough you should have collected clean, safe drinking water. Rather than taking the top cover off which would break the greenhouse-type seal, suck up the water with the tubing.
Good thing Sean. Solar stills can also be used in desert climates but it takes a while. If you put a cup or can under the reverse apex (is that even a term?), the water will collect there. Thanks for the reminder.
@@daviddickerson4728 That was it! Couldn't remember what it was called for the life of me. Read about it decades ago but never needed to put it to the test, fortunately. As soon as the tubing was hauled out that's where my mind jumped. Glad to read the other good suggestions for it, too.
Great review ,thanks for sharing.
3:45 When they're marketed for bicycles, those lights have rubber/jelly sleeves that cover the light which also have a strap that wraps around the handlebars. They cost about a dollar at finer Amazon overstock stores.
Honestly, I could have made that kit (Minus the custom tin box) for about $30.00 max.
+$5 for the coffee tin and it comes with a free lot of instant roast coffee.
Please note coffee must be consumed first before try to pack Walmart survival toy set inside.😋😋😋
yeah that kit he reviewed is 125 $ .//
He said people like you would say that
@@nathanday2595 Oui, et pensez-vous que ceux qui essaient de vous vendre des ordures dix fois plus cher ne sauront pas que tout le monde n'est pas encore fou ?)
Best Glide sounds like a competitor to KY Jelly
lol...
Isn't KY Jelly just marmalade from Kentucky?
I was thinking woodworking plane, but I don't have a dirty mind.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣👏👏👏👏
$30 worth of dollar tree.....
Cost aside that is a great kit. I definitely like your addition. I always as a piece of candy to mine, it can be a real boost in a survival situation.
This is the first video of yours I’ve come across. I’m definitely going to check out your others.
My only question is how many survival situations have you actually been in? If you try to give me some work number I'm going to guess it's more than bad luck that is causing these situations to appear
@@jamesbowen5573 zero, I did go to Air Force survival schools.
My guess is most survival situations can be chalked up to bad luck.
@@oxxnarrdflame8865 my main point is purchasing a premade kit is ridiculous. So many people that buy them have no idea how to use the stuff. They also don't understand that most of the stuff is one-time-use. That's okay if you know for a fact you're only going to be lost for a day. Or in trouble for a day. But the truth is you don't know how many days you're going to be in trouble. I think people would do better for themselves actually taking a training course on survival like you did in the Air Force they have them for civilians too. If a person is that worried about survival it is real easy to educate yourself period and regardless to what you remember to bring with you, you always have knowledge with you once you get it. And if you really want to survive you don't want to dick around with a bunch of junk. You need tools you can use in an emergency and be familiar enough to make them work the first time. Being in trouble and opening one of those kits hoping that it works the way it was advertised is foolish. And I already gave a list of item-by-item in the comment section. A button Compass may be cool to wear on your watch band. But they are not always accurate. And just because they're accurate today when you put them in the kit does not mean they will be accurate a few months from now if you try to use them. All they are good for is general direction which you can determine so many other ways. But you cannot use one with a map very accurately. For one thing the North Pole is Shifting 37 miles a year so depending on your map and how old it is, you could be quite a few degrees off. I know if I'm somewhere and want to survive I don't want a little box full of junk to keep me alive. I want something I can depend on and something I can use. His original kit did not even have a knife you could do very much with. What the hell are you going to do with those knives? I guess if you got ahold of an animal or caught a fish it would cut them open but you sure as hell could not skin anything with one. You can't process would with it. They are so flimsy I doubt you could cut rope very efficiently. Oh I am very sure it will cut the 270 paracord but that's about it. Chances are people with a piece of mylar as a tarp probably don't know how to use it without tearing it up. That mylar plastic is exactly like a bag of potato chips. Once you rip it it rips all the way down. The only good way of supporting it as a shelter would be to use the duct tape you could easily make flaps where you need them with the duct tape and cut you some holes in it instead of your mylar cover. But they don't tell you that. They tell you it is a blanket. Nothing could be further from the truth. It is not a blanket in any sense of the word. Blankets insulate. Mylar does not.
great kit but for the price i would rather see a real knife instead of the mini multi tool and derma razor
Totally agree. For me a proper knife is an absolute must.
Just get an esee knife , yer choice, Saran Wrap it on. It can be used fer lashing. An you have knife of choice . But rather see Leather Man.
You should already have a decent fixed blade knife and full sized multi tool, so what would be the point?
Hey, nice video, thanks for sharing this. I do believe however that people absolutely should speak up when a lacking/ incomplete kit is being sold for $120+ for 25$ worth of stuff, much of which is near to rubbish.
It’s important for things like that to be pointed out. That’s where the value of videos like this come from. Information.
I'm calling you out as a thief because the multi tool costs $30
Don’t overlook the value of your time locating and purchasing all those items. And you won’t find any American made items in the Dollar store.
@@ohgary Who said anything about the dollar store? If you know what you’re doing 15 minutes on Amazon or other retail online stores and you’re gold..
I’m all for a quality sensical pre made kit but it needs to be just that; quality and sensical as well as not twice the price as its value.
@@dangerousbeans2907 sorry I replied to the wrong post. middknight dream cited Walmart and the Dollar store.
@@ohgary :D
A very well thought out kit.
I think the mini master is a decent choice because it should pair well with something you may already be carrying.
If they are not carrying knowledge then it doesn't really matter what they are carrying and if they think this is a great kit they are clearly an amateur that probably hasn't ever been out in the woods before
I got a kit with these supplies and considerably more medical gear for $40 on Amazon. Over $100 seems very high. Thanks for sharing!
Made in China? Do you trust that?
Got a link?
Great video, Henry's rifles are always awesome and they have great products, but that is not $120 worth of great.
😳
$120 GOOD HEAVENS! THAT'S EXPENSIVE!
That rubber tubing looks like the same sort of rubber that some slingshots use. Or you could make a sort of 'bow and arrow' or 'crossbow' using the rubber tube to fire the bolt/arrow for small game.
It would make a better slingbow thanks to his 270 paracord than anything else. Though I guess you can make a real bow with that as well. Good luck trying to carve some arrows for those trashy little cutting tools. It would be next to Impossible without the knife he put in it
I love your videos. I have panic attacks and I watch your videos and I feel better.
Thank you
Great video lots of kool stuff in there
Awesome review
Eric, great review! I was one of those suggesting you review this kit...I have one as well in my collection. I really enjoy comparing the various kits and looking for ideas for my own. I recently found the Camillus branded Les Stroud Personal and Team survival kits online...they were hard to come by! My latest projects have been to replicate the kits recommended by Mors Kochanski and Cody Lundin. You may consider the Best Glide Wilderness Survivor kit...pricey, but another perspective on a kit that includes some rations and water. Always look forward to your reviews. :)
Thanks!
This kit pairs great with their 22LR survival rifle
I like your videos, very insightful and educational.
Thanks, Bill
Love the striker 🔥🔥🔥
Rambo had everything he needed stuffed into the handle of his knife.
FukYeah!

Fukyeah!
@@unstopable_rob Yeah speak for yourself. You're the only one I see whining about something in every thread here lol
@@ec6052 ok? Doesn't change the fact that we're not Rambo
It being packaged for Henry, I see the appeal in trying to remain within they're 'If it isn't made in America, it isn't made at all.' All said, definitely better than Coglan's.
I bought a 1.6L stainless cooking pot off amazon and made that my carrying case for all my survival gear. I keep it under the back seat of my truck. Its got everything i need to survive. Plus an axe and gomboy saw.
Спасибо за обзор 👍
Довольно интересно увидеть одноразовый набор настоящего сурвайвела 😁
$120??? I love Henry Repeating Arms, but this one...I think not.
The 'thimble thing' is not a thimble, but a needle threader. It's a good idea for those whose eyes are aging or whose fingers are shaking.
I know, thanks
@@KitbashedSurvival I thought you did, but it is not immediately obvious, and many people don't.
Another awesome video. Thank you
I’d replace those cotton pads with a couple of tampons, can be used to plug wounds, the fibre is insanely flammable and compacted so there’s loads of it and they come in waterproof packaging so you know it’s dry.
The candle made of beeswax drove the price sky high! Haha
Great review and for the price an amazing kit! The compass looks like a rebadged American-made Sun compass which is outstanding! The Loksaks are used by the Navy and are waterproof to a pretty good depth. As a light geek I'd say the Photon is a good light. The price is actually outstanding for the level of quality in the kit! Agreed, the ziplocks are nice; it's good to see them bagging the supplies for organization, to keep the contents dry and to reuse the bags. Storage is always a bonus. The Chlor-Floc is some of the best stuff out there, with an agent that flocculates (ie causes sediments to clump and settle to the bottom). While there's always room for improvement I'd say this kit is one you could actually live out of for 24-48 hours. IMO if it's not enough to survive with on its own then it's not really a survival kit.😘 On that level I'd say this one passes the test.
I look forward to seeing a video of you testing them. That can be a challenge in the winter (do you get winter in Atlanta?). I'm in Bozeman Montana and it's 10 degrees F and snowing right now. 🥶 Getting a shelter up and a fire going is a top priority in those conditions. The Henry US kit would actually give you a decent shot at making it through the night here. When you do test whatever you're going to test, be safe and make sure you have a good backup plan. We all want you to stick around make more videos.😉
Thanks, Rob!
The only thing "Amazing" about the price of this kit is individuals who are crazy enough to pay for it ! They must have more money than common sense
@@MrNatureboy2010 I dunno, I think it's actually a decent value. If you were starting from scratch you could maybe do a little better or might make different choices but given the price of the individual components I think it's realistic. From the collector's POV the Henry-branded tin is pretty cool.
You're nuts if you think this is worth $120. This is targeting people that don't know any better.
@@lonewanderer3603 yes, like Rob!! Lol
Along with those meds, maybe some vitamins would be useful since no food. Maybe some zip ties to use with that blanket to make shelter, etc.
Thank You for the informative video. .
Shoot, a fella' could have a pretty good weekend in Vegas with all that stuff.
It would have been useful to compare with the equivalent Best Glide mess tin kit.
Great review!
I'm not "badmouthing" anything or anybody. Contents checks are nice. But if you want me to believe that something works, SHOW ME *YOU* Someplace..WAY....OUT... THERE.... *Using this kit* . I don't buy into how good something looks spread out on a tabletop in a nice warm room someplace. I'm impressed by how well something functions overall when your life (or someone else's) could be on the line in a REAL Emergency situation. This kit just strikes me as something made for "showroom" use and salesmanship. There is another part to surviving in any situation. How well you can use what you have, and how familiar you are with what you have. This Kit, just from what I see, is weak on two things. 1) useable instructions for anyone who has never used a survival kit and 2) Shelter just to start off. This is a kit you buy to get bits and bobs that you use to make YOUR OWN Kit that is a step up from this. I think if you carry just what I see here, you're going to wind up wishing you had another tin about this size with a whole lot more in it, starting with something that keeps the nasty weather off of you. The real question here is simple. Is this nice box of bits and bobs worth $125, or could you take the same money to a combination of places and put together your own kit that is more complete, without a profit motive tacked onto the price?
Could you review some kits made by survival metrics?
I can only imagine, what would this kit cost, with Louis Vittone logo on it😂! And I bet you lots of people would buy it😂😂😂
Thanks for sharing👍
Which one is better?? This one or the best glide advanced?
Definitely paying for the name with this one.
There are two things I put in my survival tin. A miniature harmonica and money. Just a couple of notes and some coins for parking or a phone call. I'd say the money is the most useful item in the tin, and I've used it on several occasions. I don't think survival has to be dramatic, sometimes its just about making you a bit more comfortable in an unexpected situation.
Money would be of no use in a situation that kit is obviously meant for.
That kit has many flaws, way to many for the cost, but a lack of money isn't one of them. You can't eat money nor can you use it to buy food out in a situation where survival depends on the types of items a kit like this contains. Obviously being offered by a manufacturer of hunting rifles this kit is geared to folks likely to be in hunting situation where they become lost or injured so in that case money would be the most useless item in the kit!
I agree with the last sentence. But this kit would feel cheap to anyone lost in the woods and thirsty for a drink or cold at night. And it wouldnt feel dramatic at all. Like a fire extinguisher.
Loving these reviews!! So, which one is your favorite? Henry? Best Glide ASE advanced? Other?? Thanks!
Diclophenax is a pain killer, often combined with Codein. It also helps with inflamations, but is mostly used when you have an inflamated joint, like in some kind of arthrosis.
Novelty kits my survival kit is a 60 lb back pack loaded.. trama kit and everything. Gun food ect..
I bought a navy medical sling pack at flea market, ive started building it with supplies. These little kits are for cub scouts
That must suck to carry on day hikes
So I have a problem with the placement of the plastic rollers on the latches. if you try and use the tin to cook food or boil water you will melt the rollers which could cause you to lose the seal when you close it up. I feel it would have been better to attach them to the lid rather than the container itself. Other than that I'm really impressed with the kit.
The tins are made from high grade aluminum. I wouldn't be trying to cook with them. Maybe eat a meal from them.
@@LarryDickman1 isn't one of the points of the tin to be able to cook and boil water in? If not then I retract "impressed" part of my comment because that is a TERRIBLE design.
Thanks for the video! Just wondering, can you use the container to cook with?
My kit is a whole medium backpack. Weeks of food in the form of food bars, a mess kit, esbit stove, bundswehr style eating utensils, a water filtration system, a redundant micro water filter, an entrenching tool, a hatchet, a knife, a folding saw, a redundant wire saw, a military flashlight with a metal housing, glow sticks, a few flares, a lighter, magnesium with ferrocite, waterproof matches, firestarting tender, mirror, waterproof notebook, a 2 liter canteen, emergency blanket, emergency bivvy, decent medical kit, and two spare boxes of 9mm ammunition. I also have a 1L canteen with nested kit like a cup and stove, with water purification tablets in the front pocket of the carrier.
My pack is also designed around the concept of NOT being found if you don't want to be.
I don't mind the price, I think it's a decent little kit. But something a lot of good kits are missing is a decent knife and this one does that same thing
And a small fishing kit
@@MarineBiker It does have a small fishing kit, a REALLY small fishing kit, so small in fact you seem to have missed it but it actually does have a couple of hooks, a few feet of lightweight line, etc.
You should already be carrying a better than decent knife on your hip or in your pocket. Come on man!
The ‘thimble thing’ is for threading needles which is apparently a lost art just like surviving in the wilds.
Only to those who let technology rule their whole life.

love these videos!! thanks
Thanks Again For Sharing
Wow, I can assemble all that stuff for about $20.00 bucks....
If that. I have a kit that I put together and it fits in a tin a little larger than this Henry kit. It was under $20 for sure.
120 is a rip
There's no way to put this together for 20.00
No soap?
@@markgibbs904 Wood ash can be used for soap...
Yes, I have to agree with some of the other comments and that this kit is on the pricey side. I think that a true survival kit should be much larger as well like a small back pack where you could survive for about 3 days or so. It should include some high calorie foods such as pemican or a modern version of it.
I think they are all garbage unless you put it together yourself and you actually know how to use each and every piece of gear you put in it. what good is something if you don't know how to use it correctly? At best risk it would be usable for a few hours or even a day but not much longer. But let's face it a person can last a day without the kit. And the best tool you can carry is knowledge
"Pricy side"? It's outrageous. I could put together something like this (minus the tin) from my hunting pack, and I can assure you it didn't total over 100 bucks. It is also pretty under equipped for real survival.
@@rogerleete4635 😅😅🤣🤣🤣😅
That's what I keep telling them. Only Fools and people who don't know what they're doing purchase these kind of kits. Because if you actually know how to use the stuff you can buy the stuff a lot cheaper yourself. But if you don't know how to use the stuff it's no good anyway. This is just a way for people to fail with more confidence. Unfortunately failure often means death in these types of situations. But I guess that's part of natural selection 2. Don't worry everybody I have it covered I have a little tin box I paid way too much money for that will save me... I'm assuming these people are Democrats because they show the same sloppiness and lack of understanding and blind trust to hucksters. People that buy these also buy little metal rods that clip onto their baseball caps to wear as lightning rods it has a little copper wire probably running to their shoe
I like the kit. It has things I didn't think of...like the rubber tube and the map bag
Thanks for sharing!
Surgical tube. Because you never know if you're gonna score some smack in the apocalypse.
Ha
Yeah, movies also crooked my view of this item.
But thinking about it... i have a LOT of practical uses, Even something absurd, at first glance, like making slingshot for hunting small prey.
@@BSOE3058 Exactly what i was thinking.
First thing i thought of was wrist rockets when i was a kid... we raised so much hell using almonds in those things... so many broken bottles.... so many...
I would love to see a non professional “survive” with only this kit. That would make for good TV. “How to die in the woods”.
Ever see/try one of those saws for wood that had to O-rings on the ends to cut your own wood... easier to just burn the whole tree down.
yeah, those plastic blankets are junk if there is any wind at all the movement of air will suck out all of your body heat and you will die... makes a good cover to keep the rain/snow off of you. thats about it... unless it just makes your body easier to find cause its shiny.
Even professionals can't survive more than 87 days by themselves, just watch the survival show Alone and you'll find out, the max anyone has lasted was 87 days, while he won he didn't have much time left before he would died, others that lost did so by injury, losing too much weight, loneliness, or illness. The guy that lasted the longest, those 87 days, he had lost 70 pounds from his original 223 pounds, another 25 pounds and he would have damaged his kidneys, heart, etc from starvation and eventually would have died.
@@Rekmeyata you're wrong. There are plenty of people that has lived in the woods almost their whole life without coming out. You just don't know about them because they want nothing to do with the rest of us. A girl grew up in Russia in the woods and her entire family died when she was around 30-40. She lived by herself out there for about 30+ years.
@@KeweenawPatriot And then you find out that those people got help from others or stole what they needed from others. You don't have to believe me, just watch the show ALONE on TH-cam or on the History channel, the record is 87 days and that contestant lost 70 pounds during that time which was a third of his body weight. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alone_(TV_series) And these contestants have vast experience with survival, they're not people like you or me who have limited knowledge of survival. So you tell me how trained survivalists can't last long yet some girl lives in the forest for 30 years with no experience in survival prior to choosing to living in the forest survives for over 30 years.
Good to see most of the items are made in the US. 👍🏻
back in the seventies i had a survival kit with similar items, with no torch I also carried a canteen and glucose tablets,
Kits like this always seem to be missing some of what I would consider the absolute bare minimum. This one does seem better than a lot I’ve seen but still missing some of those essentials.
Thanks for telling my what to put in a survival kit. I’ll make a better one for 15.00.
Its most important to provide for the things you cannot live without and cannot improvise.
Go test these kits! 👍🏼
For $125 there should be a pocket knife in there. Other than that its a sweet kit. Great review!
When is Henry gonna make a volcanic type lever action pistol?
Great channel. VIDEO IDEA. A suggestion.... I see a lot of the same or very similar equipment in many of the kits. Would like to see a video of the practicality and usage of some of these items. And do some of these CHEAP survival items actually work. Will they break after one use or not even do the task it was intended. Example ov video...
Wetting compact towels.
Using signal mirrors.
Filter water.
Purify water.
Use a cheap wire saw.
Very simple stuff... but very useful if you have never played with this stuff... seams like common sense. But common sense does not always exist when you are in a survival situation. I attended navy SERE and Airforce advance SERE. Much of the stuff seams simple .... but if you have never done it before..... that one thing could make a big difference if the time comes. I was hypothermic and frostbiten in school. When hypothermia sets in..... the smallest things become impossible. Sorry prolly TMI. Keep up the good work.
Thanks for your time be well I liked it
I want to know how they roll the duck tape like that, I'd like to make a few of them. They look neater to carry than the MacGyver specials I have now.
Yeah I roll my duct tape or gorilla tape around a pencil and then like cut it off on both ends. Sometimes it does look a little haphazard
@@cardiacbob Cheers for that, I knew I'd missed something obvious.😊
