🇺🇸🙋♀️🐴🍃 Great kit, you thought of everything! I wonder what you think about using strips of bike tire rubber on the Altoid box instead of tape?
@@becca318 or both?
I'm late to make a timely comment, but believe me, with only some small deviation, (color of the Condor pouch, Band-Aids)
your load out is exactly the same as mine! No kidding.
Oh well, great minds think alike. 😁👍
Thanks for another great/informative vid.
@@svravenflintlock7526 .. Sure if you want it that way. Just thinking the rubber would last longer is all.
Have you thought about using hot glue to attach the compass to the outside, and maybe a mirror? They sell that stick on rear view mirror you can easily cut to size.
You could also glue on a button thermometer. And glue the match Striker on the inside. Maybe the back inside or side wall. I know a small fire Striker could be glued to the outside somewhere, one of the ends? It would open up the inside for more room.
An extremely well thought out kit. One small suggestion for those on a budget. Walmart has rolls of mirror duct tape. Peel off a piece and stick it on a piece of thin cardboard. Something like a cereal box. It works extremely well. Takes up almost no space. You can even cut a hole in the center for directional signaling. Plus it's really cheap. You can make a ton of them for pennies.
Great idea!
Good idea and for very little weight. Useful to have two to check your back for ticks etc. For sun signaling it's useful to have 2 if you are trying to shine to someone in front of you if the sun is behind you, otherwise the useful area is very small as it's so oblique.
But for signalling any distance, mirrors have to be VERY flat. Either glass or the thick plastic ones made for the job. The one in my Suunto compass is pretty useless for signalling a long way as the light would spread out too much.
I have 50 years of bushcrafting ( even before that was a word, or what it was called) experience, 10 years in the ARMY as a paratrooper, and spent several months alone in the mountains of Alaska. I have said before, and I repeat it here. with a kit that size ( and even more so the "Altoids tin kits" ) that if you could survive a situation with that kit, you would almost certainly survive nearly as comfortably with out it. if you are going into the woods, a small lightweight haversack with an actually functional kit that includes something to keep you off the ground ( convection is more dangerous than exposure to cold air in the same temperatures ) something to keep weather off of you ( in the form of a small tarp, with ways to pitch it into a shelter) a full sized fixed blade knife, and a way to gather, disinfect, and carry water ( a steel bottle, preferably with a steel nesting cup) would actually effect your survivability. I have shown on my channel more than one way to pack a kit filling all of these needs in a very easy to carry, comfortable kit that usually comes in under 5 lbs dry ( but EVERY kit I make has a steel water bottle and nesting cup) I know it is trendy, and makes for a lot of views, but this kind of "kit" is likely to cause more harm than good. you also do not address that the very best gear on the planet can not help you if you do not have the training, and skills to use it effectively. if you have read this far, I want to say, I am not trying to call you out specifically, just stating that in reality, most of the items in this type of kit are more fluff than substance. one thing I will call you out on specifically is the several mentions of suturing. 1) an untrained person should never try to suture a wound. 2) the cordage in paracord is not suitable for this at all and is very likely to just destroy the skin around the wound causing further harm. and 3) sewing a wound closed with out cleaning it properly is almost certainly going to cause severe infections, that are often much worse than the original wound.
Thanks for watching the video and for sharing your opinions. Have a great day and I will check out your channel and look for that video.
AMAZING...The amount of needed items that you stuffed in an ALTOIDS container and then into a small Condor Pouch... AMAZING ...GOD BLESS YOU ALL🙏
Yes, I agree!!😊
Thanks so much!
I also agree he should go for the world record how many people he can fit in Volkswagen Beetle Bug just joking you know I've been enjoying all the Waypoint survival videos starting with the hobo series
What a great little kit!!
Also that trick candle is inspired, never thought about them being used for a survival situation but it's a candle that reignites itself, it's a no brainer!
Thanks, glad you liked it!
I keep the following in my belt, especially during travel
Lighter
Mini compass
Mini flashlight
Flint
Paracord
Whistle
Saw blade
Mini glow sticks
Gunpowder
Cord and bolt weapon (improvised)
Self igniting candle
Cotton buds
Nasal inhaler
Alcohol
Medicine pills (6 different kind.... aspirin, anti inflammatory,anti bacterial, antihistamine, anti motility and antacid)
Band aid
Insect repellent
Water purification tablet
Amulet/lucky charm
I keep most of these hidden in the zipper compartment of my belt, and some are inside a small pouch hanging attached in the belt itself.
I learned in this video the genius use of water filter straw, aluminum foil and extra battery. I would also like to add a mini USB, just in case
That's a pretty cool and efficient little package not to mention how much you got in that package. I bet you pack real efficient if you're going on a trip. Thanks for the video James you always come up with some of the coolest stuff. May God bless you and yours
Thanks so much, my friend! God bless you too!
That's an amazing amount of stuff in such a little pouch. Well done.😊
Thanks for watching and I'm glad you liked it!
@@WayPointSurvival I added in my compact survival kit a small 22 LR 5-shot NAA mini
revolver loaded with CCI shotshells for protection against venomous
snakes. Thanks for the nice informative video, James.
I can see how much thought and effort went into making this kit. Amazing! Thank you for sharing with us! 😊
Thanks so much for watching!
Watching this I got the idea to add a laminated card with jokes and other morale boosters. In the times that I have had to dig into my survival kit, I have always had something like a flute or harmonica. Now, to find a curiously small equivalent for this curiously strong survival kit 🧐
Right!
A great kit you have assembled. We especially appreciate the heads-up about the outdoor mosquito patch product. We have not seen or heard of that before. In the tropics, many of our skeeters carry bad things like malaria and dengue fever. When a local government says "There is no dengue in this area" and then a grade-schooler who never traveled futher than between home and school during the school year contracts the disease, we think it prudent to always protect yourself. Hopefully, a local pharmacy or sporting goods shop will stock it or be able to order the product. I think it will be very popular among the outdoor set here. Thank you James for another superior video.
Excellent! I'm glad that you liked it and found it useful!
Love how ALL of that stuff fits in the Altoids tin...like a ship in a bottle.
Right, lol!
Love the fact that you have included the heavy foil. I have the same in my survival kit. This is a really great kit. My kit that is similar uses 2 pouches, but I included some lifeboat water, a larger first aid kit & some emergency lifeboat rations, but many of my items are the same as yours.
Excellent!
Hi from the UK. Really enjoyed the video. I am sure we all look at ready made survival kits and think how we could all do better at a fraction of the cost. This is solid evidence of the fact. All the materials are easily sourced and affordable plus some good little improvisations.
Thanks so much and I'm glad that you enjoyed the video!
Wow, you have a LOT of essential stuff packed into that little kit! Amazing.
Thanks!
I enjoy your channel where you instruct how to do things to help ourselves. Not always trying to sell something. Also all you do is Faith based.
Thanks!
No whistle. The lighter top should be protected so it doesn't discharge.
Good kit.
I always carry a whistle on my keyring so that would be redundant. The lighter top is in no danger of discharging. I've carried a Bic lighter in my pocket for years and never had a problem with the gas leaking out from the lever being depressed and I carry a lot of other things in that same pocket as well.
That Altoids tin was like a clown car. Good stuff as usual. Thanks.
Lol. Thanks for watching!
The only thing I did to a similar kit is to make the flashlight less prone to loss or damage. If any of my lights don’t come with an attachment point I just use a small Dremel bit from the inside to the outside. You can bend a jumbo paper clip through it and wrap it in duct tape. Cut a piece off of a friction strip and wrap it around the barrel for extra grip. The know the friction strips you put on your walkway during the winter to prevent falls. And always keep your lights inside your clothes when winter comes. Standard alkaline batteries simply don’t like the cold. It don’t work very well when it gets near to freezing.
Keeping your flashlight secure is always a good idea. About the batteries, that's why I like the Energizer lithiums as they are far more durable and long-lasting in the various weather conditions.
@@WayPointSurvival That’s one video I’d like you to do. Ways you could help avoid mechanical injuries in the field. That’s why I’m a big believer in lanyards to help secure your gear. No piece of gear is worth your life. I assume you’ve covered plenty of tips on how to stay safe in the woods. One of the first tips I learned is to make sure your walking stick / hiking staff your height or higher. Make it shorter and you will run the risk of impaling yourself on it in a fall. I use a cloth luggage strap connected to a metal shower curtain ring. To the ring I can simply connect a carabiner connected to a wrist strap. The carabiner can be connected to my belt and the strap buried in my cargo pants pocket. You can also use the carabiner like a clamp to hold the wrist strap to the and of your sleeve or just inside the collar of your shirt. That makes it a 4 way carry item. I saw a couple of small bags years ago for carrying a small USB memory stick. It was just big enough to hold six AAA batteries. I tied them to the outside of of my flashlight. That gave me spare batteries I could find in a instant day or night.
I like the thought & effort put into this kit. There are a few things you mention I don’t think I have ever seen before. It looks like this is being used in combination with your everyday carry items like the multitool you have (one of the things I was going to suggest until I saw you had one). If you were going to use this as a stand alone pack not including items like a knife, flashlight or multitool you have on you, I would personally swap out the knife for a backlock knife. They are generally inexpensive (you can buy good budget locking knives for $20 or less) and can really go to work like a fixed blade without fear of seriously cutting yourself. I would also trade the flash light for a light that has settings for low lumen. This kit seems to be geared toward survival in the wilderness. In that case, I would rather have a flash light I can run on the lowest setting for like 70 hours instead of a light that only has a high setting and burns out in 10. The only reason I bring this up is these are the items as well as a multitool that you are most likely to actually use/need.
Thanks for watching and for your suggestions.
The trick birthday candle, is quite the "TRICK"
Thanks.
Well thought out and organized. Only things I would do differently is packing the signal mirror and fresnel lens on the top, and adding a whistle which is also readily accessible. I would rather signal for rescue as soon I was in trouble and hopefully get found/rescued before I would need to survive for an extended or indefi6 period.
I always carry a whistle on my keychain and so that would be a redundant item. Also, the reason that the mirror and Fresnel lens is packed in the bottom, is that they are flat and fit better in that position.
@@WayPointSurvival One is none and two is one, so redundancy isn't a bad thing. Especially if you aren't alone and it's you and at least one other personI in a survival situation dependent on that one kit, or if the first whistle gets lost or stops working for some odd reason. I understand that the lens and mirror are flat, which is why they'd also fit well up in the lid of the tin. At least just the mirror, just to have something to signal with readily accessible. Another simple solution would be to sand, smooth, and polish the outside bottom of the tin, making the tin itself a signaling mirror.
Now you are gonna make me look at my camera bag survival kit that can fit on your belt... Thanks Jimmy!
Excellent, I'm glad that you enjoyed the video!
Nice little kit. Thank you so much for sharing. I got a couple of ideas on how to make my kit better. God bless and stay safe.
Excellent, God bless you too!
That's a real cool kit.
Thanks!
I use lithium batteries in all my camping/bug out gear because they will hold their charge like you said and work in extreme well in cold weather as well.
Indeed!
I would replace the Bic lighter with a Clipper lighter as it can be refilled with butane and the striker can be removed to use it as a striker wheel if out of fuel, and being that it price is the same as that of a Bic you can't go wrong with a Clipper.
Thanks for the suggestion.
For the total overall size of the pouch, this is one of the best survival kits I've seen! Great job! 👍 Thank you for sharing!
Thanks!
I wouldn’t think there would be so much in such a small bag 🎉🎉🎉🎉
Mine is VERY similar to yours. Basically, different pouch. The rest is about the same, except my knife for my kit ia a V Victorinox Huntsman. It has 7 sharp edges between blades and tools that can cut, slice, saw, or rip. My pouch is a tad smaller. Its contents are specifically made for my personal skillset. Has the ingredients to attain all the primary needs, if you have the skills to utilize contents. Nice kit man. You did well. Thanks for sharing. Ben
Thanks so much for watching the video and for sharing your kit!
I think you are correct; it is the perfect belt survival kit. I like the fact that you have a water container in that small a kit. Nice job.
Thanks!
The idea of using the trick candles is inspired, that would never have occurred to me in a million years.
Thanks for watching!
As a survival kit builder/enthusiast here are some thoughts on this kit. (My favorite is still the surplus pouch w/the small loaf pan from several years ago)
•2019 I substituted out Altoids tins in favor of the same vessel/box but slightly larger. Approx 3/4” around with an additional 1/2” in depth. Amazon sells 3-packs for around $12
•Love that you included a casualty blanket for quality cover. The single ply mylar “space blankets” are overrated for thermoregulation & too easy to tear. Were I carrying that belt kit I’d add another 3 mil contractors bag folded in my back pocket in case weather called for a poncho & cover simultaneously.
•For mini kits I started using 275 cord to facilitate 20-25 feet of cordage along with a shorter hank of 550 (for its multi use value) Also re-lacing one’s boots w/ 550 cord that’s extra long is a win/win. Same goes for bracelets, belts & neck lanyards
⚠️Note to all⚠️Water purification tablets must be stored in plastic or glass (like James did) They immediately corrode many metal containers
•Signaling: I’d plus it w/ a 4inch chem stick to facilitate a “Ranger buzz saw” at night & a green laser pointer pen (Amazon $14) Probably slide in or dangle a tiny whistle in too
As a student of Mors, Les Stroud, Dave Canterbury, Dave “Heyyyy everyyybodyy” & Ranger Survival & Fieldcraft my new approach is “a tool and a snack in every pocket.” Like most men I can’t stand the feeling of bulging pockets so I build accordingly: front pockets maybe just a folder knife, lighter & hard candies etc…If a well prepared trekker utilizes each pocket in trousers, jacket, blouse, vest & even their hat, while always seeking convenient space to add calories, it’s easy to carry 3k calories on one’s person when wearing the right clothing. Too many survival instructors undersell the importance of calories. God forbid you get stuck in the wilderness for a week. But if you do it is what you have ON your person that will be there to help build a camp, keep you healthy & get you out. A belt kit is a great way to ensure that needed tools are there. Add calories to each pocket. Small bags of nuts. Jerky. Snickers bars. Cliff bars. Hard candies. Sausage snacks. Little kids cheese n crackers.
In hardcore survival situations caffeine headaches & insomnia are commonly reported maladies so I wear one of the brightly colored pill capsules around my neck containing: green tea caffeine tablets 200mg, Benadryl, Ibuprofen, aspirin & immodium. Amazon sells spun aluminum capsules with an O ring that hold 9-12 pills for $4. Super easy to throw on some para cord along with a ferro rod and wear as a necklace. Forget it’s there until you need it. All in all James’s belt kit is a great template from which people can learn, build their own & have fun. God bless everyone 🙏🏻
Lots of great ideas here and thanks so much for posting them!
I love watching Altoid tin videos and even made a few. That is by far the most impressive one.
Thanks so much!
Great kit. I'm going back through my edc, but thinking about utilizing a spare ammo pouch. Thank you for another great video. God bless you and your family.
Excellent, God bless you too!
One thing I am lacking on is water purification. I better get on that. Good looking kit there. Great video as usual
Thanks so much, my friend! I'm glad that you enjoyed it!
I like it,
It would be easy to make it cross-border/airport friendly 👍🏻
Indeed!
Go with a p51 it's a little longer so it makes it easier to use.
Sure, you could do that.
@@WayPointSurvival good video thanks
It's amazing how much survival stuff can be carried in a small pack or pouch. That was cool and even in urban settings, a small pouch on the belt doesn't garner much attention or suspicion from paranoid people.
I used to wear a waist pack and I carried two folding knives, an emergency rain poncho from Dollar Tree, an emergency blanket, a lighter, matches, flashlight, sunglasses, etc.
I'd probably include an emergency poncho and compact water filter as I have some better gear now. There's no excuse not to have a few small compact kits. Most of the items are small and light. I need to build myself a new kit to carry.
Thanks for watching and I'm glad you liked it!
I know Bic is a well established brand, but if you can get your hands on one, definitely try a Clipper lighter for comparison. They´re a bit smaller so they take up less space in a kit, the guard around the flame is a higher so it´s slightly more wind proof, but most importantly the striker assembly is a self contained component you can pull out of the lighter to use separately. The easiest way to do this is to put it in its slot backwards so you still have the lighter´s body as handle, but you could also use it as ignitor for a survival tin you put together. In that case I´d recommend you swap out the striker wheel though, as it can be a bit difficult to turn with little to hold on to.
Thanks for watching and for the recommendation!
Clippers are more of an insanely more affordable version of other survival lighters. You can harvest the flints from drained Bics to use in a Clipper. They’re also easily refillable. If you have a campsite to keep butane that is well-lit to deal with springs and such, do it. For the last-ditch survival kit, you will want a brand new Bic.
Very nice survival ready kit 👍👍 Best of luck for your adventures 💥💫
Thank you!
Like the pouch and flashlight. I could easily make use of them.
Excellent!
Outstanding! I love to tetris my altoids tin too, but yours is REALLY impressive. Keep up the good work 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Thanks so much!
This is almost exactly what I've got, and I wear it whenever I'm not in my house or car. These days, anything can happen at anytime!
Excellent!
Excellent video, as always. 🙂
Things to add:
01. A critical missing component: SOAP!
What good are band-aids, sutures, ointments, etc if you haven't cleaned the wound? (Are your shots, especially tetanus, up to date?)
02. I'm hearing bankline is an excellent replacement for paracord. Just as strong yet more compact if nothing else. Thoughts?
03. Meds.
- Imodium or other anti-diarrheal. Why does EVERY bushcraft/ camping/ suruvival instructor on youtube miss this? Many will have tourniquets and not have poop control!
- Prescription meds. Supposedly, 70% the US population requires prescription daily. Replace regulary, of course.
An effective soap can be made with just water and charcoal. Bank line is okay but it doesn't have all of the inner strands. 6 ft of paracord will give you 6 ft of 200 lb test outer sheathing and 84 ft of 25 lb test innner line. There are natural things that you can use for medicinal needs and of course whatever prescription meds you need to be on should be in there. This kit is for me everyone needs to modify it to their own abilities.
That is concentrated ingenuity concentrated! Love it.
Thanks!
Impressive for size. Nicely done .
Thanks!
I always smash the thumbs up at the beginning, James. BC I know it's going to be good!
Thanks so much!
Thanks so much James, I will buy this great kit right now.
Excellent!
Trick candles. One thing that is a damn good addition. 🎉
Thanks, glad you liked it!
Wow, excellent tip on removing the wrapper on a Bic to see fuel level.
Thanks!
I'd add super glue and a tourniquet as well for first aid along with an emergency Poncho paired with an emergency bivy bag or tarp for shelter.
Sure, you could do that.
This video is awesome and I can't believe how much you put into an Altoids tin ( I have about 50 ) thank you for sharing I enjoy your knowledge. .. Jerry Roe . Northeast Tennessee
Thanks so much for watching and I'm glad that you enjoyed it!
Way point is the rite point
Thanks!
Probably the best Altoids kit I've ever seen!
Only substitution I would make would be head lamp for flashlight so could work hands-free
Thanks so much! This flashlight could be adapted to fit onto a headband which could probably be fashioned from the paracord.
I like it. I live in the Great Basin. It us the most unusual environment for survival. Very very diverse skills are needed. However, that being said. My Pop told me when the strange crap happens generally all U have is what's in your pocket to manage it. So the bigger and more full your pocket is the better. Nice Job.
Thanks!
On my belt I only have a Victorinox pouch with a Victorinox tinker, a pre-threaded needle sealed in a straw and an original model Niteize doohicky.
My real EDC survival kit is in a Maxpedition pouch in the front compartment of my backpack, I call it the OLOK psk (One Litre, One Kilo), whick is designed as a ‘stuck outdoors overnight in bad weather here in Montreal’ and doubles as my get home bag.
Show you love wildlife, hug a porcupine today !
Excellent kit!
Nice vid , as usual James. Did you know that you can use 14500 Li rechargeable 3.7v batteries in the kree light? I have used my edc kree with 3.7v batteries for over 5 years with no apparent damage, what a difference in brightness!!!! Thanx, Sam
Excellent idea!
Nice kit as always, thanks. I use an old garmin gps case (the garmin broke). I keep the fresnal lense and signal mirror in my phone case. The back of the mirror is painted with glow in the dark paint and the phone case is clear so the paint can charge. I would add a whistle to this kit. I also liked the the oldtime kit with the cork .
Thanks so much!
Need to save this video for a revisit. Well done.
Thanks, I'm glad that you liked it!
Just rewatched this video, still ausome thanku
Thanks so much, my friend!
Interesting. Work can take me almost 300 miles from home on any given day. So my get home bag is actually 2 bags. I have an old Fox Outdoor canvas Australian army rucksack knockoff that I waterproofed and a discontinued Rothco sling bag. Both are getting a little old, so thinking of up grading with something new. Because I can be so far away from home if something happens, they've become more like camping bags. This video reminds me of how I use to just use a military messenger bag. I really need to go through my stuff and condense.
Excellent. Thanks for watching!
Great video James. Thank you.
An oven bag also works great for a water container.
Great Stuff. Greetings from England, love your channel, budding bushcrafter here, learnt loads from your videos.
Thanks so much!
Get an Army belt with the canvas snap pockets all round makes best way to carry needs.
Those do indeed work well.
I think these survival / emergency kits are a must for everyone. I have seen all types and they are all area designed for emergency use. The only thing I never see anyone comment on is have they ever had to use them and were they glad to have had them ? If so tell us why .
I think that most people who are intelligent enough to put together a survival kit are also intelligent enough to not generally get into a survival situation where they need them.
@@WayPointSurvival yes, that’s one way of looking at it. It is always best to have it and not need it. We should rename it the Just in case kit.
Thats a pretty comprehensive kit, thanks for posting it.
If I may speak from personal experience, if you're in a situation where you really need the alcohol pad and bandage or butterfly strip for a hand or finger wound, things will get pretty messy and time consuming taking all the tape off the altoids tin and rummaging thru the tightly packed contents. Ask me how I know!
I have since taken to keeping the first aid contents in a seperate ziplock bag, double rubber banded to the outside of the altoids tin. I also include a tiny tube of super glue which is great for closing wounds that a bandaid or butterfly strip can't handle.
The rubber bands can be pretty useful, too.
Good point! Thanks so much for watching the video!
Neet. Gave me some ideas for my own custom made kit. It is also possible to stuff a parachord bracelet with an astounding amount of small handy items.
Excellent!
I have the condor utility pouch. It's a bit bulky but I have everything I need. Wuben flashlight, gerber multi-tool, tactical pen, first aid kit, sawyer water filter, lighter, solar powered charger, tweezers, hemostats, signal mirror, disinfectant wipes, duct tape, metal survival cards with hooks and needles, etc... The guys at work ask me why I carry it... But when they need something, they come to me. I keep telling them to just make one. Carry what you need and need what you carry.
Excellent, sounds like a great kit!
Great info! Love the 1790 series. Hope to train with you someday!
Thanks so much! We are continuing to film for episode 16. We would love to have you come out and take some classes!
Hey thats a nice kit...I have most of that in mine...
I have a needle with dental floss already threaded plus i have a very thin electric guitar string rolled up tight for my snare wire..I made my own strike anywhere matches out of Fat Wood and covered them with fingernail polish to waterproof them.. And a small one time use Super Glue ..All that and much more fits in my Altoid can..I bought a bike tire tube and cut it into quarter inch thick strips to hold the can closed..
PEACE....
Excellent. Thanks for watching!
Hello 👋 James, greetings from Northern California. Thank you for sharing this informative video. Your kit contains just about everything you need for an emergency. Stay safe out there. 🤗 👋
Thanks so much, my friend!
you know James an old timer told me once the only perfection is imperfection!! that kit is a little small for me i've got some belt pouches that go 4x6 or 7 that i prefer for a belt kit and i go for duracells myself i got burned by energizer before and don't trust them!ever do a wallet fishing kit before? i was showed that a couple years back you take a business card or a piece of plastic card and clamp some split shot on it tape your hooks on it and wrap your line over all of it.i wasn't told to do this way but i taped over the whole thing too!
Thanks so much for watching and for the wallet fishing kit idea! I think I will use that in a future video!
@@WayPointSurvival have at it James! as a matter of fact anything i add you can use for a vid or project feel free to use it and pass it on! that's the way this thing is supposed to work!
What the hell? It didn't end, it just didn't end! And everythint so well thought through! Big respect!
Thanks so much, glad you liked it!
Lots of good info. A personal observation,all the kits I see on many channels none of them include a Whistle. Very important to help you be found. You can Never Yell or Scream Loud or Long enough to be heard. Just a thought.
I always carry one on my key ring, so it's not necessary.
Trick birthday candle, brilliant idea.
Glad you liked it!
The biggest thing to have for survival is knowledge of the environment around you. Birch water in the spring ...Long horn sumac for vitamins (steeped under boiling temps) Snare traps Multi size fish hooks Life straw And boiling water - Knowing to stay away from swamps/still water Getting your body off the cold ground (young spruce branches) Laying down Arrows pointing in the direction you are headed Plants to eat
True.
finally a kit with a trick candle been preaching that one for years thank you 👍
Thanks, glad you liked it!
Great vid and awesome kit! You gotta do a follow up vid where ya crack open the kit and put it to the test in a hypothetical 24hr scenario.
Thanks for watching and for the suggestion.
I Always carry also few broth cubes (idk how you call them in english) they give some nutrients but mostly for comfort
Yes, that's always a great idea as long as you can keep the sodium content from rusting your gear.
That was an incredible kit James! I have 2 pouches similar to that and I know what one of them is going to be used for now! Always great content from you brother, NEVER disappointed!!! Can't wait to see what you come up with next! May God bless you and your family always! Until next time my friend, stay safe!
Thanks so much for watching and I'm really glad that you liked the little survival kit! God bless you and yours as well!
Excellent small kit
Thanks!
Another great review brother.Thanks for sharing.
Thanks so much for watching!
Just fantastic, I always feel that I have forgotten to put something in my kit. I will try this kit.
Excellent!
That's a lot of stuff in a small pouch wow.
I use the Helikon Sere as a belt pouch, it seems full just with keys and a sak in. 😂
Thanks, glad you liked it!
Great Kit! Thanks James! From Annapolis MD, signing out!
Awesome! Thank you and I'm glad you liked it!
Amazing job putting that kit together. And you explained quickly, simply and well. Looking forward to your next video as I catch up on what I've truly been missing. You are appreciated
Thanks so much!
Great little kit!!

James Once Again Another Great Video and Thanks For Caring and Sharing My Friend! Have A Blessed Day and Keep Up the Awesome Work.
Thanks so much, my friend! You too!
Bang on and very well thought out kit
Thanks so much!
A lot of neat little toys, but the first two items that any survival kit should have is something to eat and drink.
Most people can easily go 30 days without eating anything so that's not important. This kit has several items which will allow you to procure clean water to drink.
i love you man you are the kinda guy where i just wanna be your friend. your a really cool dude!
Cardboard, use an old throw away credit card, its rigidity can be far more useful scraping or flating that stiff foil
Thanks for watching.
Nicely done Sir…compact and comprehensive!!!
Thanks!
Great kit….I don’t understand the usefulness of the altoid tin itself. It’s well packed but I’ve changed to a heavy ziplock bag. I’ve also eliminated the concept of snaring and fishing…in current times the likelihood of needing to provide wild food is exceedingly small. I’ve changed my kits to focus on shelter ,no fail fire starting,and simple water purification. And a few jolly ranchers.
The tin is useful because it forces you to pack into a small space and it also protects your gear.
Thanks James, that’s a nice little kit.
Thank you!
Nice kit, but I think there are some ways to help you get through a night that could fit in their in lieu of a few things, I did like your mosquito repellent, I will probably steal that idea for some of my current kits
Thanks for watching!
Excellent pouch, I have one similar attached to my edc bag. Condor doesn’t get enough attention, I have an edc pouch by condor that I’ve been carrying for a couple of years now that’s served me well and it’s just as good as the maxpedition equivalent.
Great video sir, always look forward to what you’re sharing with us each week.
Thanks so much! They do indeed make some pretty credible gear.
