- I recently watched a video on Ranger Survival And Field Craft's channel titled "Ultimate Coffee Can Survival Kit". I thought it was done really well and wanted to challenge myself to make something similar. So this is my rendition of the ultimate coffee can survival kit! I tried to include items from all the groups Ranger Survival and Field Craft mentioned in his video.
Here is a link to his video:

I normally scoff at these coffee can kits. This has got to be one of the best, most thought out kits I've seen in a long time. Outstanding!
Came back to watch a second time. Definitely a well thought out kit!
Wow lot of stock nice👍
Excellent! Earlier tonight, before finding this video, I found 2 empty sweet wafer cans similar to yours., which I brought inside to hold my emergency kit components. I plan on making my own kit after studying the Ranger version & yours several times. A military P-38 can opener would provide back-up to the one on the Swiss Army Knife. Thanks for sharing.
great kit
Absolutely awesome kit. Very well thought out, and I think this can give a lot of people some really good ideas on how to prepare for themselves. If I may be so bold, I have just a few minor suggestions: 1) Pack the signal mirror and whistle at the top, and perhaps loop both on a length of cord sized right to be worn around your neck because if you do become lost or stranded, the first 72 hours from when you get reported missing is when the search and rescue teams will be the most active and are the most crucial for your survival. It's better to be rescued than rough it.
2) In your fishing kit, pre tie a few inches of leader to at least one fishing hook since health and weather conditions may make threading the eye of a hook nearly impossible. Same would apply to a sewing needle if one is included, just a few feet of thread on a pre threaded needle can really help.
3) The only addition to the kit I would add is a few paper coffee filters to help strain out any muck from the water you intend to sterilize or boil.
Really like the mention of the importance of redunancy. I think many, as well as myself, have taken away some really good ideas and insights from you. Thanks and keep up the good work.
GREAT! kit... maybe a bandanna is what i'd add and call it good. 👌
I too watched Ranger Survival video and was remembering coffee can survival tins were a thing in the 70s.. man, the contents have sure changed. buck knife, bag of rice, salt tabs, matches, razor blade, tin foil... lol memories
Crazy to think about
An orange bandana would help very useful. Plus a garbage bag. Two items i would want. Good kit man. Thanks for sharing. Now a sub👍
I just lived and "SURVIVED" yet another hurricane here on the Gulf Coast of Texas.
Im sitting here thinking of all the things we needed to make it through the storm and then the days later of not having any electricity and therefore no running water.
Funny thing.....most of what you have in that can....I never needed. The bug spray, yeah. Oh yes!
Could you perhaps explain a situation where the elements of your survival system would be used?
Interesting and informative.
This is quite interesting and informative. Thank you for sharing.
Very well done! You covered all the survivability priorities although a little weak on the food. I would add a Cliff bar or Millennium bar. Really nice kit brother! Thanks!
Wow I thought I was good at packing. 👍
this came up in my recommended feed..already watched.it...had a thought. would it be a good idea to maybe use the paracord to make a carrying strap with? like a basket type to throw over your shoulder? and a bandana would be mint...
yer the bandana was the first thing i though of too and maybe a spare battery for the torch
I loved your idea on the paracord strap.
Really surprising how all that fits into that container..Thanks for sharing
I love survival stuff. You never know when you’ll need something
Excellent. I agree with your item selection on the whole. Recommend a wide mouth, single-walled water bottle as the container (thrift stores have tons of these!), and perhaps a very small water filter as you’ll probably be sweating a lot in the emergency situ! Thanks for sharing your concept with us!
Another good option if finding the right bottle around is difficult is to get a clean kanteen 64 ounce wide mouth bottle its a good option albeit runs 30$ or so but its another option.
Hi from the UK. Really enjoyed the video. I watch all the videos I can regarding survival kits and while all have merit, I often think about what I would add or leave out. This is probably the first that I would make NO changes to at all. I am a great believer in the 'Two is one' philosophy as well.
Thanks!
Giving me some ideas. Something like this could be a good idea for bringing on a backpacking trip.
Well done and creative!
Good mix of items and a lot of redundancy.
Amazing ideas...
Great idea
Nice job, very good video. You gave me a few new ideas for my kits.
Pretty good kit. Nice job!👌
A good idea is to add more tiny fire starters, I use coton mixed with candle wax, it works amazing, also another idea is to have some cotton bandana to create char material with the can
Excellent job, great kit, well thought out.
Thanks!
Nice video. If I am going to carry a kit that big, I would go with a Nalgene bottle and slip a stainless steel cup and cup stove on the end. It can then fit in a pouch and be carried on your belt. Good Luck, Rick
Cracking kit, definitely covered all the bases and good advice 👍 have a good weekend, keep safe. Paul
Nice kit list. Surprising how much you can pack in such a can.
I’m trying to find a #10 coffee can to remake it in. That way I can actually use the cab for boiling water. Thanks for watching.
Looks pretty solid!👍
Good job I would like I would like to see more regional survival kits made to not all environments are the same all through the country
nice kit...would you have room for a garbage bag? extra shelter couldn't hurt...and maybe some bank line...
FYI, Put some aluminum tap in your kit and make a foil pot to cook in with tap on bottom, check out aluminum foil pots and cups. Lots of room for straw containers.
I've been wanting to go backpacking this would be a good fit for it
There’s a slightly different philosophy for backpacking.
A survival kit kit is something set aside if things go wrong and you’re separated from your main kit. It’s packed and sealed in such a way that it’s on your person at all times but not used routinely. Back in the day we used 2 oz tobacco tins that could fit in one pocket of our combat jackets.
For backpacking it might be better to have what bushcrafters in the UK call a ‘possibles’ kit, which is a collection of the useful and necessary things you need to take hiking. It’s not a special kit kept sealed and separated.
Put another way, a survival kit is to get you OUT of the wild: a possibles kit is the stuff you take INTO the wild.
I thought this was an excellent kit though.
Well thought out kit the only thing I would do. Is add a few glucose tabs for a little pick me up and a couple trick birthday candles to help with fire. Also I’d go right below the rolled down top edge of the can and make a small hole on each side for a bail. The lid will cover them and it’s easier at home. Just my 2 cents but what do I know I’m just a dumbass behind a keyboard.
A bandana and your complete great kit
I tried for the bandana and the tin was just too full to add it. I could possibly put it under the paracord on the outside though.
Great Kit. I would add an extra battery for flashlight and put in a wide mouth water bottle instead. Not as much room perhaps but better for storing water and boiling as somebody mentioned. Might also want to consider Pepto Bismol for first aid. Not fun if you are stranded with stomach ailments. Otherwise awesome job. Will look at your other videos.
Great kit! You have room for a spoon and fishing kit.
There was a fishing kit included.
@@NEP_Chris sorry missed that, I'll rewatch!
Nice kit and video! How about adding a Frontier filter straw to augment your water bag and purification tablets? I think it might fit with a little reorganization. Thanks for the video...really enjoyed it!
Not a bad kit 👍🏻
Very well done
So cool
Very nice man……A plus all the way
your box is not good for boiling water because sh es not welded !it is crimped on the side and the bottom the water will relax the steel while heating and the container will leak
You are correct. I am in the process of finding a can to replace it that has metal lid like this one. In the meantime, I’ve added a fair amount of aluminum foil that I can line the inside of the can with and use it for boiling. I was wondering how long before someone would catch this detail. I myself didn’t think of it until after I had made the video. Thanks for watching. 👍
I would swap out the picture fram wire for some mechanics wire, picture frame wire are hell to try and make a snare out of. If you have a harbor freight anywhere near you the have small rolls of mechanics wire for .99 cents.
I’ve always used the frame wire and actually prefer it.
@@NEP_Chris sir? Maybe that is what he would do. I would try your idea on the snare wire
Only slight problem I can see, I put picture wire in my kit too. Unless you have a leatherman or similar it’s nearly impossible to cut down and bending it till it fatigues doesn’t really work
I usually carry a good multitool but if I were to build this kit again, I’d just substitute bank line for the wire.
This was actually gonna be the one flaw I planned to point out. I always have a multitool on my belt. But substituting the wire for bank line is an excellent idea.
Nice kit! Step 2: solo overnight in the woods...
Thanks. And I will make a video using the kit as soon as I get a chance. Lots going on right now!
I was Truly Impressed, Just Add More Bullion
No disrespect to the ranger channel I think your tin is much more usable…multiple use items 👍🇬🇧
I appreciate the compliment but his was better than mine for one HUGE reason. When I chose the tin, I never considered the fact that it had a seam. So, if I try to use it to boil water, it will definitely fail. His can was much better for that purpose. I can have all the redundant tools in the world but, if I can’t boil water for drinking, I’m screwed lol. I think he put together a solid kit. I just found a way to include a bit more.
I've not seen that specific ferro rod. Would that fit in an Altoids tin?
Unfortunately it’s just a bit too long for an altoids run unless you separate it into its 2 halves. Thank for watching.
Just how many survial kits do you have around your place at any given time?
Only a couple really. I strip them down a lot to build or upgrade others. Mainly just have my main bag, a car kit and maybe 2 others sitting around here and there.
Well thought out you got a new subscriber bro northeast Boys gotta stick together
Thanks! Glad you liked it!
Never underestimate the usefulness of electrical tape.
to me you fail the food par! beef jerky or a cliff bar would have been way better
Had to go with what would fit. I like broth. It’s nice to have a hot liquid especially on a cold and miserable night. I’m good at improvised fishing and trapping so I’d be covered pretty well. But yes, bee jerky is always a good option 👍
Pov: your parents kicked you out of the house
Add some anti diarrhea pills
