Quick late question. Why do you have big bottles for some medicine while others are in smaller containers?
@thehardcorenaturalist
@thehardcorenaturalist Күн бұрын
It mostly depends of the amount of pills I use. I use a lot more ibuprofen than Benadryl for example, so I use the bigger bottle for the IB. Believe it or not that box is packed pretty tight, so the extra space helps! Thanks for the question!

Great video! Out of all my blades, I would grab this one in an apocalypse situation. I have beaten on mine so badly the 6 years I own it and never let's me down and i fully trust it. I use the chest leaver grip 90% of the time also but do not have any issues with it, might be because I have huge hands at 6 foot 8. Do you regret your modification? Or still happy with it?

One important thing to note, an Israeli Bandage original intention is NOT as a tourniquet. In fact its stated purpose is for significant bleeding injuries that do NOT require a tourniquet. You can use a stick or something as a windlass and get decent pressure but it won't stop a true arterial wound like a tourniquet would. You should include a true tourniquet in any wilderness first aid pack. Especially with how little space a decent CAT Tourniquet takes up. Source- 15 Years of EMS and hundreds of Israeli Bandages applied in the field.

Great kit and video is a service to viewers. May I add some comments ? I think you need a minimum of 10 4”x 4” sterile pads per injury, big enough to require their use. A couple for cleaning up or out the wound and 2-3 to cover the wound and the other 4-5 to change the dressing, once or twice on a multi-day hike. Add 2-3 iodine pad packets to put into the water u will use with the irrigation syringe. That’s a good field expedient wound debrisment / wash. Ditch the super glue. Strong potential to seal-in debris and cause infection. Instead of superglue and butterfly’s, use 1/4” Steri-Strips in a 10 pack. The Izzy bandage, in 6” , is a great idea, especially if u got the model with 2 pads. The Israeli army protocol does allow for its use as an tourniquet ,if you don’t have a real one. Opinions vary. Best to spring for a real CAT tourniquet. Beware cheap imitations. As to drugs. My aspirin recommendation is 16, chewable children’s aspirin. 8 should be rough equivalent of the amount needed to minimize a heart attack. Add pseudoephedrine tablets and caffine tablets. I and others use them together as an emergency 8:05 energy boost, assuming ur BP/ heart condition allows. I found that particular advice in Cody Lundin’s book, “ 98.6 degrees….”. CHECK FIRST WITH UR OWN Dr. ON THESE 2 ISSUES. Carry a 2-3 day supply of any prescription meds u take each day. U should note the newly preached OTC pain-kill combo of 400mg. Of ibuprofen + 1000mg. Tylenol, now used i military pill kits. AGAIN, FIRST CHECK WITH UR DOCTOR. Finally, before a trip, I ask my Doctor to prescribe a really powerful wide spectrum antibiotic tablet. Finally, if u don’t carry a strong multi-tool , equipped with hardwire cutters, I’d add a small side, hard wire cutter to cut fish hook shanks , usually imbedded in a finger.

Ha that simply isn't true! By power cuts I assume you mean strong downward cuts with a forehand grip, in that case it's the belly of the grip that fits in your fingers that provides the stability, not the butt end. In this case, the butt end of my grip wasn't even in my hand, so it didn't provide any additional stability and was just in the way!

Having a comprehensive medical kit could save your life. I tend to go overboard with my medical kit. I carry a Trama Kit made especially for severe lacerations, puncture wounds,gun shots, or any other type of severe injury that requires immediate treatment to stop the flow of blood. I won't go into detail about my medical bag that is for common boo boo's and burns, but this is what I carry in my Trama Kit. X2 Isreal Bandages X2 Ratcheting Tourniquet X2 Bleedstop X2 Chest Seal X2 Venelated Chest Seal X2 Sterile Surgical Suiture X2 Wound Packing Gauze X1 Emergency Splint X1 Triangler Bandage X1 Tape X2 Mylar Blankets X10 Tylenol X1 Sterile Surgical Blades X1 Headlamp X2 Penlight X1 Knife X1 Medical Sizzers X1 Medical Hemostats X1 Mirror X1 Magnifying Glass X5 Antiseptic Wipes X2 Super Glue All this fits into a mollie bag that can be attached to any backpack. Again, this is strictly for control of blood and stopping blood flow . This might seem like it's overkill, but in reality, you never know what is going to happen, and it's always better to have a not need rather than need and not have . This Trama Kit wasn't expensive to make rather than trying to buy one already made with things that you will probably never need
