Survival Kit... IN A BELT! - Wazoo

[@orenmontgomery8250]

6:49 That looks like an ideal place for a $50 or $100 bill. Something that I try to put in any survival kit I actually take out with me. Once you make it to civilization it is great to be able to buy a ride/gas, some food, dry clothes, offer thanks to a rescuer, etc.

[@gringo3009]

Cash is a must. I switched to carrying smaller bills even though thy take up a little more room. If shtf, you'll need exact change more than likely. It's hard enough to break a larger bill at some places even when things are good.

[@orenmontgomery8250]

@@gringo3009 good point. I actually tend to carry 2 or 3 $20s in my Altoids tin, but sometimes I worry it is not enough (if I want multiple things for example like food and a ride) and I worry it might be too bulky. Maybe more of a mix is better though and I imagine the buckle could hold about 5 bills. I'm usually thinking more in terms of getting home than a SHTF situation, but you're right, trying to get a place to take a large bill late at night is sometimes futile.

Your pocket kit should suit your environment. Calling a taxi from the middle of nowhere and having cash to pay for it could be a life saver :)

i have two of these belts, I wear the cobra buckle version everyday, instead of buying the items they sell, i used my own stuff that I had around the house, in my belt I carry a small swiss army knife with a firefly firesteel in it. I also have a small flashlight that is usb charge, I have a small fishing kit, hooks line sinkers swivels, and a mepps black fury size 2. I have kevlar cordage, a swirl pak water bag and water purification tabs, storm proof matches and striker, a small fire steel. a razor made of ceramic, a handcuff key right at the very center of the back so I could access it if I was unlawfully detained, i have some tinder quicks, some micro cord. recently I used clear heat shrink tube to hold each item, i melted the ends similar to what wazoo does with their premade kit. even with all the stuff in my belt I can wear it all day and not even notice, it is awesome to know I have these items with me, and they are not filling my pockets and getting lost. i highly recommend the wazoo cache belt.

[@lindastone6868]

Bottle opener in the buckle too!

[@rogerbond7811]

It's nice it looks like a normal belt. Have some thing similar I use when concerned about pick pockets etc. With enough cash for meal and a train ticket home

[@GrumpyGrunt]

I hadn't seen this one, but I like the pieces of their gear I already own. Thanks for the look, Andy! Stay well over there.

[@DennisdeMelker]

Old idea in a modern version, I like it. But 100USD for the entire kit is a bit steep. Should be around 60 or so. For example, the EagleCreek belt is only 15....

[@michaelmccoy7429]

I have the cache belt from wazoo. Very nice belt with a lot of room for stuff.

[@derekmcmanus8615]

Reminds me of the Bat Belt from the Adam West television show! 🦇🦇🦇

[@kentsurvivalgearreview586]

🤣 i wish it had the shark repellent spray lol

[@jim-bob-outdoors]

That's a cool idea. I would use my own items in it, but smart never the less. Regards Allan.

Jim-Bob’s Adventures & Kit. I would avoid putting a cleaver in there🤔😄

Hi Andy I use to have one similar it had zip that ran about a foot and a half. I liked it. I had to put my own kit in it and it work well for me.

[@jasonwithers2418]

I tried using one on a long term basis as a carry always survival kit. Found that the lumps and bumps wear through the outside of the belt.

[@tvishnuramsomuchettiar3411]

Good to see u andy

[@derekmcmanus8615]

Good to see you too!

[@tvishnuramsomuchettiar3411]

The mirror is made to fit behind the buckle bud 👍 arnt they comfy for what they carry

Thanks, Andy. 👍🙂

[@andrewforrest8938]

Awesome Survival kit belt I'll put my own Survival kit in great video Andy thank for sharing take care.

[@English.Andy1]

I’ve seen this but with a zip. I wore one like this in my travels around Europe, money passport details etc. Cheers Andy

[@kentsurvivalgearreview586]

ah yes, i've seen those too :) looking forward to taking it on trips now

Com se consegue abrir essa coisa dentro dos passadores das calças? Idéia de gerico.

Great idea I have a similar setup with my MSK 1 knife all inside the handle nice review Andy atvb jimmy 😎😎👍👍

[@roamingturtle21]

I enjoyed the review seems like a legit usable product. Just not gonna pay out the wazoo for this wazoo. Safe travels Andy.

[@andykjohnsonjohnson7622]

Nice video Andy 👍, Sorry to say . They are shite 😡, after a 3 month. Everything thing starts pocking thtow & just digs into you😐. The only thing I carry in mine now is, fishing line, paracord, micro fire lighting kit & some first add kit.

[@najmuddinf]

Perfect time to watch your video😊

[@kentsurvivalgearreview586]

:D

[@jamesellsworth9673]

I LOOK FORWARD to seeing you...and, maybe, Simon using this kit. This is definitely an item of last resort...based on the idea that you probably aren't going anywhere without your trousers that, hopefully, are no farther away than the back of the nearest chair. In the States, Zach Fowler likes some Wazoo products and he also takes Grimm card products out for freshwater fishing tests, cordage cutting, and the like. I would not want to refold any or all of these items to fit them back into the belt after use🙄😡🤬. I wonder if a beef jerky stick and energy bar would fit in while leaving room for some fire, water, and cordage elements?

[@douglashouston81]

Yeah very good, but why don't you get together with a British company,I'm sure you could come up with something just as good at half the price, Thanks again 😎

[@sparky0288]

Not surprising everything has to have a bottle opener...

[@derekmcmanus8615]

The problem with purchasing from the United States is the import tax to the United Kingdom

[@kentsurvivalgearreview586]

aye, i hear that. I do also have a lot of Americans / Canadians that watch too, hopefully informative for those too :)

[@derekmcmanus8615]

@@kentsurvivalgearreview586 I noticed on the official website that they where sold out so must be very popular...I was impressed at how normal the belt looked

[@steveday4797]

That's if it turns up. I've had several things I've ordered from the states over the past year go "missing"

[@fredfleming261]

[@punkhiker389]

A fair price for the belt but $80 for the survival kit , far to much and add in postage .

[@lucasbeiroasanchez3758]

I see this and I think in batman.xd

[@hendrikarqitekt6286]

Andy, i really do not see that you could survive with this mini gear. Made for leprechaun in my opinion.

[@kentsurvivalgearreview586]

haha, I can see it for emergency situations... in sweden i was fatigued, cold and wet on the final day and just getting a fire going was tough.. luckily simon had a small kit with similar items that was a god send. Something is better than nothing when youre desperate i guess and having it on your person is great.. Im not saying itll get your through being lost for a week or more though haha

[@hendrikarqitekt6286]

@@kentsurvivalgearreview586 ok, thx Andy, i know you where out the last day, didn’t know it was then useful. I got to alter my opinion on that.

[@andyrr30]

@@kentsurvivalgearreview586 I can see this being great as a reserve kit, as you say canoeing wise if you lost your kit due to a roll this could make the difference, only difference is with my waist size I could prob keep most my kit in it 😂😂👍🤔

[@ptouchpaul]

Thanks Andy. Can you arrange a deal with Simon to sell the axe/saw pouch he makes please ?. I keep mailing Simon and get no reply, appreciate he has 1,000's of messages but this could be a good business venture. Thanks...Paul

[@GavTatu]

hmm... i think batmans was better.

[@leecox8285]

Really don’t see the point in that belt waste of money in my own personal opinion . No offence but I personally think you read to much into the edc and shit hits the fan America prepare videos as a lot of stuffs thay show is very illegal to carry in the uk

[@kentsurvivalgearreview586]

Hey lee. Im not endorsing this as EDC but as a survival kit.. of course this doesnt apply to most people but those that put themselves in situations that have the potential to bad. The problem with most survival kits is that you have to remember and carry them.. this avoids that potential situation of forgetting it or not wanting to carry it as you think you probably wont need it. :)

[@smokinrider]

Very expensive and vey gimmicky. As you know you can buy a baccy tin with all that stuff in for about £20 And to be honest it is unlikely you’ll ever use this stuff or be in a situation where the normal stuff you carry (which may well be identical to what’s in the kit) will not be readily to hand. I guess if you’ve got £100 to burn you’d buy it but not for your average joe. BTW if you had to spend your own money on it, would you buy it, or would you make your own kit with better contents for a fraction of the cost? That’s the real litmus test for it.

[@darillfow]

First I saw this and thinking wow finally something that might be affordable for most of us, unfortunately it's overpriced, another crooked dealer trying to make a huge profits off of something that really doesn't cost that much. Man don't we just love crooks these days?! I mean almost everywhere you look there is a shady dealer that wants to burn your wallet up. lol!
