Best survival kit video till now. Advice to add: 100$ cash!!!, windproof lighter, magnesium shot for muscular cramps. My experience into the wild learned me to always carry a simple lightweight plastic poncho. When all the expensive gore-tex equipment will fail, a simple plastic poncho will do the job. l also carry garbage plastic bag.

[@harlangraham7302]

Finally someone who had the sense to include two mylar blankets!

[@kan-zee]

11:54 ...I would prefer bank line #36 over 550 Paracord. Why ?? 1) Bank line is water proof and rot proof . P-cord absorbs water, and gets weaker in time. 2) Bank line doesn't stretch . P-cord does 3) Bank line holds knots better and longer, cause of the Tarr in it . P-cord will slip with alot of knots. 4) weak spots on P-cord are found where knots are tied. Bankline will not have weak spots P-cord will weaken in abrasion spots. B-line will not 5) 550 P-cord has less than 550 breaking point, when it is working. The breaking strength lessens by 40% making P-cord 300 breaking point. B-line has a 320 breaking point and will hold its breaking point longer. 6) 550 P-cord is made of a 200lb sheath and 7x 50lbs inner strands. #36 B-line is twisted from 3 strands with each one is 107 lb strength. 7) #36B-line, which is 2mm thick, making it good real estate in your cordage kits, and lighter weight than paracord's 4mm thickness. You can carry more B-Line cordage for weight without sacrificing much strength or capability. 9) Paracord is better for visibility , unless your setting snares or trip lines, and nets..then B-line is better. 10) length of 1/4 lb of Paracord is 56 feet (17 m) Length of 1/4 lb of Bankline is 138 feet (42 m)

[@behindthespotlight7983]

Cross loading is what it’s all about. Which is somewhat ironic for me to say given that I build survival kits. Today I browsed through a local outdoor store here in the Pacific Northwest. Looking primarily at 3 season jackets. Almost without fail they all offered minimum 6 pockets. Any one of which held more volume than most of the Altoids type kits that are so popular. In fact as the original cigarette pack size survival tin was introduced by British SAS to compliment a larger belt kit, I’ll use them as an example. The 10c’s can be nicely organized & packed into 3-4 repurposed steel Bandaids boxes, tobacco tins, Vietnam era infantryman’s blow out belt kit or even small Tupperware. Instead of putting these, along with other essentials into some type of auxiliary bag (butt pack, haversack, waist bag) that doesn’t interfere with one’s primary ruck, why not simply utilize pockets? If a sojourner wears cargo pants and chooses a jacket with several pockets, those pockets combined hold more than most bags that can be worn in tandem with a ruck. The idea, of course, being maintaining critical capabilities even if a primary pack is stolen, swept down river or tumbles into an inaccessible ravine. Another hack that’s a bit ersatz but works nonetheless is making a few fly by night pouches from duct tape then placing them cross loaded across ones available pockets. The only warning when it comes to eschewing a single bag is that pockets must be securely fastened. YYK zippers are my preference. Velcro is substantially tougher than it was 20 years ago but it still has that one weak spot: detritus in the loop side. Lastly buttoned down cargo pockets are usually safe but if there’s any doubt whatsoever ask yourself “will this open if I take an unplanned header into a creek?” Use the largest safety pin available (before getting into blanket pins size) By adding that additional safety closure to cargo pockets, along with buttons, the very worst that happens is having a few extra of the ultimate MacGyver tools when/if a survival situation occurs. Read a piece the other day about when search and rescue come on-scene of a lost hiker they use something out of the victims car. Typically the trunk. Shoes, T shirts and gym clothes are their go-to’s to get the dogs on-scent. And know what they find when they open said trunks? The survival kit that the victim spent the time and money to develop only to leave behind last minute. Just one of dozens of reasons why cross loading into pockets is almost always a great option. PS: Amazon sells 3 packs of steel Altoids style boxes that are 1 inch larger all around. So still 3.5x4.25 (small) but offering considerably more volume than actual breath mint cans. They average out to $2.25 apiece. Well worth it as they hold larger ferro rods, full size folder knives & Leatherman and even Sawyer mini’s. When you watch survival tutorials remember it’s what you are wearing & carrying that counts. Got room in a few jacket pockets and cargo pants pockets? Add another 10 bullion cubes. Add another 20 butterscotch candies. Add 3 more king size Snickers. I’m dead serious. Yes, cross load all your survival goodies throughout the 15 pockets of wilderness trousers & jacket/vest/parka. But remember your digestive engine is a massive heater that burns at 98 and a half degrees F. Let’s say you have 6 trouser pockets and 5 jacket pockets. 11 pockets total. Now add a snack to each pocket. Into 3 you add a king size Snickers. Into 2 you add 16oz bags of jerky. Into 4 you add a Cliff Bar and 10 caramels per pocket. And into 2 you add peanut butter Power Bars. Whoops. You’re stranded for 6 days. By just adding a small snack, 1 to each pocket you’re carrying 5,838 calories. Yes I just did the exact math. That’s 973 calories per day just from making a prudent stop at the Dollar Store and actually using each pocket you’re wearing. If you included a few caffeine tablets in your survival kit you’ll practically dance to the rescue helicopter. Remember you have more capacity IN YOUR POCKETS than any survival fanny pack or butt pack sold on Amazon. You can carry everything you need to survive a week, no problem, on your person & without a bag that can get lost or stolen. The only exception is proper shelter. Nowadays there’s even tarps that roll small enough to carry in a large cargo pocket.

[@mannihh5274]

You are right, using jacket and pants pockets is an awesome way to carry survival gear, but your suggestions about food placed everywhere is ridiculous. In a 72-hour scenario it's completely overkill. Two bullion cubes and two 100g-packs of nuts and raisins (per day) are sufficient. As far as shelter goes, some jackets have a large pockt in the back that easily fits a tarp and a drop-cloth to make a "Super-Shelter".

[@swagmanandy]

I'd replace half the coffee and clif bars with boullion cubes, they're much better and have a genuine nutritional value in a real life 72 hour shtf type event or extended enforced outside stay. They're not a dieretic and replace valuable salts and minerals which coffee removes, AND they also taste awesome which is nice.

[@dgunearthed7859]

U could also replace a couple coffee packs w those little drink mixes w electrolytes ie Gatorade makes some. Yum and needed electrolytes

[@sparky2057]

I have two rat traps in my larger survival kit. Painted them brown and put a 6 Ft. lanyard on them. Caught several squirrels and a small hare in them. a very effective trap system (with some peanut butter or soft cheese!).

[@ericpacurari6779]

Your bot can be filled with supplies too 👍

[@ulperformance4087]

Things to consider: chemical heaters when obtaining wood and starting a fire is impractical - your saw and axe can relax. Optionally, a few rocks below your mug/pot with Esbit heat tabs to heat water/food. A heat reflective tarp for shelter - a polyethylene bivy and survival blankets don't cut it as shelter - try sleeping with rain and wind pelting them with you under. A knife/axe sharpener. A PLB is fine for night but useless in day. I carry 2 red/orange smoke flares - prepping a fire when aircraft are in the area takes too long to get started generating smoke and basically useless in rain and high wind. You need to act quickly. A signal mirror is good for fair skies assuming directionality to help exists. Spare shirt and socks if you are wet and a breathable, waterproof and wind resistant anorak or jacket. There are better choices than Cliff bars for food energy. I didn't notice a flashlight. I carry a 650 lumen one as well as a headlamp. What do you keep inside your mug/pot - useful for storing a folding spork, cleaning cloth, scrubber, Esbit or equal heat tabs, snare wire or fishing leader? And what about a small fish kit? What about a foldable or roll type water container vs rubbers - they may have pin holes. What about triple antibiotic and a tube of super glue for sealing wounds? The heat reflective tarp is probably the highest volume item. You could carry a painter's poly tarp cut to 9' x 9' giving you good coverage for a number of weather conditions although not the most durable unless locating yourself in a protected spot from high wind and cold wind. I prefer setting camp below a spruce or pine tree, normally dry on the needles, shielded from the weather.

[@lookoutpath6520]

Nice kit 👍, except for the condoms as water containers... these are very fragile fail-prone, just bad, containers. I switched to "Whirl Pack" bags years ago; lightweight, sturdy, multi-use. Even a zip lock bag is better than the condoms (unless they're actually for their intended use). 👍☘️👍

[@theprophetez1838]

When filling the condoms it is best to carry them in a sock so that the water weight/pressure don't bust it, and it wont get poked.

[@cardiacbob]

Toss the condoms and put in a 1L Whirlpack water bag or 2. I tossed the condoms out of my 1990's kits a few years back. Otherwise, a solid PSK. I carry a Khukri instead of a pack axe, a custom camp/hunting knife with a scandi grind and a 3/8-inch spine, and a Wicked Tree Gear folding saw vice a Gomboy saw... but to each his own! The important thing is that it works for you, and you don't die! P.S. - Toilet paper!

[@godofthunder808]

You have the "clown car" of survival kits because I was pleasantly surprised at what you kept on pulling out. I made a smaller survival kit using the pouch of a military first aid kit about 50 years ago. The contents can still be used today but after seeing your video I'm going to slightly expand on it by adding a few of your ideas along with some of mine. Excellent presentation. Happy Trails!

[@AlaskanFrontier1]

Thank you kindly!

[@waynesbsf9532]

As an Alaskan as well. I cant have too many ways to start a fire here in south central . Large hand warmers for fast long lasting heat saved the day many times

[@runyourrace2finish910]

Also a long time Alaskan here. I’ve never watched this guy before. A little skeptical so far. Bear loads didn’t look like hard cast bear loads! Where was his speed loaders??? I would go for a Ruger Redhawk! S&W wheel guns usually can’t handle big bear loads. They don’t have enough spacing between between the wheel and the Barrel to facilitate the length of a large super bear load.

[@Horde334]

@@runyourrace2finish910 KZbin is jumpy about anything related to the terrifying topic of "firearms" even history firearms history channels cant be monetized now cause it talks about those big ol scary guns and KZbin just cant have that plus it flags your video and takes it out of the algorithm so even subscribers won't get notifications cause of it and the video wont circulate out either. Welcome to the hell scape that KZbin created cause they're scared of anyone learning or becoming self sufficient or saying "mean things".

[@matthewbrown6163]

Great little kit. It does not take too much room but a shopping bag (free) folded up comes in handy & I was given a carton of Keyrings with a foldable shopping bag - cheap I know but can be used so many ways including carrying stuff.

[@gorillahd9247]

Good overall kit. You might consider a sandwich sized ziplock bag for the tinder in your kit. No extra space taken up and if you get hit with heavy rain or fall in a creek your ability to combat hypothermia won't be compromised by the water.

[@Northanteus]

I would include a quick clot item. Do you have a multitool? Leatherman, Victorinox? Maybe throw in a mini flashlight just for backup? Also, if I were lost in Alaska, I'd probably want a strobe light on me for any aircraft to see overhead. I've not looked into one myself but if I lived in Alaska, I'd get one. I'd also carry a big bottle or two of bear spray, as backup. I'd carve a spear out of a stick to use for a walking stick and defense tool for any animal charging. I remember watching a video of a Swede hiking in mountains and he saw a bear coming toward him from afar. No guns over there, so i thought if only he carried pepper spray or at least carved a spear or two. Thankfully the bear eventually ran away but that doesn't always happen. Just saw a video of a guy using fiberglass wicks that're soaked in a little bit of parrafin oil (kept in airtight tube) for good fire starting option. Think it was on WayPoint Survival channel on KZbin. Title of video is *Re-Usable Fire Starter* Just some suggestions for anyone to consider.

[@adamgrimes820]

I also carry a titanium cup for boiling and cooking but my favorite water setup is the sawyer mini/smart water bottle combo. 2 smart water bottles 1 for dirty and 1 for clean water. Threads fit perfectly with the sawyer

[@davidneal6920]

Very good kit. I have actually modified my survival kit based on your advice. Thanks Dave 🇺🇸 🇳🇿

[@randyyeager]

a one piece cook kit doesn't make sense to me. If you boil water yer stuck until you use it up. If you cook food in it, you don't have water. A bottle with a nesting cup may weigh more, but it's so much more useful, it's worth the bit of weight.

[@randyyeager]

I carry a 1 L bottle with 2 nesting cups. 500 ml cup on top, and a 750 ml cup on the bottom. So I can boil water in the bottle and the 500 ml cup, and cook food in the 700 ml cup/pot at the same time. It's a big time saver when you can do it all at once.

[@lcm7541]

Awesome kit, two suggestions that may help you is switching to two Whirlpack water bags and having some sort of a small back up flashlight. The water bags hold up better and don’t take up too much space!

[@joegrande4848]

Probably why he carries a quality Smith & Wesson revolver to hunt for smaller game and for protection. Also, the knife to build traps and shelters and to help cut wood to smaller pieces for kindling. Yes important to have nourishment bars. If you are aware of how to locate animals from freshly broken brush animal tracks, you'll find food.

[@johnmuricasmith8641]

You got some really good stuff. I'd add a tourniquet, I'd change the battery charger to solar charge option, and maybe add a bit more Para chord. Maybe 100 feet or more. Doesn't take up much room.

[@mickeycrawford121]

that is a lot stuff in a small bag. i think it's a pretty good kit. but.... your shelter imo could use some help. i'd keep the blanket rolled up in the shemagh, and add a military style poncho. i assume you wear the bag on your belt, so you could tie the poncho under the bag or hang it from your belt. maybe 10-20 feet of paracord or bankline. i like Lara bars better than cliff bars or maybe a combo of both would be ok. also i'd have a headlamp and extra batteries. just my thoughts.

[@flipflat4814]

Pretty much same kit I have except I have 50 ft of paracord total, quikclot, extra-long cable ties, Pemmican, salt and pepper packets, water filter & water bag, 2 glow sticks toe and hand warmers, Super glue and opiates.

Great advice on the Holy Trinity. A small hatchet, small knife and small saw, has everything covered. "Internet doctrine" these days is "spend $700 on a knife and then beat it to death doing every task" but this is for fools. People in Finland didnt spend the last thousand years beating their knives to death splitting logs if they could take a hatchet. I recently took a small, crappy, collapsible saw on a bushcraft trip and it was amazing. I could suddenly craft other tools like mallets so much more easily. Shame I live in the UK though ..... I cant take a cool revolver like you

Hi nice psk I would replace the condoms in the kit for some dedicated water bags would add some duct tape useful for alot of things fire tinder, first aid and repair to name a few could add a couple of hand warmers alway have a couple in my pockets when camping in the cold great for a little added warmth but also to keep electronics warm in exstreme cold to stop the batteries from draining do you carry the kit with the cooking pot full of water if not could put all the psk into a ziplock bag into the cook pot and the emergency becon into a secure pocket away from the cold if there is any room left could squeeze a couple of packet soups in great moral boost in the cold.

[@jtr109]

I’d ditch the hatchet and carry a bigger knife. The hatchet isn’t big enough to do real axe work anyway. And survival isn’t camping. Once you have a fire going, you can drag bigger logs to the fire with minimal cutting. Maybe add a folding shovel or a cold steel shovel. While that silky is a great saw, that large tooth pattern might be a bit too aggressive for smaller diameter sticks. And the concave curvature of the teeth cuts faster, but isn’t as conducive to finer tasks. Maybe add an SAK with a saw for that fine work.

@@AlaskanFrontier1 at the part of the video when you uncover the blade of the hatch you can see rolling on the edge. And to redress the blade is to remove the rolling by a rod of steel like in a butcher block but the don’t sharpen the blade it redress the edge or a sharpening stone that removes metal to sharpen the blade. Now if you don’t want to do that the blades performance will degrade faster over time. And the rolling can also cause chipping of the edge. Now I would use a butcher steel and forgo the stone to keep any blade as long as I can and only remove steel if I really need to. And if you want use a leather strap and you can get a axe sharp enough to shave with I see men do that.

Too many people want to rely on these small kits. Double or triple the size and yer set. Seems like people want to make survival harder than it needs to be...

[@randyyeager]

Like, why not have an actual tarp. I have a 300 cm x 320 cm tarp. It's reflective on the inside, or you can flip it in the summer and reflect the heat away. Easy to set up in multiple configurations. It's maybe 1/2 lb, and is no bigger than that kit you have. It'll fit in a cargo pants pocket.

[@randyyeager]

A mylar blanket isn't sturdy or reliable for shelter. It's easily ripped, even when trying to be careful with it. Easily ripped in the wind. Good for a reflective surface in a tarp to aim the heat at you but as your only cover, yer putting yourself at risk for hypothermia. Mylar works great if you have a heat source, but if you can't get a fire going and yer already cold, yer going to freeze as you need heat to make them work.

All I can say is your tools are okay. You need a few more. Like an auger bit. But you do you. Most of the rest of that stuff is just junk got a haul around. I said most of it. I don't mean all of it.

[@AlaskanFrontier1]

Nope. Just nope.

Don’t really understand why your tinder quick fire plugs are loose inside your kit? Get those things inside something waterproof man😂
