   Just found you. Terrific vids!! But you need to code them, so the new viewer, like me, can watch them in order or the sequence they were made. Keep up the good work!!

   Flash light for the …
   Flash light for the nite to minimise fright, right? I´d trade it for the magnesium flint fire starter, or at least i´d carry it on me instead of the flashlight. It can go in the backpack, as you said the items you use most should go in your pocket .And that little knife, although it´s sharp, wont be able to do no spliting. How about a kabar marine knife or even a pilot survival one or a S.O.G., any thing that can do splitting and batoning? Any way I like your vds. Keep up with the good job.

   why are you so defensive? im a fan of nutnfancy as well as fixed blade knives whats to be ashamed about that? Maybe you mistook the tone of the comment or something read it again- it wasnt meant in a negative tone whatsoever.

    what’s that …
    what’s that supposed to mean? i was just pointing out the advantages of a fixed blade in the wilderness. I’m not sayin take a Busse or a RTAK II in your survival kit.

    Minor criticism: a fixed blade knife, even a small one like a RAT 3, is a lot stronger and more capable at survival tasks (especially firewood processing).

    one thing for people to consider would be to check out a quality light hiking pack, like arcteryx, gregory, etc. since military gear that i have used (when i was in the military) was heavier and less comfortable. Military stuff is more durable, but if you don’t intend to crawl through barbwire and trenches it is sometimes a bit porcine. If people don’t believe me look at what organizations like NOLS use etc.

    One last thing…. …
    One last thing…. It’s more efficient to carry as much of your load on your hips if you can. Infantry style load bearing harness work great for this and are pretty comfortable. Most come with what are called butt backs that are large enough to hold whatever you need for basic survival. If you get lost or stranded, I’d ditch all my nonessential gear and the ruck sack and just go with my load bearing harness. Cammel backs are good but don’t rely on them. You don’t take in enough water with them.

    One thing that …
    One thing that almost nobody ever thinks of is salt. I’d advise you to carry a little box cannister of cheap morton sea salt. Salt has about 1001 differnt survival uses. Everything from treating wounds and preserving food, to preventing frost bite and dehydration. A pound of salt can save your life. I know it might sound silly, but I’m dead serious. Salt can replace a lot different items that otherwise might take up space. Only sea salt though. Iodized salt is useless.

    Pretty good kit. Just a tip though, I was a Marine Scout Sniper and a Marine Survival and Evasion instructor for 6 years(so you know I’m not just speaking out my ). In survival situations where you are isolated, injured or have to traverse distances greater than 10-15 miles, you don’t want to carry more than 5-8% of your body weight and that’s only if you’re in reasonably fit. Carrying 15% or more radically reduces your chances of survival. Calorie consumption becomes too high to sustain.
