This is my version of an altoids mint tin survival kit.this kit includes: 7 ranger bands 2 ft of duct tape 85ft of dental floss Knife Flint n striker Lot of matches ...
A great EDC kit for anyone-especially the outdoor type. It has everything required to sustrain you away from home- in other words, the smallest wilderness ...
actually chapstick can be used to make a fire ....a pencil sharpener blade
is impractical too small. use a small pocket knife blade from a broken
knife or a bit of a hack saw blade works great..for about 7 bucks on ebay u
can get a wager credit card tool that has a surprisingly good blade and has
a half way decent flathead screwdriver/bottle opener and a nice little pair
of tweesers . plus it has the added feature of a mirror that would be great
for signaling.
@MrMiniseb Good idea. I just managed to get hold of these sharpener blades
for virtually nothing ( I bought the sharpeners on a sell out at a junk
store for 50 cents ( about 30p) a piece). Thanks for the comment and I hope
to post another, updated version of this later- including your idea. It
will be titled: Mini Survival Kit- In Wallet V1.5. Look out for it in the
future. Please subscribe if you like my videos! Take care!
@AI4QT The idea is that they are a useful tinder source. The Vaseline on
them can help them burn longer and hotter. Some people have reported them
burning for 3 minutes and they are sealed in the bag to prevent drying.
Just in case your wondering, I actually have used them myself and I highly
recommend them!
Sorry about the time it took to open- I only had 1 hand and the velcro was
tight! I also appokihise for having no sound- I only have a digital camera
with no Mic.
A different way of flossing that is more convenient, wastes less floss, and doesn't require the twisting of floss around your fingers. Always consult your dentist ...
More of a minimalist redundancy but usefull none the less. Ot contains: handmade carbon steel blade, handmade micro prybar/screwdriver, micro LED torch ...
How to attach a lanyard
This is how we get a lanyard through the lanyard hole on a knife. Use some thin but strong thread or string, even dental floss will work! Push the thread through ...

Hier nochmal die etwas bessere Auflösung von meinem EDC Survival Kit Video.Bitte denkt daran das die verwendeten sachen maximal für 1 - 2 Tage gedacht ...

hallo nochmal, ich habe in youtube gesehen daß du dir das Tahoma field knive von Tops zugelegt hast. Wo hast du es gekauft? Auf der Tops-Seite gibt es das Messer eigentlich noch gar nicht zu kaufen. Mir gefällt die Review zu diesem MEsser sehr gut bzw auch die Vids von dem der das Messer entworfen hat.......bisher konnte ich aber keinen Händler in D finden der es anbietet.Viele GrüßeNorbert
Vielen dank Norbert werde bald noch die nächste Generation vorstellen. Es bleibt halt alles in bewegung :-) ich hoffe du hattest einen guten Rutsch ins neue jahr , alles gute fürs selbige wünscht der Michael
For a primary survival knife I would recommend the BK 2 companion. It's
about $70. It's made from high carbon steel, an excellent steel choice if
you're looking for a knife to hold an edge. The blade is even thicker in
width than some crow bars. It comes reasonably sharp with a kydex (hard
plastic) sheath. One of the biggest down sides to this is that carbon steel
is more vonarable to rust than the stainless steel blades. In all, it's an
excellent knife as long as you keep it dry.
wow people are all over the place with their knives. I am going to stick
with neck knives. The becker is a nice knife, cheap effective. But Im a
bigger fan of the ESEE Izula. in a survival situation your probably dealing
with wood. if your dealing with wood, stainless steel is brittle and
breaks. carbon steel is a better option. also handle length on that thing
is too short to do much. becker and izula better options, new izulat 2 has
best handle length I have seen Yet.
Good find, and good video. Small back-up knives are great in the wilderness
as well as in an urban environment. One I really like is the RAT/ESEE
Izula. It has a small compact size, is light weight but still comfortable
even when using it skeletonized as it comes...even more comfortable with a
cord wrapped handle. It has a pretty stout blade at 5/32 of an inch
thickness. You should give one a try if you get the chance, I love mine.
Have you tried the Buck "Paklite" yet?
I'm surprised they didn't design that knife so that you could flip the
knife around and use the sheath as a handle. Oh well. Anyway I always carry
a leatherman wave with me wherever I go. I'm a mechanic by trade and there
are often times when I just pull the leatherman out and use that rather
than walking to my toolbox to get a pair of pliers, screwdriver or razor
blade knife. I even use it to open cans. It's major handy and I always have
it with me, Always!
The Gerber LST is what goes in my pocket when I dress in the morning.
Sharpens easy and hold a edge really well. That said, when I am traveling
the backcountry I won't go without my Ka-bar. I know it is a chunk of steel
and those who look critically at every ounce would say no way, but it has
been a trusted friend not only when in harms way but when rambling the
backwoods seeking sanctuary. Indestructable and Always Faithful.
Interesting product. Might google it to see if it is expensive. Based on a
previous PeakSurvival video, I bought the Mora 911 in carbon steel. I also
like the mora 510. Overall, I am a fan of Frosts/Mora knives for camping
and survival purposes. They are inexpensive, light, durable, hold an edge
well, and easy to sharpen in the field. I have a decent hatchet but could
baton with a Mora if I had to.
I love my Smidgen but found the sheath a bit inadeqate. After a short time,
the spring lock fatigued and wouldn't keep the knife in the sheath very
well. I made an even smaller sheath from Kydex and it holds great. Since
the sheath on longer extended to the full length of the handle, I was able
to epoxy wood to the back of the handle improving the grip greatly. When I
can, I'll send you a pic.
The Izula neck knife is IMHO one of the best knives for EDC especially when
hiking or doing any outdoor activities (except maybe ball sports, etc...).
The only drawback I have found is that the coating prevents it from being
used as a striker for a ferro rod. This can be fixed with a file if you
want to do that, but I haven't done that to mine. I have other EDC tools
for that purpose.
If I was lost in the woods, those two items ( knife and fire starter) would
be the bare minimum you should have. I like the idea you can make a spear
with that blade, noticed it has 2 holes in the handle, in a pinch I imaging
you could carve into the pole your using a couple peg holes with the same
diameter as those in the handle, which should add more strength.
i have seen this video lik 10 times and i dont get bore, i think this is a
great back up knife, i just to order it, usually, when i go camping i take
a 4-6" blade knife and a pocket knife, but this is a good choice to carry
with, i wanna know about the edge and if it keeps sharped, is it good?, by
the way, i lov this girl
Good job on mating the two items but my only suggestion to you is maybe go
for something in high carbon so you could strike your fire steel with
it.Never heard of that type of stainless,I dont presume it works with the
firesteel.Oh and by the way did the sweedish pimple thing work out for you?
Good work your friend Roger.
Great little backup knife. I carry a Benchmade Snoody folder. $200.00 Great
everyday knife with acess lock system. ( the blade will break before the
lock gives. 500lbs of force). The cheap metal on Chineese knifes will not
hold an edge. Spend the extra cash for quality and save yourself some cuts
later. Best of luck*****
my favorite knife is the s&w special tactical its a great liner lock w/
rubberized handles and its only 10$ but the border guard is very nice too
theyre both one hand openers and the border guard has a reversible pocket
clip for right or left handed pocket carry but idk the price for the border
guard i got it as a gift
For me I prefer a knife that has a lot higher carbon content then stainless
steel. Sure on the down side if you get it wet it oxidises(rusts) quicker,
but on the positive side it can hold an edge that is razor sharp. Plus if
tempered correctly you can use the back edge to create sparks with a piece
of flint.
Loved your knife review, I just ordered the crkt ritter rsk mk5, It's a
tiny knife along the same lines as yours with supposedly a truly well
designed kydex sheath. Your knife also comes in a hartshook version in s30v
steel, Pricey but as you know, Nice things are. Take Care!! Mark. U.K
I'm really trying to figure you and your channel out. You obviously are
doing this as your job, and you have no real interest in the things you
review. So, are you doing this only to make money, or are you doing it as a
spring board to hopefully some bigger journalistic opportunity?
A good compact survival knife is the Dajo Survivor. It comes razor sharp
out of the box, and the sheath includes a Mini Firesteel and signal
whistle. Best of all, it's only 40 dollars for the whole set. You should
check it out, I own one myself.
If you want a cheap backup pocket or neckknife then look at the Opinel 8
carbon steel blade. Its as cheap as it gets but still great quality. I've
drilled a lanyardhole in the handle of mine and paired it up to a LMF scout
firesteel
My EDC knife is the SOG Flash 1. It's a small, lightweight knife and hold
and edge pretty good (I use it at work to cut open boxes since the thumb
studs on my CRKT M-16 came off). My SOG cost $65 at Bass Pro Shop. I love
this knife.
I carry a swiss army knife huntsman on my keys around £20. I have an opinel
10 around my neck £10 and a brussletto bamsen for my main blade £50. Don't
like to leave home without at least one blade on me :-)
@32937isready I used to wear a neck knife everyday and I used that little
thing all the time to do odds and ends. The one time you don't have any
knife on you at all is probly when you'll need one the most lol
Right off the bat you say you wouldn't recommend this as a "primary" knife
- why? Just curious to know what your reasoning is and what you think a
primary knife should be? BTW - big fan of the videos :-)
Victorinox Farmer Knife
Quick look at my favorite Swiss army knife. The Farmer by Victorinox. Great pocket knife! Please check out Ozark Survivals channel and give him a sub.
Wow! Everyone should have one! The plastic handle ones can be had for 20$ and less! This one is about 30-40 but worth every penny! Good quality steel like the mora
