I have just bought my second kit of this type. I like it better then most pocket survival kits near this price for one reason. This kit has a heatsheet survival blanket, with duct tape inside and covers most of what you need in one package. Add a Adventure Medical first aid kit and you are set. BUT!!! I expect the person carrying this to have at least one magnesium fire steel and a good pocket knife or multi-tool with them at all times. You can get a Victroinox Swiss champ plus at a good price if you shop around. Leatherman or Gerber cost a little more but are worth the price. How much is your life worth? What would you pay to live another few years? I bet more then the price of a Leatherman. You can get a Mora knife for under $20.00 dollars. You can pick up adjustable flame lighters at any store for a Dollar. If I like this kit so much why only 4 stars? I believe the company could add a few things to improve it and not raise the price much over a couple bucks. A Fresnel lens,folding utility knife, clear oven bag to carry water and some snare wire. But even as is this is one great kit and a very good deal for the price.

The rather funny name for this item aside, it is a serious kit for times when things get dicey.
It is very small, and supposedly waterproof, though I will have to take this on faith for now. I suggest a full first aid kit for true emergencies, but this one is small and light enough for the backpack or car glove box.
When used as a part of a more comprehensive survival kit, this little bag of tricks is well worth the money.

I am giving this kit ***** and you guys know that I am a tough grader for survival kits. But this one is great. First of all, it has a Heatsheet blanket instead of a cheapie.

It also have a LOUD whistle and a small but serious signal mirror for signaling. Assuimg you keep a little LED flashlight on your keyring, zipperpull, etc, then you're set for signaling.

For firemaking it has a small pack of waterproof matches and some Tinderquick, which I grade highly. I'd add a flint firestarter, but still, it's pretty good.

The kit also has a mini-roll of duct-tape for zillions of uses, even first aid. There's also a small button compass, not all that useful, but it doesn't take up any weight or space.

Finally it has a mini fishing kit, with 4 large safety pins included. Those can be very handy for lots of things. In reality, a fishing kit isn't going to be a huge help in most cases, but it can be relaxing to dip a line, so why not? An idea here might be to remove one of the safety pins and put a Exacto blade in there instead. Of course, if you do so, it will not pass TSA.

They assume (and I hope) that you are carrying a decent knife, and some sort of 1st aid kit. If you aren't, there is room in the bag to add a few Band-aids and a one use packet of Neosporin.

What I like most is the bag. Not only is it watertight and resealable, but it fits perfectly and comfortably in a deep pocket, and thus you will actually take this kit with you. No kit, no matter how complete- is any use if you don't have it there where the sitrep occurs.

I also think that this kit may be acceptable to the TSA (rules and interpretations vary), so it would make a good travel kit, too.
