- NEW! Best Tactical / Military Survival Kit Military Scout Pocket Survival Tin
The folks at Prepare-1 sent me the Best Glide ASE Military Scout Pocket Survival Tin to test out and review. I must say this kit packs a lot of useful items into a small compact easy to pack practical kit. In this video I open up the kit and lay out all the contents and I test a few items. As always I give my thoughts and a rating.
You can purchase the Military Scout Pocket Survival Tin by visiting Prepare-1. I've enclosed a link to their website.

Kit Spec's
The Military Scout Pocket Survival Tin, and its civilian version, the Adventurer Pocket Survival Tin, are some of the best quality, true, pocket survival kits on the market today. We studied numerous government approved and non government approved kits, discarded the unreliable or unnecessary items, added numerous high quality survival items and came up with the Military Scout Pocket Survival Tin. We believe these are simply the best "tin" kits available, and we have seen a lot of kits over the years.
If you are looking for a pocket survival kit that is cheaply made with the sole intent of maximizing profits for the manufacturer, like so many do, this is NOT it. That is simply not what we do. Our customers agree. The Military Scout Pocket Survival Tin is built to last in the most strenuous of situations, military service and combat.
The Military Scout Pocket Survival Kit includes numerous genuine U.S. Military Issue/Approved items, NATO Approved items and items made in the USA. You simply will not find as many quality components in any other "tin type" survival kit. We urge you to compare ours to theirs.
The Military Scout Pocket Survival Tin Kit comes sealed in a heavy duty laminate bag which prevents air, moisture and dirt from degrading the life of your survival kit. With this packaging, your Military Scout Pocket Survival Tin can be stored for years, ready for use at a moments notice.

That wire saw is a "BOW SAW" and is meant to be used just like a "bow and arrow" but without the arrow of course. Just needs a stick you can bend.
Excellent review! Considering its size, it contains all the necessary items for survival.
Seems like it has a bit of extra room for paper, first-aid or another zip lock bag.
One of the best kits I've seen for its size. Perhaps they could make a folding knife that would lock on to the bottom outside of the tin and sell it separate or with tin for extra.make sure it fits the dimensions of the tin though.
Good review John. Thanks for making note about the toggles on the saw, a lot of people don't think to use toggles. Looks like all the basics are covered in one little kit. They did a good job putting that together.
I thought so as well. This one is going in my backpack.
I think that you would need at least 3 tins. 1 for fire, 1 multi purpose, 1 1st aid kit. For survival an aid kit is important as untreated wounds will get infected.
Umm...no. A single tin can contain a fully kitted out PSK with all the items you need to keep yourself alive for a few days. Your IFAK stage 1 (minor injury kit) should be on your belt in a small case, such as what EMTs store extra gloves in. First aid items do not belong in your PSK tin, and carrying enough fire kit to warrant its own tin is just overkill. After all, the entire point is to have something you can keep on you, no matter what you're wearing or where you're heading. It doesn't matter if you're walking the dog, out on a day hike, lost in the Arctic or desert or if you're ballroom dancing. Your kit stays with you.
Damn they put a lot of stuff in that kit. Without cramming and jamming it all in there too. Thanks for the video Wingman!
I need to send you one.
I was like CLOSE THE KNIFE 😂
I really like this kit. 2 things. 1, I would put a couple of small cone shaped (or melita style) coffee filters to go w the h2o tabs and 2, if you find a curved branch and put a notch on either end thenn attach the saw to make a bow saw, you can fell a small tree. it works great like that. great vid ty.
Nice kit, you can also include a mini flashllight like a Streamlight nano or something like that, amazing video explanation thanks
Thanks for checking in.
nice. I love how it's so small you can just carry it in your pocket. love the tin which doubles as a mirror. great tactical kit.
Thanks for checking in Isaac.
cool kit, some neet item in there and lot of it. great review. As always one of the key to survival is Preparation. Carrying this kit could make a survival situation, an overnight camp. not fun but do-able. Thanks for sharing.
I agree as well. Thanks for stopping by.
I have a suggestion on using the wire saws. Cut a green stick, roughly thumb-thickness or slightly more, preferably with a short 'Y' on one end (or cut a small notch). Cut a amall notch on the other end. Bend the stick into a bow and put the saw rings in the 'Y' and/or into the notches. You now have a bow saw that should be somewhat easier to use.
I tried using a wire saw as you did, and it broke in half after a short time.
Nice little kit, was surprised the wiresaw works, lol. Atb, Marc
It's a solid kit Marc. I'm going to keep testing it all summer. I may do a follow up video in a few months.
Bingo! You have to go out and make sure you know how to use it. I've seen people with the type of survival kits that are sealed with foil over the top or in a plastic bag, great as you won't loose components but useless if you don't know how to use it. They're perfectly happy to just let them gather dust at the bottom of their kit as if it's some sort of insurance policy. People forget, these kits were designed originally for special forces, regular infantry and civilian kits were bigger. Are you feeling special forces confident without even looking at the contents?? I know I'm not!!
Thanks for the view and the comment.
Good looking kit, looks to have most of the bases covered. For me part of the fun is putting kits together myself based on my needs but nice to know you can get a pre made kit with quality items. Thanks for the overview and testing.
Your welcome brother.
Lots of stuff in that little kit ;)-
I have a backpack with me every day. That lil kit would be perfect.
I'm putting it in my backpack for sure.
Thats a tobbaco tin. You can get them in the UK for a pound.
You should Spread the saw (Wire) between a Curved stick for it to work Best.
Thanks for the 411. Take care.
Great vid! Thanks for actually testing someone these items out for us!
I don't think there's such a thing as a military survival kit,but looks high quality none the less
Things I'd throw out: the ranger band, because two should be secured around the outside of the tin; zip ties, because a pair of 6 inch zip ties won't do enough to warrant their inclusion; the razor knife, because it's not good for anything other than cleaning fish and small game and picking splinters (the large folding knife you should have in your pocket will do that and more); the plasters, because first aid items have no place in your PSK (they belong in the minor injuries IFAK on your belt); the majority of that sewing kit; the pencil; the water tabs; the string, because a double cobra weave bracelet can easily hold 18 feet of 550; and that flimsy excuse for a signal mirror.
What I'd add: a more substantial mirror; half a dozen more matches; the bobbin, needles and safety pins of the sewing kit; a few more bits of that tinderquik; a second wire for the saw handles; and a 1/4 x 3 inch vial of potassium permanganate (a few grains until the water turns a pale pink will kill any enteric bacteria or parasites). If you really think you need a note pad and pencil, secure a small stormsaf note pad and a longer pencil to the outside of the tin with the ranger bands. That would give you a good start. This kit as it is was just poorly designed.

Hi
There are many of factors in survival.
One plan I found that succeeds in merging these is the Marla survive system
(check it out on google) without a doubt the most incredible survival website that I have ever heard of.
Check out the unbelievable free video. @Wingman115
I have spent months researching into prepping and found a fantastic website at Marla survive system (check it out on google)
Very nice kit my friend,thanks for the review.
Thanks Kip. It makes a nice little kit that's easy to have on your person at all times.
Hi i
ASE bestglide is the best website to get all the nifty bits that u need to put in your kit.
They sell everything, and are quit reasonably priced aswell.
This actually looks like a good kit, however the link you have provided, well I can't see the link there at all.
Do you have another link?
Jason Liddell your eye blind
That razor knife actually came in the Vietnam era Pilot escape and evade survival kit that was attached to the seat.
Thanks for watching and commenting.
Nice kit there, i could see use in all of it but that one item. That is better to have then none, but personally they are total garbage. That is the wire saw. anyone that has used these more then twice have broken them. I have broken a few on the first time use. They heat up and snap, so great review and thanks for sharing.
Thanks for stopping by.
I like it! The mirror and magnifier are pretty neat additions too! I'm not so sure about the saw. I always seemed to break them or they got clogged with sap in soft pine. Maybe they're better now than when I used to play with them.
Dry pine I believe the saw would work fine as tested in the video. Green pine might be a issue but it's something that's better than nothing. I would use toggles in the rings as it was killing my fingers when sawing.
patriot those saws are better then nothing but are garbage bro, everyone who uses them more then twice break them. If you went super slow and not heat it up you might get away with it to make a couple cuts. Tho they are sold in alot of survival kits. This kit has alot of good points and a nice kit, despite the saw lol.
***** Yeah, watched you go right through that dry one! I suppose that as long as it would cut through a limb that was larger than could otherwise be snapped / kicked off, it would be of benefit to have in the kit.
That is a lot of items in a small package. Thank you.
+Poet 628 It's a solid piece of kit for sur.
Better than other small survival kits that I have seen on UA-cam. Good tips for use. Great video.
it looks like this kit would make a big difference in a survival situation good video
Thanks for watching.
I used some high quality ferrocerium rods, actually they look like mischmetal rods as someone else called, which can easily make lots of fire balls instead of sparks when struck. I also compared them with Light My Fire & Firesteel flint fire starters, hardly to find difference between them. The manufacturer of the rods can be found at www.sinosed.com, their website. Hope it helpful to you guys!
good kit but the knife.. meh, i would replace it (or add another knife if room permits)
that kit is pretty in depth! for a small tin! i like!
It's been my observation that Best Glide markets good items. A kit like that could definitely save a life but you would be praying that the cavalry show up quick. :o)
Read the item source list in the video description they are using some good stuff in the kit. Thanks for stopping by my friend.
***** They are indeed. It's a good kit.
Really nice kit brother! Great presentation.
they fit quite a bit of stuff in there
It would be a great little kit to have on your motorcycle travels in the backcountry. Thanks for stopping by.
Nice touch with the coyote
Thank you.
Nice little kit sir.
Thanks Patrick.
only thing i would change is the cable saw ! would probably go with one made out of old chainsaw chain! and will still fit in the tin!
Good choice but it would increase the cost of the kit. That is a awesome item to have in a kit though.
well i meant if i were to buy the kit it would be a personal change . great kit tho man i will definately look into one of those would be a great gift to the wife for her car!
It's got better quality components than so e of the kits out there. It seems like you could fit some of your own components in there too. Like a SAK. Not too bad.
No. Knives do not belong in your kit. They belong in your pocket along with the kit...and that was said by Les Stroud himself. Anything small enough to fit in that tin won't be sturdy or large enough to do anything other than gut a fish, trim your nails or cut a bit of twine. Carry a 3 to 3.5 inch large frame folder in your pocket and forget about the tweezers, toothpick and scissors. Trinkets have no place in a life or death survival emergency.
finally a truly wonderful survival kit !!! thanks much and blessings to you and your family 🇺🇸😇🇺🇸😇🇺🇸😇
Thanks for watching.
Love your intro dude
Thank you..
Looks handy. I think I'll get one. Great vid. FYI you need to get out of Cali though!
Someone needs to stay behind enemy lines to help folks. LOL. Thanks for watching.
Good point! Great perspective and I respect that. LOL
Is there a way to possibly get thia kit or the civilian version
That kit was nice sir..im from philippines and i am a mountaineer..that thing would help a lot to me and to my team..badly theres no one here like that kit..hope to send me one..lol..
lemuell atienza www.helpprepare.me you can purchase that kit at... Thanks for check in from the PI. I visited there 6 times when I was in the navy. I love the culture and the people of the Philippines. Take care my friend.
Nice Kit Bro!
Great video man thanks for sharing
Your welcome thanks for stopping by.
What type of bag were u wearing in the beginning of the video?
Razor blade for food preparation
Leaving the Derma-Safe knife open after opening it bothered me greatly.
Life is to short let not your heart be troubled. I was in no danger...
i like the kit i wold get one. can i make the saw into a bow saw?
good review , u made same mistake everyone else does with the saw , u need to attached to a bow and use it as bow saw .
I will try it that way! Thanks for the 411.
Thats a pretty cool knife
Cool Video Dude. Nick.
***** Thanks for checking in.
Oh yeah thanks for the video man
Bruce Bruch Thanks Bruce keep learning the skills.
2019????
nice kit
Do a 72hour survival thingie with a survival kit
+The Moon Cat 👍🏻👊🏻
Skills can compensate for a lack of gear, gear cannot compensate for a lack of skills
No, but even the likes of Les Stroud and John Wiseman say to keep a PSK on you at all times...and know how to use it. Unless you're Matt Ghram, you can't just be dumped off somewhere and survive with nothing or nothing but a knife.
the tinder quick's from what i've seen and heard are weak,
i would replace them...
that's my thoughts!
Thanks for watching and commenting.
4.5?
Come off it. It's easily a 4.9. As commercial tobacco tin kits go it's excellent.
+leighrate 👍🏻👊🏻
As of 11/2018 Schrade sells their little pal pocket knife for $10 free shipping. Is is just a bit bigger than those folding razors and is an actual sturdy, frame-lock, pocket knife and takes up very little room in a tin.
Also, I carry a very small but solid little folder called a Spyderco Bug.
Keep a 3 to 3.5 inch folder in your pocket. Knives don't belong in a PSK, and that's from Less Stroud...not my own opinion.
@@angelus_solus ,
I definitely wouldn't argue against that way of thinking, but for those who *are* going to put a knife in anyway, I'd rather it be an actual sturdy and safe pocket knife instead of a chinsy razor blade.
Nice kit
Thanks for checking in brother.
What the name of the intro song?
Hey man im 14years old and have much money but i have reascently started peeping but can you do a bit on food
Good stuff... I like the size of the tin. what are the measurements of it. 4×6?
+LatinMatrixCrew More like 3x4.
why dont they have a mre in that thing if its a millitary poucket cary
Really..... Let's keep it real now. Lol
this is super survival kit
It's a solid kit for sure. Thanks for stopping by.
Good video
Do you have a Bug Out Bag?
I have a video on my channel of a Urban Survival Kit I carry in my car.
Wrap a bandana around it and wrap paracord around it
Lol are you seriously going to shove something in your pocket like that? The entire purpose is to have something small enough to slip into your trouser or coat pocket and forget about.
Where do you get one, nice kit
+Mattingly Jenkins You can get one at Prepare1 there website is www.helpprepare.me
great Tube 115!
I just noticed 'military' in the item name- highly doubt these are issue tins ?!? kinda misleading? be well!
+tony salimbene These tins for some units of the Armed Forces... The Company ASE makes a ton of stuff for the military.
+tony salimbene www.bestglide.com/Survival_Kits.html No misleading here brother... I work hard to give a honest review...
Do water purification tablets make the water taste funny?
+paintballisawsome Yes it will be a flat bland taste for sure but you won't get sick from nasties in the water...
***** I suppose that is all that matters when SHTF. Cheers for the info :)
Why don't u strike the steel
+Rhythmandrhymes music Have to keep these video's a little bit short or folks tap out.. Thanks for watching.
"on a scale from 1 to 5 I would give it a 4.5" then why not just rate it 9 out of 10!
Because it's my channel. LOL
+Wingman115 wow you replied quick. its real cool when youtubers reply to comments even when they are as pointless as my one was XD
Tuusol Silver
LOL Have a great day. Thanks for watching.

Great item to have in any kit for sure.
Where’s the amphetamine for “moral” lol

It was tough for sure.
no tick key .
No but it has just about everything else.
wingman where can i get 1 of that kit
www.bestglide.com/military_pocket_survival_tin.html
Wingman115 thank u very much
Where can i get one of these?
www.helpprepare.me
Thx man
no web site no pricing info NO SALE
Video is 5 years old..LOL
Cool
Thanks for stopping by.
Eh... One could put their own little together for less $$$
Mine wasn't less money, because I used better kit, but it is personalised exactly to what I'd need and know how to use. You're right though, a person should make their own. Even this one has a lot of fluff and was poorly designed. Really, the kit laid out in the SAS Survival Guide is better than this!
What happened to your finger
+Chief Wower That's a topic for a upcoming video...
While I like this kit... it does have one drawback for me it is very poorly organized. For example medical stuff was all over the place like the middle of the kit and the bottom. If you ask me they should relook at this kit and re-organize it
Tanner Kramer plastic bags would even be a good enough answer
LoTR Builders True if they were to have labeled plastic bags with each corresponding contents in that bag this kit would be a lot better.
First aid items do not belong in your PSK. They belong in the stage 1/minor injuries IFAK kept on your belt in a small case, such as what EMTs carry spare gloves in.
That's a lot of stuff for a tiny can
aww FOX
Hi
Hello.
WHERES THE FUCKEN LINK IN THE FLIPPING DROP DOWN
+Keith Cronk Old video dead link. Google is your friend. FYI don't drink anymore Red Bull's their making you look stressed out.
As soon as I saw that wire saw come out of the kit I knew this kit would be just awful and filled with all the gimmicky and unsuitable crap that 95% of these kits include. There are 3 types of wire saws like this: A heavyish weight one that looks like a small bicycle or chainsaw chain, a medium weight one that looks a bit like the one in this vid but with extra wires wrapped around the main line - and finally the almost smooth variety that usually snaps the very first time you use it. The real cream-of-the-crap type... like this one. Even if you are new to this kind of kit and aren't familiar with wire saws then *surely* you don't need to be a rocket scientist to see just how poor that knife is???
Honestly, the only reason to buy a pre-build kit like this one is if you are brand new to outdoor pursuits and have never had any kind of kit before. At least that way you have *something* to use as the basis for a *good* kit that you can swap the crappy stuff out in favour of decent items that are actually fit for the intended purpose.
Just my two pennies worth - but it bothers me that kits like these are so often given glowing reviews when they are just so, so blatantly damn awful.
can I have one that is cool
They are a great kit to have. Thanks for watching.
The title of this video is very deceptive . To call this item "military" in any way, shape ,or form is a flat out lie.
+fatraabbit1 Watch the video it say's so right on the label. And they do issue this kit so some military units... Do your homework before you start calling folks out..
The title of the video pretty much agrees when they put that question mark in it. It puts the question out there , "could this be military issue?". If it was , there would be a statement instead saying "Yes, this is military". Most everything in this kit can be bought on ebay to make this kit your self.
www.bestglide.com/Survival_Kits.html
not really a good kit I've seen much better
+noel5050 If you have any info on what would make a better kit please pass it on so I can share it with the folks...
It's not terrible it could work If needed but there's a lot of other options on the market that in my opinion would work better in most cases
+noel5050 Offer a solution. You through out the claim that their are better kits. Do the homework and back up the statement.. Post up a video and show us all.... It's easy to complain and make statements.. Step away from the computer keyboard and post up a video...
Omega survival 3 day kit in a can is a far superior small light survival kit for example.
+noel5050 It was indeed better. I had to laugh when he saws off the branch of a size you can just break off. Yeah, great saw, heheh. This kit is too expensive at 35$. The Omega was only 20 or 25$ and had more and better content. However I don't think they are still produced,
I'm not sure but ,if anyone else wants to learn about
survival food list home
try Franaar Spies Control Formula (should be on google have a look ) ? Ive heard some pretty good things about it and my buddy got great results with it.
