Reliable and reasonable advice from someone trained many levels above the common survivalist. No over-the-top fantasy scenarios that lead people into overloaded packs that are unmanageable. This is the real stuff.
Well done!
Thank you for the excellent content.
NOTE: If you live in the desert southwest, I'd HIGHLY recommend adding eye protection (goggles), a dust mask (N-95) and leather gloves for just your baseline kit. Dust storms (haboobs) can get nasty and edible cacti are hard to harvest with bare hands. Also a pair of long stainless steel tongs help with harvesting cacti too.
I go through leather gloves by the bundle. Always keep a couple pairs in the truck and my pack. I wear them all the time to protect my hands from even just getting dried out and cracking/bleeding. Goggles and eye drops for sure. Cheers!
@AZ Desert Prepper also consider carrying a small hair comb with fine teeth. You can use it to remove cacti, burrs, etc.
Also consider the type of goggles they accommodate eye glasses if someone wears them. It’s a good idea to have both contact lenses and eye glasses for those that wear prescription lenses. Switch the contacts out for glasses in a sandstorm or dusty area to help keep the crap out of your eyes while limiting the eyes from dust/sand etc.
@@Nunya9876 nice! Going to add that to the kit🤙
A multitool with pliers is better than metal tongs
FINALLY someone does a video on the tools needed to survival urban settings.
Probably more practical than all the forest skills/tools most survival videos concentrate upon. Thanks watching from Detroit area.
Your rationale regarding firearms and body armor is particularly smart - 'not necessary if you are fleeing a tornado or hurricane'. Too many people who are survival minded are too focused on firearms and the "cool" aspects of survival and their other preps suffer as a result. Thank you for the thoughtful content.
I would say differently after seeing the aftermath of Katrina and every Hurricane after that in the LA/MS/TX area...and the looting, violence and retarded LEO actions.
Thanks again for so much clean info. Id love to hear a brief pro/con on lock picks for the urban bag. Most folks could easily rake most padlocks in seconds, but it all comes down to the objective i guess. You've been great!
Fencing pliers are great in woods & urban. Very dual purpose too
For any environment when you can take the weight of tools like your talking about here I would carry and I do in my vehicle kit is Fence Pliers. Cutters, hammer and a pick in a one pound tool. I am in S. Florida so my kits don't change very much.
Appreciate the way you delineate between not just tempral areas but also societal areas, and you're eplanation of why.
Thank you for your service, and thank you for sharing all of your priceless knowledge.🙏🏽🤘🏽
The pliers is used to cut wire so you can tie your wood shelter, and the mini crowbar to not only pry doors or windows, but to pull nails to use on a shelter or man/animal traps.
Thanks for the run through. I watched your hour long basic bag as well today. Interesting. I have almost exact same in my bags on all counts. There really are only so many ways to make a wheel. Best to you.
We always tend to go a bit over the top with medical supplies & kits. One of Beautiful Brides college degrees is RN. I believe it would be a waste of her skill set to need something and not have it in an emergency. Man, you are spot on concerning customization based on your operating environment and perceived needs. I relocated to the Philippines Islands from the north east US to check out possible retirement here. That was almost eleven years ago. No more ice storms that take out power for long periods of time. In all my life I had only one earthquake that I could actually feel just before I moved.
It is a whole new challenge here in the Phils with earthquakes, typhoon season starting in June most years and occasional volcanic activity. Our subdivision is located on the General Douglas MacArthur national highway. It is, however, not a long hike to get out in to some rural areas. We can go a long way with little gear in the beginning of an emergency. You need to know the culture and habits of your area. I tell all new EX-pats, carry cash deep in the pocket (where it safer from pick-pockets) of your jeans. Cash really is king here, plastic money is nearly useless except at malls and large supermarkets.
There are little Sari Sari stores lining almost every road. They will be open until all stock runs out, some 24/7. If, for example, I had to hike a few klicks across town to help Mother-in-law, I would be packing only items she asked for that we know could not be easily purchased. Water for the hike, a few snack bars and CASH. If additional water or snacks are needed, there will be several days supply along the way .When the emergency ramps up & becomes more serious, that is the time we break out storage supplies, bug-out bags alternative energy equipment and whatever else is needed to ride it out. A portion of our supplies are kept at Mother-in-laws across town. If we had to, yes, my family is well prepared to hike the approximately 133 miles / 215 kilometers to a secondary home base where life will continue. I am getting old and might not endure the hike but I am POSITIVE our young troops and Beautiful Bride will make it.
If you genuinely envision needing to walk 133 miles, you’d be foolish to not invest $300 in a decent bicycle.
There’s no reason whatsoever to walk that far on roads. Bike trailers are cheap…used baby trailers are even cheaper. Get on Craigslist and pick one up. Might even pick up a healthy hobby and increase your longevity in the non apocalyptic life.
I live in New York City and have everything he’s showing here. I’ve used everything even though it hasn’t happened yet. But trust me when I say it will. And sooner than you can imagine.
Small hacksaw. Lock picks.
Once again...very informative and worth the emulation.....practical and real info regarding prepping and supplemental kits...once the juice is worth the squeeze.
Thank you, this is the type information that will save lives. Good Job!
The key to access urban water sources would come in handy if a person had to venture into or through an urban environment while traversing from point A to point B. Thank you for that helpful bit of information. Additionally, I live in Wisconsin and the winter would be an especially brutal time to be out in the elements - probably similar to upstate NY. Thanks again.
I currently live in Illinois and I'm pretty sure our winters around these parts are worse than NY. First time I came here it was -20 with a wind chill to -30. Last winter wasn't so bad, but my in-laws have talked about times it's gotten to -50 in Chicago. I lived further down the Appalachian chain than he does before moving here and our winters were harsh but I think the coldest I ever dealt with there was barely below zero.
@@ajherring92 That weather sounds brutal and would be a tough environment to survive in. I can imagine freezing to death if the gear isn't up to the task or the fire goes out. Hopefully, the collapse occurs during summer - then the mosquitos - Wisconsin's state bird come calling.
@@h-minus2212 Yeah hopefully it occurs in the summer and after I move somewhere warmer. I could manage an NC Appalachian winter with my Pendleton blanket, warming layers and a poncho liner. I'm not sure that would cut it here.
@@ajherring92 My wife and I have waffled back and forth about moving to a more southern latitude but then we would encounter different issues - more garden pests, greater likelihood of drought, and so on. The Pendleton blanket is a good piece of kit.
@@h-minus2212 Depends on where you go south. Most of the east coast is not gonna have problems with drought, but you get hurricanes and snakes. Lots of snakes. Also wild pigs and other fun stuff.
Silcock Key is as heavy as a boat anchor and is redundant. Needle nose pliers on a leatherman will open the silcock just fine.
Knipex wrench/pliers are top gear. The modern world is made of nuts and bolts.
A silcock key weighs under 6 ounces, I would recommend a much heavier choice to anchor a boat.
@@GrayBeardedGreenBeret I'd still rather use the 6 oz for a Knipex wrench. I always have a multitool anyway.
I checked Amazon, the Knipex 5" wrench weighs 3.7 oz.

Jaw capacity: 7/8 inches

I'm a subscriber and like most of what you say, I disagree on this one though.
I made ghillie suit for just hunting in my area. I made it out of frog tog rain suit. I warmest thing i have in the middle of the winter
Hey bud I’m a little south of you I’m jumping on my TW 200 and bugging out to the Adirondack mtns. I’m near Rochester NY now. Thanks for the tips. I’m also a CCW our governor is an asshat.
All great builds. I’d recommend checking out a propane converter for the pocket rocket- they’re so small and light, and propane is everywhere in the urban/suburban environment.
For the urban supplemental, one thing to consider is a small hacksaw like plumbers use. A saw can fairly quickly go through some pretty thick material that a small bolt cutter or linesman pliers can't handle. They don't weigh much either.
I might replace the mini bolt cutters or linesman pliers with vice grips. They have a built in cutter that is fine for most wire fences, but add the ability to remove bolts. A bit set will then allow you to remove screws, just clamp the bit in the jaws. Additionally, they can be used for a make shift clamp- break a pack strap type of temporary repair. A lock pick set might be worth considering (and practicing with), even for rural- if theres a gate pulled shut on some not often used road, you can probably pick the padlock in a minute or two.
thanks you for sharing your wealth of knowledge with us!!!
Awesome video.
Folks we are in deep Sh!@T .. deeper than they’re willing to admit. Prepare so you can weather the storm. If you’re young and/or new to prepping, I’m happy to offer advice or guidance. God bless
A great kit & rig with a few options. Very informative vid matey. Cowabunga mate.!
Thank you
Good informational video Joshua , thanks for sharing , God bless !
Great stuff.
Everything to my left of the water key the cops would call burglary tools and arrest me.
Along with my get home bag in my vehicle.. I have a supplemental bag with extra coats..gloves .. underwear and socks.. unfortunately I did not have a extra pair of long pants!
I was out of state at a state fair wearing shorts and suddenly the temperature dropped down into the 40s and extremely windy gust.. I was freezing luckily I layered up with the jackets I had in my vehicle..NO long pants though so I was still pretty chilly but at least it was bearable.. I have since put an extra pair of long pants in my supplementary clothing bag
A medium size ALUMINUM pipe wrench (not STEEL) gives you access to water FROM almost any fire hydrant. Oftentimes, hydrants are out off the road and away from prying eyes in urban environments.
City water lines need to be under pressure. If the water plant pumps are off there will be no water coming out of the potable water system....
G'day Josh, definitely logical distinctions between baseline and supplemental kits there mate, great stuff !!!
I have heard a few "poo poo" a silcox key; sure no taps in the woods, but indispensable if you are in town, or need to come into town to procure water, and for the size/weight/price, just why wouldn't ya ?..........jeez there's some ignoramuses out there.
A quick one on pliers; a leatherman is never gonna be as effective, efficient or as versatile as a decent pair of linesman's pliers. If you need a back up blade, saw, awl, tweezers etc, get an appropriate SAK, if you need pliers at all, take proper pliers, well worth the extra carry IMO.
Cheers Duke.
JMO- personally I wouldn't be
trying to access any private property
or any locked fenced in anything.
The few people I know that have
businesses and warehouse areas
would be defending their property
in times of turmoil and it would
definitely not be a good idea to
try and breach any security someone
has on their property.
The weight of those tools precludes
extra rations and potable water that
would sustain you. I'd be working
toward getting away from any areas
that are potentially dangerous and
toward my safe area.
Just a thought
Good
point
Nice!
Awesome information. And advice on maneuvering with small children?
mopp (화생방) 장비 가이드도 만들어주십쇼~!!
Josh, you touched on your base layer for cold layering. Can you mention some more about brands for that? Primarily your wind, and waterproof layer? Thanks for all of your videos, and sharing your knowledge.
Please?
The brands dont matter. More important is the material used. Wool and cotton are best for cold/wet insulation and a waterproof rainsuit that also breaths, sits below the hips and has a hood and matching pants are good when the rain slides off of the jacket onto your legs. A waterproof thermal blanket would be good as well.
@@northernlassie2755 yes, I use wool for everything, but was looking for a two piece rain/windproof suit so that I can focus my poncho for a shelter
If i over think bugging out i will be over weight.... Gun knife map tarp water straw hardtack
How about a spare loincloth? Seriously, that is about as minimalist as you can get.
@@jamescrowe7892 i will let you wear mine big boy!...lmao
ask a homless,not a fully supported miltary short term operation.a canteen,a warm bed, a roof over your head on a rainy night,a light, a knife can opener and a spoon
Great information. I have the ILBE Marine pack, my wife has the Army aqiuvelant , I bought them years ago and have lessened the weight the older we get. They are nothing I am afraid to say we could manage to carry very far any longer. Our only hope would be to toss them in the truck if we had to bug out. We also have GHBs in both rigs that are a way smaller version of the BOB..Now that we have a bug out location I can think of a lot of things in the BOB now that can stay there thanks to your info.👍Are you in NYS ?
👍
Hey there from Hunland 😊(eastern EU) What's your opinion about the Ghosthood instead of the ghillie? Very smal folded and not so sluggish.
Luckily where I'm from "camo" would be considered "gray man".... It's a fashion statement lol
Sounds like where I grew up 😂
👌🏿
What would you recommend for a edged weapon/multitool? Should I look at 1 for each purpose or is there 1 that will meet all the needs.
I'm no expert but I would choose one for each purpose. A multi tool could be lost in combat and they aren't very ergonomic.
I thought you said trail tampons...lol. I was wondering where your bushcraft mind was going with this...
Lol
mopp 물품은 왜 없나요 형님?
You can buy a belt that carries these items and more. Try getting like minded friends to agree because cities are very dangerous.
