    I think its not a survival kit per se, I think it’s emergency camping items in case you forgot something at home. It’s decent for the price too! Thanks for sharing.

    If that kit was just $15 to $20, it would be worth it just for the pouch/bag. Then you can strip out the Chinese crap and replace with better quality items you already have at home. If I bought that, I’d pull most of that stuff out, put in what I wanted that I already have, and just use the pouch/pack.

      Here's my DIY compact kit that you won't leave in your car or at base camp :
      Belt Pack or Fanny Pack Survival Kit :
      Zip-Loc bag as waterproof liner
      Bic lighter wrapped with Gorilla tape, rubber band,twist tie, wire, relectve orange paracord and tab blocked to prevent leakage.
      Match book from MRE ( water resistant)
      Fresnel lens
      Button compass
      Whistle (loud flat one from Tops Knives)
      Toothpick
      Diaper pin
      Sabre saw blade
      Hacksaw blade piece
      Razor blade ( single edge)
      Needle
      P-38 can opener *
      *( sharp items taped onto a card with clear packaging tape )
      Photon Micro Lite flashlight
      Zip tie
      Pencil stub and paper
      Trail marking clip tab
      Clif bar snack
      Condom as emergency canteen (unlubricated)
      Coffee filter
      Large Bandaid and small Bandaid
      Alcohol prep pad
      Benedryl pills (3)
      Imodium A-D (2)
      Q-Tip
      Aluminum foil ( folded) for bowl making, cooking, signeling
      Chemical hand warmer
      Moleskin
      Rubber square from inner tube with cuts as fire starter
      Sandpaper Square 400 Grit for knife sharpening
      Dental floss roll ( unwaxed and removed from housing)
      Mylar space blanket with ranger band around it
      Rain emergency poncho
      NOTE : Many items are useful as tinder and otherwise multi-purpose. Weight under 1.5 pounds.
      This kit will be attached to you even if you aren't carrying a backpack or lose your pack. It is portable enough to obviate the need for an Altoids tin kit or other inadequate gimmicky survival kit.

    It’s not a bad kit, but I’d definitely add on to it like you suggested. Replacing the knife for a fixed handle one, adding a multi-use tool and also a Life Straw for water or like you said to add water purification tablets. So many other items can be added to make this kit better.

    Replace the scissors with xshears, put gauze, liquid bandaid, medical tape and pain reliever pills, replace the multi tool with a Swiss army one, or a Leatherman, add clear liter water bags, purification tablets and a mini lifestraw water filter, 1 mylar blanket, 1 poncho, weatherproof matches, rite in the rain notepad, ductape around a credit card and of course a bic lighter. Should all fit nice and snug maybe add 25feet of bank line as well. Just the bag alone makes it a good purchase in my opinion

    It's a weird mash-up of items and not really a survival kit. I was surprised it didn't have the emergency blankets as those seem to be in everything these days. I guess it's a good way to get a selection of items you can then use in other kits.

    If that kit was just $15 to $20, it would be worth it just for the pouch/bag. Then you can strip out the Chinese crap and replace with better quality items you already have at home. If I bought that, I’d pull most of that stuff out, put in what I wanted that I already have, and just use the pouch/pack.
