For me the urban survival and edc priority is NSO. Not Standing Out. In urban environment any military green or camo colour special toolbelt is standing out like a sore thumb, people get nervous, it draws attention. I mean they are good for the woods. But in urban environment I use simple grey black brown and blue colours. Simple sport looking backpack or notebook bag looking like sidebag for work. Urban survival edc 101: Be gray man, blend in the crowd, be able to disappear in seconds in emergency.
Here in Spain I wear whatever I want because no one is paranoid here and no one stares at you unlike other parts of Europe and especially the US. Glad I bailed that dump LA back in 98 when times were supposedly good.
@@donnywilkes6417 There is only 4 emergency when literally everyone at once becomes a target. Chemical/biological event, nuclear fallout, extraplanetary disaster, innerplanetary disaster. If these happen really doesn't matter what am I wearing. But there is a lot more when it really matters. Most possible ones are local disasters, accidents, attacks, economy shocks, dangers of sudden martial law especially for us in middle/eastern europe. Local social collapse can be caused by anything in which it really matters how I appear during the outbreak, how I am seen, whether I can become a target or immediately disappear from the barbaric masses. someone who immediately catches your eye and you can identify, or someone who you can't describe because he looked just like any other person in the crowd. if you already carry a military bag, you are immediately identifiable.That's what I meant basically.
I would add a lighter and some water purification tablets and a few of the toilet tissue tablets. Also change the inside medical kit for better items, like 4x4s, Iodine swabs, pain meds, and items for worse injuries. Also a shamogg scarf as a a sling, for warmth, water filter and so on. Some food like high energy bars too. Finally a little poncho and space blanket. That covers food, water, shelter, first aid, tools. Another pair of socks is nice too.
Using the same watch since almost 2 years , Bought it in middle east for 23 euro , changed its strap into 22mm Nylon Loop Belt . waiting for to upgrade into G Schock
I like your setup. I would suggest adding a lighter, I would carry a bigger water bottle with more water and perhaps some water purification tabs or a Lifestraw water filter. They are small and light and if you had to walk home would be important. Here in the US I carry a silcock key. Not sure how it is in Europe, but here commercial buildings require a silcock to open their outside water spigot. It can also open some train doors... A local paper map, so you have the option of backstreets. Moleskin in your first aid kit for blistered feet. Some protein bars ...I try to imagine what I would need if I had no option but to walk home! Also I love your dog!
My dogs have never helped me unfold an emergency blanket. How does that work? Maybe you have Labrador unfolders... I want to have one to help with my laundry. Emotional support labrador laundry folder. My Yorkies just trash everything. I think they have ADD.
For training, making a plastic and dull aluminum versions of the large knife. Practice with those, drill, spar, pressure test. Use the real one if only for practice scenarios. And an ifak. Cat tourniquet. Stop the bleed. As the top guys say, if you're training to make holes, learn to plug them.
The MacGyver watch comes with a paper clip, one match head, and used chewing gum. They are stored in the secret side compartments much like a swiss army knife.
Sure. The notebook is useless if you don`t have a pen - it can be a good fire starting fuel, though... When Lily is talking about a notebook, she probably means notebook with a pen.
Some suggestions; A full size pair of tweezers. The Swiss Army knife tweezers are weak and have flat edges. And, once you pull out the tweezers from your SAK, you run the risk of losing them, or misplacing your knife. Upgrade your water bottle to a quart/liter size. Most purification tablets are designed for this volume. Plus, you may want more water later on, before you have a chance to refill the bottle. With that said, maybe packing some tablets too. A bandanna weighs nothing, but has endless possibilities. An RFID bag used to prevent ‘credit card information theft’ may work as a Faraday cage. Definitely worth checking into. The metal loop at the end of your knife grip, is for a lanyard. It could work as a glass breaker, but a small piece of cord tied to the handle would speed up the draw from the magazine pouch. Great video!!
Thanks for the video! I recently discovered hot glue (Patronen von Heißklebepistolen) and put one stick in my get home bag. you can use these with a lighter and they dont dry out like other glue will (especially small super glue tubes). just a recomendation.
I have been wearing the same cheap Casio watch since 1989 it works dont worry about breaking wore it camping hiking working construction, its a good watch.
Digital watches will not work in a neuclear war. Any nuke detonation will fry any digital watches. You should look at getting an older mechanical watch that you have to wind and dont take any batteries. Love the show Lilly.
Emergency C electrolyte packet can also be used on a burn for immediate healing. Just wet burned skin and pat on powder, the vitamin c heals skin in 10 mins.
Please also consider using some kind of lanyard or cordage to tether the small flashlights that are loose in the packs. This will make them easier to find to use in low light/dark/at night.
Hi Lilly. Great info. Like your Faraday tin. For best results you need to ensure the the top has a bare metal contact (no paint etc preventing low resistance electrical contact). You can stop the contact surfaces corroding by using N0-OX-ID paste. Protect the battery charger by wrapping it in aluminum foil. Keep battery in a plastic bag to prevent shorting it then wrap in foil to protect the battery's internal control and protection circuits.
I have a cave on my property and probably to many air weapons, knives,axes etc, I’m going to get it sorted as my bug out space for when the 💩hits the fan(notice I said WHEN not if) the is always a damp patch that I’m going to investigate if it’s a natural spring, at present it’s got a steel door and bars on the window drilled directly into the rock, you advise is always full of useful ideas
May I suggest on your first aid kit. find a slightly larger bag and toss in some vet wrap and some 4x4 gauze pads for your pup. Oh may I also suggest picking up a rite-in-the-rain note pad and pen.
Your dog walking belt has such a first aid kit all you're missing is a water filter, a fire kit and an emergency blanket just to be complete... Smaller dogs can pull like crazy... my Cocker Spaniel used to turn my hand blue as I had to wrap the leash around my hand twice to prevent her from pulling the leash out of my hand. With a shortened leash I was able to pull her off her front paws, which was the only way to stop her from rushing at people.
Flashahol: This is Lilly we are talking to. A fire kit to her would be surplus to requirements. If she needed a fire I am sure she would find two boy scouts to rub together in just a couple of minutes :)
Regarding pulling dogs: You should train your dog when it`s still young, no matter the size or breed. Then it will behave. With proper training, it will walk beside you, even without the leash.
About the watch: I wear a very similar one from casio, but because it reminds me of "Knight Rider" :) In memory of MacGyver I cary a "classic" red Victorinox...like everybody should ;)
From Massachusetts, USA great video. Either so much equipment available and information on it, there is NO excuse not to prepared or at least getting ready to be.
That is a good start. It is also a good MacGyver pack. For the things you find along the way. Plus the only way that knife would be for self defense is on your hip. Would like to see more of your bag after using it for awhile.
Nice video Lilly, Personally, I do not like a pocket clip on a knife. It's awkward in the hand, and causes hot-spots in your hand if you have to use it for a lengthy period of time. Looks like you have a well thought out kit. I would add a spare pair of eyeglasses to your kit in case something were to happen to the ones you're wearing. It also might help to keep a snack in your kit. Hard candy, energy bars etc. Adding something like Liquid I.V. packets , or Propel Powder Packets with Electrolytes &Vitamins, to mix with your water is also a good idea. It helps replace the Electrolytes you lose when sweating. They don't weigh much at all, and come in handy. I also have 8 Mil Disposable Orange Nitrile Heavy-Duty Gloves in my kit too. Great video, thanks for sharing your EDC with us. JT
Lilly something you could maybe add is fly/fishing lures and fishing line💪Very light but I guess a person would only need it if there was a war. Anyway, thanks for showing us it is good to know what is possible🙏
You may want to look into a kind of leash collar called “gentle lead” it is designed so that the dog can’t pull as much because they can’t put thier full body of strength into the loop to force forward. It’s not painful or anything but it does help enough that I don’t worry about my kids being dragged
Love your videos Lilly. I carry a small messenger bag. Doesn’t stand out like a tactical bag. I have trained in herbalism and wildcrating/foraging too. I raised both of my kids on survival techniques. With the crazy shit going on in the world they get it now.
Thank you for showing this video!! I liked the idea of how you store the electronics in a bandage container that is awesome. I respect your ideas and implementations in your edc.
The basic Casio watch hasn't changed significantly since the '80s ...it does what watches do, and does it reliably. The Swiss Army knife is generally recognized as a tool and not a weapon...almost worldwide.
You are so fortunate. Where I live (Canada), it is illegal to carry any kind of device for the purpose of self-defense against human beings. Pocket kvnives as an everyday tool are legal, so I carry a heavy folder that provides finger protection.
I would add a small pack of “quick clot powder” to aid to stop bleeding to your first aid kit…(I purchase it from Amazon in a five pack)…I’m on prescription blood thinners and I never leave home without it…thank you for your channel and content…God bless you girl 🤘🙏🤘🙏🤘🙏
Spider web believe it or not is a styptic. My late mother always used it to stop wound bleeding when we were kids. Yarrow (Achillea millefolium) is another 🙏🏼
Hi Lilly, very nice survival packs. My favorite, your utility belt. Most of the essentials at your finger tips. Also, I like the Casio watch, it lasted me the longest of even the more expensive watches. Its accurate and very tough. Thanks for the video. 🙂
Great video, Lily. The Coleman "Family" 82 piece 1st aid kit is plenty large enough to carry your Faraday items. I think it may be too large for the pack you showed but at 14x8x4cm it should serve for all of the electronics you showed.
Lilly, 1. I love your accent! 2. Your dog is so pretty! 3. Very nice EDC pack and the items you have in there are very similar to mine minus a Firearm! I do live in 🇺🇸 so i am lucky to have that option but you do have a great set up and it looks like all your needs are met inside that bag
Lilly: here's my EDC and survival pack. Here's my pocket knife, ..., here's my self defense knife, ..., here's my pocket saw, ..., here's my fixed blade knife... I think Lilly likes her knives! 😁 I'm a little surprised that the fixed blade wasn't an APO-1S! Luv how each kit is self contained even if there are doubles like the first aid kit AND the active belt has pepper spray. Pepper spray is an excellent EDC item! Lilly - Please note, the faraday cage won't be effective without an insulator. Line the interior of the metal can with card board and you'll drastically increase it's effectiveness!
Just noted that my faraday cage for toothpaste is probably a bit of overkill. Maybe I can put my socks in there. My point is - after an emp, who do I really trust to communicate with in the first place? It's not ATT.
@@waynehendrix4806 Ham radios need EMP protection. I will want to communicate with my community using radio. Digital libraries will need EMP protection and can be a huge help after an event. Solar generators will need EMP protection and electricity will be useful after an event.
@@waynehendrix4806 Most people, like more than 99% of world population don`t carry a Faraday cage with them, more than half don`t even know what it is. So, even if you save your electronics like your phone in case of an EMP attack, who will you use them with?
I bought that Victorinox a few weeks ago, when I saw it on one of your other videos. It was listed on Ebay as used, but basically it is in perfect condition, only red. Great knife, thanks. Wayne out West (Colorado)
Lilly that powerbank is great, I love it. Since it doesn't quite fit in your tin, you could just wrap it in foil for now. Then you'll have some foil too :)
Very informative video! I would add a four-way silcock key to your kit. You might want to access a spigot on the outside of a commercial building for a source of water.
Good set up that works for you. That is what's important; that it works for you! Sounds like you may be off in the brush during your walks. I would add at least one TQ; two would be better. For the possibility of having a puncture wound in the femoral artery in event of a stumble, a limb snapping back, etc. Keep up the good work. It's much appreciated. Gott Segne from the USA.
Personally I have a black backpack from decathlon, it's called escape. Have a look at it, it's very suitable for my needs and it blends in urban perfect.
☕🏞️ nice belt pack, like it. Your right, nothing is inexpensive anymore, cheap maybe 😅. Pretty cool backpack. Like the Arkansas toothpick knife, cool sheath👍. You've got a little of everything in that pack, like the little black plyers. Good day to y'all 🤝
Nice! Hey, have you ever considered a crystal radio for keeping abreast of news via AM radio without the need for power? One can be easily made from an old credit card! That would definitely be a hyper-compact bit of kit for your EDC, yeah? 🙂
I would carry a whistle on the dog waking pack because you are likely to be jumped walking your dog because there are less people around then when you are going to the store with your full pack. and more people will alert to a whistle than yelling
I like your belt , never saw one before . I think you need to put fabric or something between your faraday cage and the stuff in your faraday cage for it to work properly . another great show thank you from Canada .
The best urban survival kit is a ticket out of the city before marshals law, or no law, starts. I like the mini screwdriver inside of it auger bit. That’s a nice belt, looks like a good lower back support. I add suspenders for heavy belts. Should put some magazines in those pouches for both the handguns on your person.
@@HolgerDanske correct, usually spelling it that way gets deleted. We are under Martial rule already. Have been since Roosevelt. It’s different than law, but suspends constitution when deemed necessary by the military leadership
Hi Lilly, could you please make a video about how to do a confinement with a dog for several weeks in a cellar to shelter against any radiation in case of nuclear war? Thanks !
Unfortunately here in UK i would get arrested carrying any knifes like that or the pepper spray. Some sprays are legal here but the cops would still pull me for it. A female would maybe be ok but not a guy. The Swiss army knife would be ok though. But if it comes to the time where i have to go outside prepared i dont care about the cops, my survival comes priority. A good self defence weapon is a boot lace (2ft long) with nut or bolt tied on the end. It could crack a persons skull open and neither componants are illegal seperate. Think simple and stay low key !❤🙏
Hi, Lilly. I've seen some episodes of the rebooted MacGyver series and what I'd took from it, learnt some new imaginative skills. It would be nice for you to get another better condition van in case something major happened.👍
Is there a ferro rod in that pack for starting fires? If there is I missed it. Lilly has great knowledge. I wish our American children were taught survival skills in public school.
I don't know how effective the faraday cage would be with that paint or ink around the opening. Should be bare metal to metal when closed. Just an observation
Hi Lilli I would like to ask you about the price of the dager and from where did you bought it . Thank you and i am looking forward to your new videos.
Here in Canada, if you asked me if i carried a knife 10 years ago I would have laughed at you. Now i never leave the house without a knife, sure its in my purse cause they really dont make good pockets on womens clothes, so in the purse it goes. Unfortunately thats considered a concealed weapon in Canada. So....hopefully I never need it. Thank you for sharing your load out! ♥️🇨🇦♥️
Don't stop carrying it, laws be damned when your life is at risk. But consider adding to it, perhaps mace/pepper spray/taser/ etc. Whatever you can afford and feel comfortable using without hurting yourself instead.
@@johnturtle6649 Thank you! I've looked for pepper spray, but that's illegal in Canada so are tasers unfortunately. You can buy a big can of bear mace, but you practically need a holster to carry that....aka won't fit in a purse, unlike those little pepper spray they sell in the States. I'm starting to think moving to the states is a good plan, cause they don't want you being prepared/ self sufficient in Canada!!
They make pepper spray that looks like a pen. Also a tactical pen or kubaton are great for self defense. As far as the knife, if you clip it to waist of your pants, on the inside, and wear a belt over the clip it practically disappears only to be found if you are frisked.
I appreciate your channel. Why did you not have any means to start a fire if you get caught out in the cold or woods or something and a blanket or means to stay warm and dry??? Just curious.....maybe a tarp even to make a tent or shelter out of and some rope to lash things if needed....just curious?
Hello Lilly. I am with you about the knife but the law in the EU and of course in Austria is very strict about knives. If the police stops you for a check will be in trouble. Even if you proctect yourself from a bad guy by stabing him you will end up in jail. In my country even a small knife from a nail clipper, especially if it has a locking mechanism it is considered illigal.
can i suggest a metal watch with a metal bracelet for (limited) self defence? oso, i think the whistle should be in a sealed plastic pouch for hygiene purposes. in all, its a very good set-up. i love the foldable metal ✂, a classic. Tatonka makes great pouches, so does Blackhawk.👍 unfortunately, Tasmanian Tiger packs are not available in my country.
I have a hard time finding this usb radio stick and the mini ratchet. Somehow I can't find for the live of me the correct search terms to find this on Google, eBay or Amazon. I'd be really curious about where to buy these
Does anyone know for sure if the Ikea Duktig children's cooking set is safe to use as a campfire cook kit. It is advertised as a toy and described as stainless steel. Seen a few videos where the person said it was for camping but no one has shown the pan used in an actual fire.
Love your Videos Lily. I've been subscribed to your Chanel with my personal account for quite some years. I just opened my own Chanel and posted my first outdoor adventure video. Looking forward to get more into survival and learning way more from your Videos. Thank you and keep it up.
For me the urban survival and edc priority is NSO. Not Standing Out. In urban environment any military green or camo colour special toolbelt is standing out like a sore thumb, people get nervous, it draws attention. I mean they are good for the woods.

Yes, I loved that MacGyver call out. He inspired many of Gen X!!!
Lots of good ideas. I would add a notebook and pen, pace counter, a map, and nail clippers. My most used EDC are my gloves and notebook. Good video.

Luv how each kit is self contained even if there are doubles like the first aid kit AND the active belt has pepper spray. Pepper spray is an excellent EDC item!
Lilly - Please note, the faraday cage won't be effective without an insulator. Line the interior of the metal can with card board and you'll drastically increase it's effectiveness!
Just noted that my faraday cage for toothpaste is probably a bit of overkill. Maybe I can put my socks in there. My point is - after an emp, who do I really trust to communicate with in the first place? It's not ATT.
@@waynehendrix4806 Ham radios need EMP protection. I will want to communicate with my community using radio.
Digital libraries will need EMP protection and can be a huge help after an event.
Solar generators will need EMP protection and electricity will be useful after an event.
@@waynehendrix4806 Most people, like more than 99% of world population don`t carry a Faraday cage with them, more than half don`t even know what it is. So, even if you save your electronics like your phone in case of an EMP attack, who will you use them with?
I bought that Victorinox a few weeks ago, when I saw it on one of your other videos. It was listed on Ebay as used, but basically it is in perfect condition, only red. Great knife, thanks. Wayne out West (Colorado)
Lilly that powerbank is great, I love it. Since it doesn't quite fit in your tin, you could just wrap it in foil for now. Then you'll have some foil too :)
Very informative video! I would add a four-way silcock key to your kit. You might want to access a spigot on the outside of a commercial building for a source of water.
Have a blessed day and Enjoy life from Bridgeport Connecticut
Excellent well put together and thought out EDC kit, love the belt setup
Good set up that works for you. That is what's important; that it works for you! Sounds like you may be off in the brush during your walks. I would add at least one TQ; two would be better. For the possibility of having a puncture wound in the femoral artery in event of a stumble, a limb snapping back, etc. Keep up the good work. It's much appreciated. Gott Segne from the USA.
Personally I have a black backpack from decathlon, it's called escape. Have a look at it, it's very suitable for my needs and it blends in urban perfect.
☕🏞️ nice belt pack, like it. Your right, nothing is inexpensive anymore, cheap maybe 😅. Pretty cool backpack. Like the Arkansas toothpick knife, cool sheath👍.
You've got a little of everything in that pack, like the little black plyers. Good day to y'all 🤝
I love that mini radio
no flint and steel/rod/ waterproof matches/ lighter?
Happy St Patrick's Day Lilly 💚👾🍀🪴
Thank you, my friend for sharing all your knowledge, your friend in the USA, Gary.
Nice! Hey, have you ever considered a crystal radio for keeping abreast of news via AM radio without the need for power? One can be easily made from an old credit card! That would definitely be a hyper-compact bit of kit for your EDC, yeah? 🙂
I would carry a whistle on the dog waking pack because you are likely to be jumped walking your dog because there are less people around then when you are going to the store with your full pack. and more people will alert to a whistle than yelling
I like your belt , never saw one before . I think you need to put fabric or something between your faraday cage and the stuff in your faraday cage for it to work properly . another great show thank you from Canada .
Amy is a great looking dog
I think a self winding non battery watch is best..EMP proof. Still made, good ones available at affordable prices.
What about fire starting kit ?
Good break down Lilly. I don't know what is available in Europe, but if you can get them, a couple tourniquets would be worth considering. Stay safe!
The best urban survival kit is a ticket out of the city before marshals law, or no law, starts. I like the mini screwdriver inside of it auger bit. That’s a nice belt, looks like a good lower back support. I add suspenders for heavy belts. Should put some magazines in those pouches for both the handguns on your person.
Martial law.
@@HolgerDanske correct, usually spelling it that way gets deleted. We are under Martial rule already. Have been since Roosevelt. It’s different than law, but suspends constitution when deemed necessary by the military leadership
@@HolgerDanske although more dangerously we are realistically under marshal matters law. The cities and suburbs are full of Eminem wannabes
Hi Lilly, could you please make a video about how to do a confinement with a dog for several weeks in a cellar to shelter against any radiation in case of nuclear war? Thanks !
What radio is that? Neat piece of kit
Really solid edc, thank you very much
We don't hear any bad news about Austria here in US, we already have enough of our own!
Teh mini screwdriver in the corkscrew is clever, tickled my brain a bit but would totally work. I don't know if that a new thing, but I never seen it.
I had exactly the same victorinox knife but I lost it ;(... It was such a great tool I never left my house without it. Now i need to buy a new knife.
Unfortunately here in UK i would get arrested carrying any knifes like that or the pepper spray.
Some sprays are legal here but the cops would still pull me for it. A female would maybe be ok but not a guy. The Swiss army knife would be ok though.
But if it comes to the time where i have to go outside prepared i dont care about the cops, my survival comes priority.
A good self defence weapon is a boot lace (2ft long) with nut or bolt tied on the end. It could crack a persons skull open and neither componants are illegal seperate.
Think simple and stay low key !❤🙏
Are bike locks and chains legal there? Same principle.
7:40 Crocodile Dundee considers this a knife.😀
Hi, Lilly. I've seen some episodes of the rebooted MacGyver series and what I'd took from it, learnt some new imaginative skills.
It would be nice for you to get another better condition van in case something major happened.👍
All good info Liky. I'm revamping my get home bag and looking for something new. Thanks for the info.
Hey that watch not bad some are buttons to big where are and can mess time up accidently
Another excellent and informative video. Thank you for sharing it.
Interesting. I think the belt is a good idea. I'll copy part of you edc. You should carry a traditional folding knife.
A small cookie tin lined with cardboard you could carry more. What do you think of those lighters that can melt a soda can
Is there a ferro rod in that pack for starting fires? If there is I missed it. Lilly has great knowledge. I wish our American children were taught survival skills in public school.
I don't know how effective the faraday cage would be with that paint or ink around the opening. Should be bare metal to metal when closed. Just an observation
Hi Lilli
I would like to ask you about the price of the dager and from where did you bought it .
Thank you and i am looking forward to your new videos.
Here in Canada, if you asked me if i carried a knife 10 years ago I would have laughed at you. Now i never leave the house without a knife, sure its in my purse cause they really dont make good pockets on womens clothes, so in the purse it goes. Unfortunately thats considered a concealed weapon in Canada. So....hopefully I never need it. Thank you for sharing your load out! ♥️🇨🇦♥️
Don't stop carrying it, laws be damned when your life is at risk. But consider adding to it, perhaps mace/pepper spray/taser/ etc. Whatever you can afford and feel comfortable using without hurting yourself instead.
@@johnturtle6649 Thank you! I've looked for pepper spray, but that's illegal in Canada so are tasers unfortunately. You can buy a big can of bear mace, but you practically need a holster to carry that....aka won't fit in a purse, unlike those little pepper spray they sell in the States. I'm starting to think moving to the states is a good plan, cause they don't want you being prepared/ self sufficient in Canada!!
All the same in UK..banned😕
@@TheRogey1 I'm sorry you guys had to lose your freedoms first.
They make pepper spray that looks like a pen. Also a tactical pen or kubaton are great for self defense. As far as the knife, if you clip it to waist of your pants, on the inside, and wear a belt over the clip it practically disappears only to be found if you are frisked.
I appreciate your channel. Why did you not have any means to start a fire if you get caught out in the cold or woods or something and a blanket or means to stay warm and dry??? Just curious.....maybe a tarp even to make a tent or shelter out of and some rope to lash things if needed....just curious?
Love watching your awarding ❤❤
Very nice pack; I like that Victorinox knife.
In the U.S. we would also add a Glock 9mm pistol. Wish you could get one also.
Sorry to hear that. UA-cam has a lot of gun videos from here in the U.S. We love our Rights.
@@Neshek023depends on the country. In Austria you can legally owm handguns in your home
Hello Lilly. I am with you about the knife but the law in the EU and of course in Austria is very strict about knives. If the police stops you for a check will be in trouble. Even if you proctect yourself from a bad guy by stabing him you will end up in jail. In my country even a small knife from a nail clipper, especially if it has a locking mechanism it is considered illigal.
can i suggest a metal watch with a metal bracelet for (limited) self defence?
oso, i think the whistle should be in a sealed plastic pouch for hygiene purposes.
in all, its a very good set-up. i love the foldable metal ✂, a classic.
Tatonka makes great pouches, so does Blackhawk.👍
unfortunately, Tasmanian Tiger packs are not available in my country.
I like the small metal canteen.
I have a hard time finding this usb radio stick and the mini ratchet. Somehow I can't find for the live of me the correct search terms to find this on Google, eBay or Amazon. I'd be really curious about where to buy these
I have always with me a compass, knife and torch
What? No Bazooka gun?
Thanks Lilly, very interesting.
Thank you for sharing these amazing videos.
Love that knife. !!
Does anyone know for sure if the Ikea Duktig children's cooking set is safe to use as a campfire cook kit. It is advertised as a toy and described as stainless steel. Seen a few videos where the person said it was for camping but no one has shown the pan used in an actual fire.
I'm gonna make my own carry Farraday like you. Great idea.
My sister loves green too 👾💚
Love your Videos Lily. I've been subscribed to your Chanel with my personal account for quite some years. I just opened my own Chanel and posted my first outdoor adventure video. Looking forward to get more into survival and learning way more from your Videos. Thank you and keep it up.
Hi lily, the pocket clip you install is made by leatherman?
