I'd put a few jig lures in the fishing kit. Here in the Midwest, finding bugs or worms in the winter will be nearly impossible.
I feel u bro, I feel u
I went with some Berkley Powerbait in a straw with the ends sealed.
@@donalddicorcia2433 Clever idea!
I got a jar of salmonetts in my fishing kit , figure they will at least catch a cat fish or something
@@donalddicorcia2433straws work good for lots of small items, sugar, salt, magnesium,
RIP Leatherman Squirt. Hopefully Leatherman won't completely leave the small keychain sized multitool category. Looks like they are well on their way out with the removal of the squirt.
I'm still wanting a Juice comeback 😩!
Their designs seem to come and go in phases. It’s only a matter of time before they release some other design that fills that size category well. In the meanwhile you can get excellent deals on the secondary market.
I’m hoping they bring back the Core model.
@@RangerSurvivalandFieldCraft I wouldnt mind seeing them come back with a Leap replacement. Theres not that much competition at that size. Biggest hitter at the medium/small size is the Sog PowerPint.
True! Gerber Dime is now the $20 option. Would much rather have a Leatherman, but I don’t feel like spending $170 on a used item on eBay.
One suggestion might be to add a cloth to be able to dump the items out onto as well as to quickly pick up the items dumped out to be put back into the pouch. Plus the cloth might have many more uses as well.
Well it's always a good idea to have a bandana where to get some cotton cloth and cut it and make your own
Yes
A bandana is a must have and
for every day pocket carry
My dad had taught me that a man should always carry a handkerchief. I have learned in life it is wise to carry 2 of them. @@MasterK9Trainer
The trusty cravat bandage or a shemagh would fit well.
@@Subdood04 Many uses for just a plain piece of cloth. Seems like it should be in everybody's EDC as well as in every survival kit.
You can purchase small ziplock baggies of around 4x2" size from craft shops and the like. I find them extremely useful for organising small items in soft kits. Saves a lot of faffing around.
I use ziplock snack bags the tall 2 cup kind for storing a bic lighter, magnesium bar and some storm proof matches. Drink additives like instant coffee with sugar pre mixed for an energy boost, green tea, Yerba mate etc. I then put two bags, a bandana to stop the rattling and rubber bands around the edge to get it water tight in a Levi metal tin I got when I bout a wallet at years ago you could probably duct tape the edges too forfurther waterproofing and extra firestarter.
Fully wrap the ziploc bag in gaffer /duct tape (reinforce all three sealed edges and both sides), leaving two tabs on the ‘zipper’ side for easier opening.
I reuse trail mix zipper bags. They are much thicker than regular zipper bags. They can be resized using a plastic bag food sealer.
@@andrewallason4530 : You're wise to recommend gaffer tape for all those situations where you plan to stick and unstick a bunch of times. Duct tape is actually TOO sticky for such situations.
I had thought there was a video with a freezer bag wrapped with duct tape and
sorta similar contents, but I
still enjoyed this one and all
of them
Thanks for the video
Old 2 75 Ranger here.
In a previous video you said it's easier to take shelter than make shelter. I'd rephrase it. Easier to take than make. If SHTF, cities will cannibalize themselves and survivors will turn outward in search of essentials. Those who've bunkered in place, barricaded and pooled supplies with neighbors for protection will become magnets for armies of the needy. So stealth is paramount. That in mind, and my age and physical limits and travelling solo, and knowing weight burns calories, and hinders speed and agility; I'll make the following observations ...
Never used a flashlight. Don't wanna signal anyone and batteries add weight and die. Nothing good happens in the dark so by early evening I'm bedded down with a Dakota fire hole if warmth is needed otherwise it's lights out. A hollow metal walking stick across the flames, one end into my shelter, gives heat enough even in winter. I hunt, fish or trap early, eat early, and never bed where I've eaten. Any movement is done carrying all my minimal gear since base camps are vulnerable. I reject the "two is one and one is none" philosophy. Overthinking results in a 50 pound ruck. One great blade and one woodsaw (blade only), a pistol belt carrying essentials and a single strapped bed/shelter roll got me through 6 months in the Rocky mountains during much needed reflection time following my Army enlistment.
If you had a store then we could buy a decent military grade wire saw and mini compass.
And I thought I had learned everything I would ever need in SERE school, but I keep learning new stuff from you! TY!
Thank You Andrew for showing me how to survive. I have tried everything that you have taught me over the year and it all works. You my friend are the Real Deal .
2:31 ... if we have to get out of the area real quickly, we can, we can just Move Out! HELL YEAH!!!
Oh wait... I'm not running from the cops and I'm not in combat...
You got me really excited though man! :)
This is the pouch I have been looking for but never knew it. thanks
Old habits are often difficult to change. This video caused me to think back on the many hours spent wrapping, taping, and tightly packing kit contents for noise cancellation inside a metal tin. This old dog learned a new trick again today. Thank you for the informative post.
Again, you prove the point that you can make and carry a kit in a small pouch and if we carry a pocket knife and a couple of other items in our pockets, or a belt sheath, we can be pretty well prepared.
Throw a rain jacket, a layer, your lunch (and a few snacks) and a stainless-steel single wall water bottle in a small day pack, and you're good to go.
Felix the Cat would love a tactical magic bag like that, and I would too. I didn't know you could strike flint with a hacksaw blade to get a spark thanks again for the good tips and tricks sir.
Great video Andrew keep'em coming bud. Wishing you and yours the best. Stay safe and be well brother. 👊😎🤙🍻🇺🇸
That's an Xlnt little kit Andrew.I would add a sealed piece of straw containing some Zeke's cheese bait & a couple of #14 treble hooks.I would also add some MP-1 tabs for water purification,Chlorine Dioxide kills cryptyo,Iodine doesn't.& though Iodine can be used antiseptically,water treated with it,Tastes like....The end of the frikin'world,lol! & 2 more whirly bags for various stage's of water treatment,that would keep the kit lightweight still & not add too much bulk either.Thanx for taking the time to do this Andrew,It's much appreciated! Cheers!!
Always interesting videos! I’d replace that small folder with a Swiss Army Knife.
Hiker or Farmer would be a good one for the wood saw. I used to carry the Hiker or Farmer together with the Squirt to have the full complement of tools, the SAK providing the wood saw which the Squirt lacks. However I've stopped doing that since the scissors on the Squirt broke - and even before there was so much blade play they were pretty ineffective. Now I sometimes carry Farmer X with Knipex Cobra XS, sometimes Swisschamp.
That's a thought, but the advantages to that folder are the blade is twice as thick, it locks, the scales are very grippy in cold/wet conditions, and it weighs less than an ounce. It's not the perfect tool, but it's a lot of utility blade in a very small package.
@@memathews That's true and tbh I'd probably go with the folder, SAK, and LM Squirt on top. As it is I always have some knife and/or multitool in my pockets. Whatever is in a kit is backup.
The tape sachets are genius.
Great videos , I’ve been doing a lot off your videos here in the hill of Kentucky , keep on keeping on my friend , have a great day and stay safe !
I really like this concept, an the bag, not for military purposes, but for hunting, hmmmm, great food for thought here. Thx for the vid Andy
That's a cool kit and a great idea for carrying. Another pouch is just what I need.
Wow: this kit is so stealthy that until now it . . . snuck by me!
But I do like that little trick with packing the cotton-balls into a piece of straw (which might be worth demonstrating by itself in a UA-cam short). That one is compact enough that I might even be able to put it inside my match safe, as well as my survival tin.
Yes I do that with both of my kits.
@@168Diplomat I’ve made three of them, myself, since watching this video.
@@TheSaneHatter cool I believe that they will do you well.
Excellent as per the uszh.
Great video. I never leave home without a survival kit. Have a nice day!!! ✌️❤️😎
Thank you, great Video 👍
greetings from Germany
Very cool. I like the pouch.
Great alternative 👍
Another great and informative video. Thank you Andrew
I forgot about team Leatherman and Gerber. I'm on team "the best for a reasonable price."
Very interesting pouch. Makes total sense when displayed the way you did. Water proof and quiet👍👍
As an expedient an MRE bag filled with the gear and sealed with tape works great. Plus carry an empty MRE bag for water, tinder etc.
Yep! When I was a lowly young soldier I used the MRE bag or a ziplock wrapped with tape as a small kit bag!
Nice kit! Why not put in some small jig lures for fishing?
Try taking a very bright L.E.D. flashlight, it will heat and activate charcloth, at least mine did, it's over 1000 lumens, only took a few seconds to light it. Just a tip to try.
Thank you sir your always dropping good Ideas to wee the people like always an GOD Bless Rangers lead the way
Good kit Andrew., thanks for sharing, God bless brother !
Nice, Thanks Major
Magpul makes some good products. When you mentioned organization I thought "you can put a survival tin inside the pouch and still have room", then you showed your fire tin. So, no issues there. For just tad more room I would think Magpul would put a gusset in the pouch making it expandable. Maybe that would compromise the water tight integrity of the pouch. A nice piece of gear that deserves some consideration. 👍
Thx as always Col. Another interesting kit that covers all the bases.
Good stuff!
Thanks for the informative video …
Another great video!
Outstanding AF
Great video
Your channel is quickly becoming one of my favorites.
Interesting kit outstanding job sir. Thanks
Very cool video! Thanks Andrew!
Continually amazed at the knowledge and very interesting subjects you present every week. Your ability to teach in a simple and concise way sets you way above the rest. Thanks again!
Another amazing video. Thank you very much.
Excellent video!!!! Thank you.
That's awesome I carry a (Gerber Dime) it's just Gerber's mini spring assisted pliers with wire cutter, tweezers, scissors, mini file, metal and grooming on other side, bottle opener, a box opening knife and a normal straight edge knife blade,flat head. It also has a locking feature outside opening tools you can't open the flyers if the tools are deployed on the outside. I Love it.
I have a Gerber mini tool with the Bear Grylls signature. Got it at a Ross's for ten bucks one time. Wish I had bought at least one more. No scissors, but still a great little survival kit tool. T Y Gerber & Bear Grylls!. Indispensable in the Sonora desert because of the pliers and tweezers for pulling cactus spines. And bring your deadeye Florence Nightingale, too!
An excellent video as always thankyou for your advice
Great video! Always informative! Keep 'em coming dude!
Thanks, Andrew, I like this type of kit, not in a hard case.
Gotta get me one of those kits. Thank you for sharing your skills!
I'm glad you showed the Leatherman squirt... I had a gerber dime.. went to squeeze a soft lead split shot on my fishing line in the jaw of the Gerber dime snapped off! Gerber dime really a piece of junk... I have since purchased a Leatherman squirt which I love ❤️
Simple but practical thank you very much Andrew
Noise was the biggest thing for survival kits for me in tins, especially in your hunting gear, I always put cloth or cotton in my metal tin kits, with my survival items to keep stuff from moving and making noise.
Great utility kit .Thanks for some new ideas on kit options. I like those pouches , I'm going to check them out.
I really enjoyed your fire kit,great idea storing cotton balls sealed in straws.👍☘️😎
good stuff thx
Great video!
Great idea, especially the tape sachet items.
FANTASTIC micro kit !!
Excellent video Andrew. As always you spark great ideas sir.
Thanks Andrew. Always interesting and informative Sir.
Thank you
Getting caught up on my YT, thanks Andrew, for another excellent video. Best wishes to you and yours AATW!
I have replaced my thread in my Sewing kit an my fishing line with upholstery thread. On average, it is 25 pound test. And you, you get a 150 yd on a small spool. Hello from Detroit Michigan brother thank you for sharing your knowledge and expertise and for taking us on your adventure through the woods
Excellant video as always!!
Great looking pouch
That is an outstanding lightweight kit! It is very similar to kits I carry. Keep up the great work!
Nice video. I love minimalist kits
Awesome
I have a huge smile hearing you explaining (almost apologetically) why you have a soft-sider. My softsided kit has an altoids tin in it for charring punk wood, etc.
Thx sir... I hope younger folks try and try and try these items & skills. They're tomorrow's teachers
Good looking small kit!
Great job Andrew you are amazing love everything you do I always learn something new from you keep up the great work
Excellent video
I made my copy of the Vietnam era marine corps kit and made artic bags to store it in. One side in each bag, each bag to its own cargo pocket.
I like this type of kit better than a tin, being on the river a lot and in wet environments I’ve always been big on using waterproof/dry bags, thanks Andrew for another excellent video
I like the stealth dimension of your extensive & well-equipped ki. It is innovatibe & well-explained. I had a metal cup on my belt one day while entereing the deer woods, but I sounded like a Bell-Cow & frightened every 4-legged creature in the woods. Thank you, & God bless you.
Perfect for stashing in a large cargo pocket !!!
Great ideas with this soft pouch Major Andrew 👍🇺🇸
Excellent idea! I would trade the razor knife for a small knife sharpener, unless it's for interrogation, then keep it,
Thanks for the video
Awesome survival kit, extremely well thought out.
Great kit! 🤘🤘
Maxpedition makes excellent pocket pouches of various sizes. The 800d is only water resistant coated, but it's pretty effective and I've have no issues with water getting inside in the afternoon Florida storms.
Sir, T Y again, Skipper! Watching this video reminded me to order a triangular frame bag for my mountain bike today. The waterproof pouch put in the bike frame bag will be insurance that the kit and my permits stay dry in wet weather. The Leatherman Squirt is a terrific light tool. The scissors put it over the top. You can include a camo kerchief or a thin, compact, folded plastic sheet in the kit to spread and pour the kit contents on for selection of items, or to do a quick demonstration to appropriate authorities like Game and Fish, or maybe a stern First Shirt. "Yes, First Sergeant, no verboten stuff here, as you can see." I rarely fill up my fatigue or cargo pants pockets, but the option is very important at times. .
I use this one in my ballistic commuter bag to hold urban get home kit. Got tired of metal clanging on metal and this works out great and minimizes weight.
Want to thank you for your service to the great USA for most , great videos my friend , a lot don’t catch on to a lot of your jokes but I do lol , be safe and look forward to all your videos , from the hills of Kentucky have a great day and time doing what your doing !
Another great video Andrew, thanks for the content. Your content is the sort of thing that we watch with interest, and one day might save a life. Even if we just remembered two things.
Good brief, thanks.
I'd like to see you survive on different altoid kits you put together.. I loved the one you did
7:52 nice idea
I like the pocket fishing kit in tape.
I have one of the Magpul pouches, they are absolutely great!
A great minimalist kit, similar to ours but yours is better. Cheers digger for sharing.
04:35 i always keep a couple of them white cylinder looking apparatuses and a bic out in the field too! 🔥💨 😊 thank you for this week's episode
Nice work dude 😄😄
Great subject andrew i use those milwaukee zip tool bags i keep all my fishing stuff knives im going to buy a few of those waterproof ones i have one of those phone dry plastic boxes for my tinder 👍
