Great kit, Lilly. I carry almost the same things, but added a small tube of antibacterial ointment, a few tablets of KI, and a small magnifying lense for making fire in sunny conditions. The cotton balls are soaked in petroleum jelly and stored in a small medicine bottle. My wife and I love your videos and input. Longtime fans. Stay safe out there!
We need to go armadillo huntin some night, ever eat armadillo? Very good especially when baked. My dog enjoys it with me
What is KI plz?
@cecemeadows8117 kerosene? We call it K1 I don't know why?
@@RealJasmineLoveI am pretty sure he is talking about potassium iodide tablets (KI)
Bag Balm has petroleum jelly plus sulfur. Used on cows for cuts, etc.If you are not allergic to sulfur, then can use one the cotton balls for cuts or fire.
Hey Lilly - I agree you've put together a really great kit. The only thing that I would recommend (and which doesn't take up much space) is to add a few pain-killer pills, like aspirin, acetaminophen, naproxen sodium, and ibuprofen. These can help you sleep if you are injured or have sore muscles, and help keep you going to get to help or safety. They can be put into the straws and sealed up, like you have already done for your kit. Also consider adding some anti-diarrheal tablets and something with bismuth for stomach problems. Again, these can be bought in very small sizes and should be changed out when you check your battery for your flashlight.
You know what thats not a bad suggestion I would even think now to add a Benedryll or Alavert if they have it in her country some countries don't have these things.
But if you got into some bad stuff or stung by a bee hell even snake bit something for allergic reaction would be worth its weight in gold. Only issue is that using benedryll causes drowsiness and that wouldn't be good to have but could certainly help you sleep. Thats the only thing about adding things in cut straws and unmarked containers if youre not in the wild a the police find it in your kit they could say its something else or think it is and in some countries you could end up in legal trouble.
Everything I mentioned can be bought over-the-counter (i.e., without doctor's prescription) at any apothecary and even petrol stations in the US. As you suggest, would be a good idea to identify the contents of the straws so you'll know what to reach for if you have problems and the authorities can likewise easily check if there are any questions. Given the wide availability of dangerous drugs like fentanyl, it would probably not be a good use of their time rummaging through your bug-out bag, but these days who knows ??
I'll add too. Thanks for the valuable suggestion🎉

"A lot of people will stop trusting compasses and other weird stuff."
Compasses proceed to give conflicting directions for several minutes.
6:00
I like to use different straw colors for different contents (yellow is sunscreen, red is triple antibiotic ointment, green is deet, etc.). Also, if you're crafty, you can use them to make neon slipping or spinning lures for fishing after you open one.
finally someone talking about the compasses lol
I came here to suggest maybe two more compasses were needed, then to throw one of the old ones out 😂
Yeah, I noticed the Compasses.
The compasses are attracted to the metal box. You know, compasses are basically magnets.
@@CsZsolt Well, one of them is, anyway.
Love this. My suggestion would be instead of using a metal tin, I have mine inside an old camping pot (or you could use a Stanley pot). No need to makeshift handles. Ready for cooking and carrying! Making my next one inside a Kelly kettle.
I've seen some videos in the US that use cans of tunafish in oil. You eat the tuna and use the can and the oil for a heat source or a way to heat up or cook stuff.
The oil is full of calories.
Many moons ago, when getting to a doctor’s was not an option, my late mother would gather cobwebs from anywhere to stop bleeding. Just FYI, the Yarrow plant (Achillea millefolium), is a well known styptic along with Goldenrod (Solidago) and Horsetail (Equisetum arvense). Perhaps, a small amount could be gathered (best done before the sun rises) dried and stored. Go well 🙏🏼
Something I've realised with this video as a man: I'd rather have tampons or pads than fishing gear.
I do a lot of outdoors stuff and the last time I fished was over 15 years ago. The last time a female friend had a period was within the last couple of weeks.
I think I know what would be more useful immediately.
It's also good to stop bleeding in case of emergency. I've added 3 pads to my kit.
I feel like carrying a menstrual cup is more useful in these situations. I'm a woman and I hate cups but I think it's better for real survival situations like when you can't just go to home when you want to, that way she won't need multiple stuff
I’m amazed you were able to fit all of that in such a small container. Excellent work!
No doubt. And the container is an item!
The fishing line spool. You either need to trim down the spool so it takes up less space or put something else on it (like bank line) to effectivly use the space.
A very good kit. One can see that your emphasis is on fire. The only thing I'm missing is a few sewing needles or sewing kit. For repair or alteration of clothing and magnetised as a third compass possibly. Keep the videos coming, I enjoy them. Gruß
Lilly, thank you so much for all your videos! I appreciate the reports on conditions in Europe & always learn something from your how to videos. This is an awesome kit you are sharing. Blessings from NW Florida!
Anyone else noticed the compasses. lily either one or both of them are broken that or you have a powerful magnet nearby
There is a metal tin right next to them!!
Lily always seems to get it right. Out of all the survival channels out there, this is one of about 3 that I actually respect and trust.
What are the other two channels, if I may ask?
which are the other two? uwu
Show me a case, where a human being's life was saved, because he/she, watched a UA-cam video, of a survival kit.that he/she, used and it was the reason that life was saved... To make it easy for you, there are ZERO such cases. UA-cam videos, are all about matketing, advertisments, and how to make money and fame fast, by uploading videos/ (In most cases, the UA-camrs,,aren't even experts, on what they claim they are..)
PS that has nothing to do, with Lilly, or this video. I'm talking in general and I only mentioned, FACTS.
Lilly that is a great kit! I remember when I was in the 5th grade one of our assignments was to make a survival kit that fit in a metal band aid box. Its amazing how much stuff you can put in one of those. I would keep it in my jacket pocket for a couple of years until I moved out of the mountain community I lived in during my youth. So a couple of notes on your kit, another use for a tampon is also to plug a wound, I had friend do that exact thing with a friend when one of them got a serious puncture wound, he put three or four into the wound and wrapped with a bandage until they were able to get medical help, it did a great job of slowing down the bleeding. the other thing, is to put a bullion cube or two into your kit, you boil water and add the bullion to the water to make soup per say. so it's salt with some extra flavor. Always enjoy your content, and look forward to your videos. Stay SAFE out there and keep us updated on the situation Europe, God bless!
How did your friend get that wound? Sounds awful.
Your friend had a great outcome however, I HIGHLY RECOMMEND " AGAINST" USING TAMPONS TO STOP BLEEDING. Tampons absorb blood they do not STOP THE BLEED.
Youre much more better off using Quickclot, gauze and Pressure. A hemostatic dressing is 100x better than resorting to a Tampon. Heres why, again they absorb blood BUT NOT MUCH OF IT. 9ML... with 4 square inches of surface area. An arterial bleed can bleed 500- 1500ML... So in seconds your tampon method is completely full of blood and useless. The tampon advice is still being passed around as a method but is an ill fated one based on Myth and like your story almost every story out there is Someone who knows someone. Do not trust your life or anyone elses to a tampon ever. Hemostatic wound dressing has a surface area of over 400 Square inches they are impregnated with hemostatic agents and are z-folded and compressed so they will not only stop the bleeding but help with clotting. A tampon in a serious bleeding situation used with that advice could result in death.
Stop the circulating of that Tampon as a first aid option so that others do not ever trust their life to it. Whatever happened with your friend does not defeat the fact that they don't hold much blood and wont stop the bleeding. Never use them for a gunshot wound its a myth. USE REAL DRESSINGS designed for the purpose.
@@ArmaGuyz Quickclot is very dangerous!
It's truly amazing how much you put into such a small container. I love your videos, and opinions, sorry to hear some of the platforms don't agree. If you take away a person's right to have an opinion, what do you leave them. Stay strong keep up the great work you're doing.
Lilly, I've learned so much from you over the years. Bought a couple of your knives too! Great quality. Nice kit.
Any survival kit, go bag must be customized to...
1. What may happen.
2. The environment your in.
3. Your immediate needs.
This is why I love your channel! Never even occurred to me that a very stressful situation like that would affect hormones and menstrual cycles... Won't see any guys covering that lol. Thanks Lilly!
Yes and I was surprised by this myself since it happened to me on Naked and Afraid
Great little kit, Lilly. I'd keep the tiny clove oil bottle (for toothache) and the tiny tea tree oil bottle (antibacterial/disinfectant) in there, too. And more pins/needles (for digging out splinters etc).
Add Bog myrtle oil for repelling biting midges, horseflies and mosquitoes!
Awesome.
Dyneema cordage worth considering for space saving. Recommend storing battery(s) separate from light. Honey serves as both first aid and food. Really like the tin, and your idea for sealing with electrical tape.
And the idea of putting more tape in kit, and bag in kit to carry it all... chef's kiss.
I never leave batteries in the flashlight. They tend to corroded the terminals and destroy the flashlight.I keep them separate
Not lithium!
100% right, I lost 5 flashlights because of the battery corrosion
That's not true with good batteries like Energizer. If you use the flashilight, even once in while ,there is no reason to remove the batteries. You remove them, only for VERY long term storage,where the flashlight, isn't going to be used for a year for example..
What batteries did you use? Where any of these Energizer rechargables, or Alkaline? If not ,then use Energizer batteries next time. They not only last longer, but they also never leak.@@alsalieby1981
@@greekveteran2715definitely 👍
Dental floss is surprisingly good Cordage. It's a great thing to put in your kit.
The fishing Wire should be rolled around the container with hooks. For saving room.
Fishing line doesn't take up much room at all. You wouldn't want to do that, because then you would have to pick up the kit in other to unreel it and having it around the container leaves the line open to damage BUT Paracord most certain could be wrapped around the inside of the kit. The Braided line shes got there is really good line too. Fishing line tangles so easily though and if you have to cut it to untangle it you could lose a great deal of valuable length needed.
The spool for the fishing line (~2:10) wastes volume (in the core, and outside of the wound line itself). It makes sense to me to have the spooled fishing line stored with -- even joined to -- the fishing kit, the body of which can be used as a handle/pull for the line in use.
The safety pin might better be replaced with a kilt pin -- extra heavy duty, to the point of lethality.
The paracord bracelet would probably best be used (and stored) as the handle for the whole kit, the lid of which should probably be metal rather than plastic. Having the cord on the outside makes it more accessible -- in fact, immediately accessible. Are there metal 'fastex' clips available which could, once riveted to the outside of the can, allow the bracelet to be clipped onto the can?
The sealed straws containing fire-starting material puts me in mind of the possibility of creating re-sealable bags, of arbitrary dimensions, from store-bought re-sealable (zipper) food bags using a Decosonic (or similar) resealer. I'll have to try this...
Lilly, you have created a well-thought-out kit that anyone may build. I especially appreciate that one component of the kit is a metal container that could be used to pasteurize questionable water. We will certainly try out your insect-repellent recipe. Where we live in the tropics there is a risk of mosquito-borne diseases such as malaria and dengue fever.
I don’t live in the tropics, but there are a ton of mosquitoes here in the summer… Deet seems to be the only thing that truly cuts it. I’ve tried essential oils, smell nicer, but doesn’t seem to work all that well or all that long.
Really nice kit! Gonna use a few of your ideas. That particular Victorinox knife is really nice, have always wanted that one. Ordered 😄 Thanks Lilly
When using lighters i prefer the see through casing, because bic lighters fuel have a habit of evaporating. So you will always know when to change them out. Never forget once the bic is out, it still contains the flint spark, so remove the safety grill on it and it a spark lite shooter.
Always invest in wax covered cotton calls, super cheap to make and can vastly improve your chance to keep a fire going. They act like mini candles that can last 3min up to 10min depending on how well you coated them.
Dental floss has a very decent tensile strength. I use it to sow with as well floss and can aid in fishing.
Your kit reminds me of the SAS tin kit. You did a great job.
Non lube condoms make great water bladders. Once you get past the thought of what they are.
Keep a small magnet, for the simple purpose of magnetism, to make your sowing needle into a make shift compass, if you lose you main compass, but avoid having contact with the compass, so do have it in the tin, but maybe on your belt knife.
Reallybigmonkey made the perfect point in his video. Have a trauma kit and then have a seperate boo boo kit. So when you need to close a wound its all together.
I keep a water straw and a 1 litre plastic soda bottle and use the soda bottle to store water. An just use the straw to filter from the bottle.
On the cordage deal, just wrap it around the tin. If you cant fit it in the tin then use the outside. Tape and rope.
Black walnut has a great anti pesticide properties. Something to think about.
Black walnut is generally for internal parasites. Is that what you mean?
I saw a q & a with Les Stroud a long time ago. He was asked about carrying a lighter, and answered - "If you go out without a Bic lighter, you're an idiot."
I would suggest the following
- Instead of electrical tape, use gorilla tape. It's very sticky and can be used over and over. Plus can be used to patch holes.
-might want to consider a diva cup instead of the single tampon
- eye glass repair kit. They're very small and very important if you need it.
- tweezers yes - but you should have nail clippers as well - It is awful to have a hang nail in the woods
- don't forget you can use the tin itself to boil water.
I'd toss a skin glue pen in there too. Theyre tiny, cheap, light, and help a ton with closing wounds.
This is an excellent survival kit. Even an experienced outdoorsman and hunter like myself - and I live in a tropical environment - actually picked up a few pointers [ things to add to my own kit] when bugging out. Thank you for posting!
I am beyond impressed you were able to fit that many things in that small box. Well done.
A nice sized kit.
The locking blade may be against local laws. My SAK Hunter has, in addition, scissors for nail care and tweezers.
If your EDC is a folding knife, put a pliers multitool in the emergency kit, esp for dealing with wire and fish hooks.
Thin cordage for lanyards for all essential bits.
Paracetamol, immodium, moleskin, antiseptic. Beware of opiate painkillers when travelling abroad.
Potassium Permanganate.
The fishing line reel is a poor use of space. Fishing kit is for longer term food gathering.
I would add a few bouillon soup cubes.
9:10 Hi Lilly,
At this point you forgot to mention which model Victorinox you were demonstrating, in case people would like to buy that specific one. Personally, I am partial to the Hercules model.
One idea you might consider for excellent tinder: cotton make-up remover pads are very useful, cheap and readily available. Just add a small quantity of hand sanitizer gel and rub it in. A single spark from any source will ignite it for a nice hot flame that will last quite a while, to ignite whatever kindling you might have found. 10 such pads in a Zip-loc bag (to keep them dry) take up very little space and weigh almost nothing. Several of these bags distributed in your other kit will give you many effortless fires! Good one on the tea light - a great flame extender for harsh conditions, and they slip in easily under a kindling bundle.
Nice video and some interesting ideas. Good ideas for the ladies (which we men tend to forget about! Sorry about that.).
Cheers!
"an older model". I used to have one. The new model's main blade opens with a thumb yet as Lilly mentions it unlocks with a lateral spring
I also have a Victorinox Hercules. Unfortunately, they stopped making them.
@@CsZsolt I'm devastated to hear that! The Hercules is the perfect package, in my opinion!
Been Prepping for a while now, so obviously my bug out bag, and my get home bag that lives in the car are a lot more extensive, but think this kit is an amazing start for new people in the survival world, and is a great thing for caching I feel. In one tiny box you have covered all most everything you might need other than shelter, but with the items in this tiny box, you can overcome this anyway.
Thank you Lilly, this is small but mighty.
Add a small sewing kit to it. Being able to repurpose any fabric or clothes is very useful, plus being able to sew a open wound can be a life saver.
Wow, Lilly you are a amazing. And such a wonderful person. Thank you so much for caring about the people. You are far and few between. God bless you and your family. And please stay Strong. Thank you for everything you do for the people.
ive used that straw method to store petroleum jelly soaked cotton balls. just light the whole thing with a lighter and guranteed 5 minutes of flame to start your fire. ive also used the straw for salt and pepper. works great!
think about tying a turkshead knot around the can, you could probably get 20ft of paracord or bankline around it.
I prefer weaker flashlights, that lasts at least 6 hours. Because it provides you light through whole night (if you need to walk or do something). Stronger flashlights that lasts only 2-3 hours are impractical. In tough survival situations it is recommended to walk through night and sleep during day. Because nights are very cold.
I agree but just fyi-- olights have 3 beam choices from dim to bright
Dryer lint is fantastic for starting fires and you can flatten it out on the bottom of your container and it will fit. A little goes a long way so be careful. I don’t know if you have WalMart stores in Austria but they sell waterproof/wind proof matches in the hunting and camping section. A small magnifying glass is a good way to start fire as well.
Styptic powder is used to stop bleeding and I agree with the recommendation of some kind of antibiotic or silver ointment. You could also get a basic belt for yourself to carry the knife or a backup knife in a sheath, and I would recommend bungee cords(you can tie them around you to carry them, but obviously not too tight).
The only thing I really recommend would be to get a canteen for water because without water, you won’t do well. The canteen doesn’t have to be huge, and you can take one of those bungee cords and use that to carry it as if you were carrying a crossbody bag. A bandanna can also be used to filter water and they even sell bandannas that have a bunch of different “survival guides” printed right onto them. You could carry it by wearing it, of course.
The essential oils are indeed great for insect repellent but they are also very strong smelling, so I’m not sure if I would personally bring them if you’re trying to remain hidden. They can be smelled from a pretty good distance from where you are. Something for all to consider.
Lastly, you don’t want to be too clean and you might end up in a situation where you are going to want to spread the surrounding dirt, mud, plants and whatever else over you so you will blend in with your surroundings better.
Thanks for the great video, lilly. If you want more cordage and less bulk, you could use #36 tarred bank line. It has roughly the same strength as 550 and will last much longer.
Lily, thank you for all your wonderful videos over the years. Will this type of can withstand the heat required to boil water several times? That was my only concern. I also like to always carry paper towel for it's robustness, and I spary any repellent on the towel and use that to apply to my skin, face and clothing. It also makes the mixture last longer, and the paper can be moistened and used a couple times.I have watched you since you first started many years ago. You are one of my favorites:) Best of luck to you and always remember, fire, water, shelter food. With those four things any human being can survive, thrive and find happiness and contentment:)
you can use a camping cooking pot.
I would add a pre-threaded needle sealed in a straw and a stick of lip balm with SPF 15 so it can double as sunscreen, many other survival uses for lip balm.
Yep most people don't have their bugout bags on them or in their car, it tends to be in their house which will be inconvenient if you are out the house and an emergency happens like a car breaking down in the snow with little to no battery life left in your phone. Having one of these mini kits in your car or even in a rucksack (if a person cant an advanced full edc) could save them!
Yup That survival kit. She made is small enough so that it would fit into my side pack. Which I carry with me at all Times in the event of an emergency situation.
Band-aid's have rarely worked for me.
I use a paper towel over the cut, wrapped with either electrical tape or duct tape.
I like the kit. It is fun watching experts develop safety gear.
I just love your videos you could do a daily news update
I think you are one of the the few that I enjoy to listen to because you have a great opinions and viewpoint
Thanks 🙏 also I’m German just live to hear you 😊
I would like to give you some suggestions to improve your kit.
1. Get three more safety pins, for a total of four. They can be used to create anchor points for your space blanket. Or, take three, open the pins, use some wire to create a treble hook.
2. Add the pins and some fishing tackle to the screw top cylinder. There seems to have room. Couple of flies and a jig or micro spin bait.
3. If you insist on carrying the full size tweezers, then pull the pair from the Swiss Army knife. There’s a company that makes a ferro rod to replace it. The same company also sells a compressed tinder that wraps around the corkscrew.
4. Add a couple more tampons. You will thank yourself later if you need them. Can also be used to plug deep punctures.
5. Forgive me if I missed it, but I didn’t see any paper or duct tape.
6. Transfer your fishing line to a smaller spool, or add more to fill the spool. A lot of wasted space.
7. I think that you might be able to cram a cheap plastic poncho in there, rubber band one to the kit. Instant shelter for rain.
Of course, these are just suggestions. Your kit is very well designed. You are very intelligent in your own safety and wellbeing.
I would also recommend that you put a package of burn cream to your first aid kit, as well as some pain relievers.
One addition I recommend is a plunger tube similar to a turkey baster or liquid medicine dispenser for babies/ toddlers….. not only is such a device handy for drawing up water from small crevices but it can act a a bellows for the emergency whistle for someone having respiratory issues
Add instant coffee.. sugar..more Safety pins
Your thaughts, very interesting, the most important aspect composing a kit. I thank Steve Canterbury for the defenition of the Every Day System: Things you carry allways with you. For me around the neck day an night. Micro Photon and a plastique tent cleaner. As a smoker allways a little and a big BIC. Fixed by dyneema fishing line my Victorinox mini an a tactical! Mini flashlight and my keys, so i dont have to mind them in my actual EDC. Thank you, greetings from Styria, Herbert
A good kit for a bike, boat etc. Would also be handy to keep in a hunting cabin. Maybe do a cabin kit, not survival persay, but something that can be hidden but will provide food for the weekend, hygene supplies, TP, and whatever else you'd like for a weekend if all the cabin had left after a theft was the bed and stove.
Does your Victornox have tweezers? So you could leave out the separate tweezers. If you wear the paracord bracelet, you'll have more room in the tin. Maybe add a couple of small sachets of sugar, or 2 sugar cubes, needle for sewing, two Oxo cubes, and 2 SEVEN OCEANS water rations. They are about 50ml and are in tiny plastic sachets. My bugout kits are like yours. You can use the tin to boil water, cook soup, or even make a small fire in.
Great kit, good idea to use a can as container instead of pouches. Not sure if i missed some painkillers or imodium
I have a similar kit I keep in the car incase we get stuck on the highway in a foot of snow. Thanks for your video!
I think survival kits here in America should be classified as interstate, highway type and camping type.
My reason is that I'm noticing winter storms shutting interstates down, causing motorists to be stranded for long periods of time.
This seems to be more common .
Therefore, what would we put in an "interstate" survival kit?
Cars are out of gas.
Longer lasting candles for heat. Etc...
Great videos, keep up the outstanding work!!
An empty chap stick container can fit a surprising amount of the good old cotton/vaseline mix. And for the size of the gummy bears, half a pack of 'Dextro Energy Tablets' or 'Glucotabs' (used by diabetics to treat hypos') would be better.
I keep a cotton ball stuffed in the cap of my chapstick. Torn in two, smeared with chapstick, its a good tinder for a couple fires.
Great little kit. The ranger 130mm with a gut hook. 25ft of Parapocalypse cord. A small vial of iodine. Duct tape and gauge and sail needle. Is all I'd add to it.
Great kit and really well thought out. My only suggestion would be to add either some tarred bank line or at least some nano cord. I'm not comfortable with only having the small amount of cordage the bracelet provides.
Lilly’s kit barely fit into the box she had - I’m pretty sure she couldn’t have fit any more in the kit.
Yeah. She did say that was the thing she would have liked more of. Maybe if the fishing twine was wrapped on a smaller spool, she could fit in another bracelet? Also, I love this kit, but maybe removing the tube that the fishhooks are in and just taping them to the bottom of the tin might save a bit more room. I would definitely add the anti diarrheal as this can be so debilitating in a short time.
Super glue and a length of tubing might be good additions.
Super glue for repair and wound sealing. Super glue was developed initially as a first aid battlefield wound repair. Of course, it is also useful to make repairs. Mix with ash to mend plastic.
Tubing to siphon/drain water or fuel.
These are items I rarely see if at all in anyone's kit.
Also, I am interested in adding a bearing into the scales of a knife to use for a bow drill fire starter.
I love your survival kit!!! I would add foil, a fresnel lens, and a bandana if they fit. I also have a mini solar/hand crank flashlight that I would add as a backup to the Olight just in case. With the foil I would make a bowl/cup, put snow in, then melt it with the fresnel lens. Then you would have another way have drinking water. Plus, foil is good for cooking, too.
Sehr gute Zusammenstellung. Eine Mullbinde, um einen Druckverband anlegen zu können, könnte noch helfen. Die Angelschnur um die Hakendose wickeln. Von big gibt es auch kleine Feuerzeuge, die für den Notfall ausreichen sind 💗 🍀 😘
Amazing contents in that small box! Thank you, Lily.
You always make me think and improve my preps
Thank you, that is great, myself I will add to the kit a solar charger, and a small gps, also a radio transmitter for sos.... maybe even I will stick on top of the box the small solar panel...
No period lasts 1 tampon, risks TSS. Better to have 3 reusable washable bamboo fibre pads and rotate their use with wearing, washing & drying them. ❤
I have that mini Olight flashlight. Love it! In fact, I bought several of them to keep in mini kits or hang on keychains. It's actually *brighter* than the next size up they claim has more lumens (and is also more expensive, so mad about that purchase).
I use my mini at work a lot (to look at box labels in low light areas). I attached it to one of those retractable string ID clips. I added a larger keyring at the end to attach the string snap to. I then attach/hang the round metal retractable part to the neck of my shirt or shirt pocket for immediate accessibility. Wearing a headlamp all day would not be comfortable, nor is needed to that degree, so the mini Olight works great.
Hi Lilly, always interesting to see how many items your can squeeze into a a small tin. I have to update my knife, its blade does not lock.
Yes, the whistle, very important, also I was thinking blow the whistle.... and you did. Excellent video of the multiple use essential items. Thanks. 🙂
Great kit, if you want additional items that might come in handy and you could squeeze it in, maybe put in a curved sewing needle and some natural sinew for sewing up skin and some waxed thread and or some dental floss. A small bottle of eye drops and some hard candy, or some orange marker tape cut in strips and a small nail.
I have something like this, in like a bathroom accessory bag, shoved into my backpack.
I have a lot of interesting things in there, like you have here and a little filet knife and some sharpening stones, mini fishing kit, fire kit, compass, mirror. Some wire, some floss and stuff in there.
That is a separate from the first aid bag, which is large I figure why not have a really good first aid kit ?, 2-3 pounds for each bag.
Between those two bags I feel so prepared for whatever happens. It's not about the tools, it's the skills to make do with what you have, like fishing and foraging. If you can actually catch fish, that's perfect for survival because it would be really hard to go hungry for long, you will run out of camp food eventually. I learned when I was a kid to catch bluegills and sunfish all day long, I can usually catch about 20 of em a day, some are actually decent size to eat.
All I need is a pond that has living fish inside, I can survive as long as I have line, some type of hunting weapon. I want to work on my boomerang toss, as a backup to fishing. Easier to make a boomerang over a bow, easy to throw a boomerang if you learn how, they are actually decent weapons and very easy to carry around. If you hit a rabbit with that, it dies.
I could always get a smaller first aid kit for smaller trips, but I have one would be good for even large groups, has a lot in there. I ordered that, was quite the order of like 87 things I bought a empty bag, filled it up with goodies, has everything you could want in a first aid kit, basically all I am missing is a chest seal, but has all other mortal situations covered.
There's more tools that might be useful in there, hemos and tweezers, forceps, scissors. I paid like 220$, but it's the best first aid kit I have seen so far. I have already used in emergencies like removing hooks, stitches. That was definitely the hardest part of my gear setup, putting this bag together took the most time. It's not a ton of money, compared to like a hammock and all accessories cost more than 200$ for a good one.
Hi Lilly! This is a really great kit! I live in South Florida where we get a lot of mosquitos, especially in wilderness areas, but everywhere during the spring and summer.....so I was REALLY GLAD to see your ingenious formula for bug repellent AND the small container too! Thanks so much for this video....stay warm this winter! Look forward to your future videos! All the Best!
You're AMAZING Lilly!!! Thanks for sharing this!!!
Awesome video 📹 Lilly! A great kit. Keep up the great work 👌
NOW take just that kit and go camp to test out the kit for 3 days
how about adding small strips of car or bicycle tyre inner tube material , this rubber will light easily and burn well regardless of whether its wet or dry , very useful for starting fires and wont take up much space in your kit box
Getting lost in the woods is easier than one might think.
It happened to me. Went into the woods with a lot on my mind. I mean, my mind was not thinking properly. I found my way back to my truck, but I was out there lost for a while.
2nd time, i was hiking down a mountain. Camp was on top, I went down.
Fog came in. Visibility 5 feet.
When i went back up I came out 180 degrees on the other side of camp.
Nice little kit. I would add a few more tampons in lieu of cotton/straw combo and maybe a moleskin and a couple of gauze pads to the med kit and maybe some needles.
I'd also have some activated charcoal pills. A sewing needle/thread. Antibiotic ointment/silver.
I like your kit Lilly what I would add to it is a Faber-Castell Double Hole Metal Pencil Sharpener --- put a stick in and turn for all the tinder you want. I like bright orange or yellow BIC lighters in case I drop it. I made a "kit" out of an MSR Stowaway pot 1.1 liter size. P.S. you may want to add a Fresnel lens and a small tube of triple antibiotic plus pain relief if you can. I also like those Tungsten Carbide garden tool sharpeners it's NOT the best to shapen a knife BUT it works and you can keep a sharp useable edge indefinitely with a little practice. AND 1 of the most important to me is a 🦟mosquito head net to keep the flying insects out of my ears nose eyes & mouth!
Great ideas!Thank you Lilly❤
Hey, Lilly! Finally some no-nonsense survival topic again! Thank you!
Sewing needle with a big eye and you can use the dental floss to repair clothes / bags.
Small tube of super glue - designed for sealing wounds originally - can be used on cuts that need to be held together to stop bleeding.
Some Brufin tablets for pain killing.
Satellite phone ............................:)
Wow you have everything in that kit. Love it
A kit on your person will always be there. If you carry a good survival kit in your backpack, you can also carry a compact kit in a cargo pocket or fanny pack. Concentrate on flat items and minimum quantity in the small kit :
1) Rubber inner tube piece with cuts for use as tinder.
2) Piece of hacksaw blade or saber saw blade
3) Unlubed condom for use as canteen.
4) Small signel mirror
5) Piece of note paper
6)Strip of moleskin
7)Bug rellant wipe
8)Alcohol prep pad
9) Bandage
10) Aluminum foil for bowl
11) Credit card multi-tool
12) Emergency rain poncho
( and some less flat items )
13) Bic lighter wrapped in a little duct tape, dental floss, wire, parador and fishing line.
14) Safety pin
15) Pencil stub
16) Photon Micro Lite flashlight
17) Toilet paper
18) Food bar or can of sardines
19) Water purification tablets, coffee filter
Optional : Classic tiny swiss army knife, Leatherman squirt, whistle, button compass, Emergency mylar blanket.
20) All contained in Zip-loc bag.
Love your videos. Good to know firsthand what’s going on in Europe. This is a great kit. As some of the comments suggest, I would add pain killers to the kit and general purpose antibiotics perhaps.
Your calling is journalism.... You're very good at it.
Great little kit. The only things I would’ve added would be a sturdy sail needle and maybe a fresnel lens for sunny days. Other than that I’d say this covers all the basic needs. 👍
This is the closest to one of my wilderness survival kits that I’ve seen on youtube. Your choices are very solid in that you are organized and favor backpacking-tested or military-tested tools over the “kitchen junk drawer” approach that many youtubers take. I’ve regarded your approach to PSK’s seriously ever since seeing you include a bow string, tiny piece of glue stick and fletching material in your Altoids kit a few years ago. It seems that many youtubers error either too far with the book-doctrine or the “scrounging the house” approach. A compact kit designed to preserve your life should carry the highest quality gear that your wallet can afford. Many guys spend less than one round of drinks at their local watering hole. I’d take your kit into the bush today and procure a functional camp and am confident that you could take mine and do likewise. Anywhere above the equator and below the tundra line.
Compass my recommendation is a small quality Base compass.. for a wrist compass backup hobby lobby store sells a pack of three wrist compass NOT liquid filled.. 4-$5 for three compasses that go on your wrist watch band.. they are not liquid filled but they work just as good in all the compasses I bought were accurate I've had one on my wristband for 8 months now got banged around quite a bit never broke never lost its direction
In the top of the tin, you should have an extra folded up plastic bag, big enough to hold all the items. Out in the wet wild, you will not have a nice table to hold everything, so a bag to put things in, as you dig down, or need the tin to boil water.
I think though this is great! Very often I’ll have all to most of these things in my everyday carry bag or dits in pockets , instead of carrying a tin with them in. But perhaps I should and use it more for every day instead or just emergencies? What do you think?
Thanks as always. I am going to change out a bit of my survival bag. It is bigger though.
Nice kit ! You could put some magnesium flakes in the cotton fire starters ! Maybe hard candy , for a treat , take care ! 👍
Great kit Lilly. May try to add an orange bandana.
You should get a nice little Fanny pack or sling bag if you need more space, so you can add more to your trauma/med kit, also consider a small bottle of hand sanitizer, it’s highly flammable and works in rain and snow conditions, great for fast fire starting (also more cordage and a decent sized tarp for shelter building)
Very reliable compasses 😄 Each of them points in different direction!
Thank you. Mini kits can be very useful. Have carried and use mine regularly for years now!
Most excellent, Lilly. Proud of you. 🙏
A sturdy square can made of stainless steel would be better than a tin can. You could then use the container to repeatedly boil water over a fire to make it drinkable. A stainless steel can with a lid can be found in stores that sell kitchen accessories. It may work to heat water in a tin can, but the material is very weak and not intended for this. You could even fry meat in a stainless steel can. And you could transport a small amount of (boiled) water in the stainless steel container with a plastic lid.
A tin can develops dents over time and tends to rust. An alternative to the stainless steel can is an aluminum can. It would be lighter and you could also boil water in it. There are good lunch boxes for this purpose.
Your knife is the best one can find in this size. However, if you want to get a stainless steel can of boiling water out of the fire, then a multitool with pliers would be a much better choice.
Everything else in the can makes sense, but isn't much different from many of the other "ultimate survival kits" shown on UA-cam.
Excellent kit Lilly! Thank you for all you do for our global prepper community.
The ultimate survival knife for a small kit, is for me, a Cold Steel Pocket Bushman. AND a small swiss army knife, maybe a Huntsman.
The Pocket Bushman is strong enough to chop wood or split wood. The lock is extreme strong.
When the spine is sharpened, you can use the blade with a fire steel.
The knife is flat, lightweight, very sharp, easy to sharpen and a workhorse for the money.
A nice tool roll bag is the best kit organiser for prepers cans are only for hidden buried stashes
