 Fun & compact, but needs extra stuff April 15, 2010

Another "Survival Kit in a Can" product. This has a cheap toy whistle (you need better, and I have read a review which sez the whistle in this kit didn't work, which is very bad), a cheap pack of matches (needs better and a flint would be good also) one good tinder cube- enough for one fire, a small poor compass, a fishing hook, and some poly thread which can be used for fishing line if you have to. Most other kits like this have a needle also, so the thread can be used for sewing too.
For Medical, you have 1 bandaid, an alcohol swab, a couple of painkillers, and a triple antibiotic ointment. This is not bad at all for this sort of kit. I'd want 2-3 bandaids, myself.
For "food" you have a small candy, gum, a packet of bullion, a tea bag, and sugar. Well, since a real good idea when 1st lost is to STOP! and make a cuppa, this is OK for that purpose.
For tools, etc we have a foot of duct tape- very nice, a single edge razor blade (a good addition if you already have a decent knife) and a few other things.
The kit is compact, and fits in a pocket well. It is completely waterproof and sealed in a sardine tin. The bad news is, this kit is not as closely packed as the others, and it rattles a little. Annoying. You supposedly use the can itself as a signal mirror.
So, if you supplement this with a good knife, a better whistle, a survival blanket or bivvie, a small 1st aid kit and a firestarting flint with some extra tinder, it's not a bad thing for situations where you aren't going to be too deep in the outback. But all by itself.....

Well I Probably wont buy this product again. It could have been better.
Some of the items were sort of cheap. If you are looking for a survival kit I recommend you
buy one from[...] There quality is better and the cost is cheaper.
Buy Two! October 5, 2009

This is such a wonderfully nutty item suitable to buy for anybody on any occasion...but the survival kits are so cool that I suggest you buy at least two for each recipient - one to open and look through and one to keep intact!
Been looking for years!! January 25, 2009
