Well, June is upon us, the summer is here. Its hot (here at least
), and it time for the outdoors to kick it up a notch. Here we go.
With all the activities, fishing, hunting, hiking, camping, bushcrafting, soldiering, and whatnot, things happen. When they do, you need either A) have a medic patch you up or B) do it yourself.
This is the June Challenge, Construct 3 First Aid Kits (FAK), a "Truck Kit", "Pack Kit", and a "Pocket Kit".
Truck Kit- designed as an inclusive kit to cover all your needs, designed to be carried in a vehicle of some sort. This is to represent a kit too large for normal carry methods, our Large Kit, if you will. Designed as a sustained medical bag for long term care.
Pack Kit- designed as an inclusive kit to cover all your needs, designed to be carried in your backpack. Comprehensive for field treatment of injuries when you are in an isolated enviornment.
Pocket Kit- desgned as an inclusive kit to cover all your needs, designed to be carried in a pocket on your person, daily. Comprehensive treatment of daily injuries, johnny on the spot with small cuts, abrasions, and other minor medical needs.
Now, the particulars. Don't go out and buy a S.T.O.M.P pack and take pics, this needs to be designed BY YOU. It should fit your area, your body, and your thoughts on what YOU will need. Make them yours. Spend as much on supplies as you wish, but nothing says YOURS, like stuff from home. Build it how you wish.
The idea here, is that everyone that participates, thinks about FA, and how it will be used. If you don't know how to use a suture kit, why have it? Also, everyone that participates, has a chance to win a knife, but will have 3 badass FAK's at their disposal now, as well.
You can ONLY post 2 pics, one all packed up, ready to go, next to a $1 bill, for size, and one pic of an exploded view, with all the components laid out. You must explain what each item is, why you chose it, and how you will use it. REPEAT: 2 pics per kit, for a total of 6 pics per post. A BKT product must be present in each photo, I don't care how or where it is, but it has to be in the pic.
You can post 1 video per kit, no longer than 8 minutes.
You must be 18. You must be legally able to own a knife. You are responsible for yourself and property. Neither Kabar, BKT, Ethan Becker, BFC, or anyone else is responsible for you or what you do.
You have until June 30th at midnight to have your entries in. You may change or adjust your entries as many times as you wish, until Midnight, June 30th.
On another note, be original, be creative. FAK are not just store bought, universal. Everyday household items make some of the best kits out there, and the work much better, honestly.
Open Contest, anyone can enter. Post "I accept the Challenge", make your acceptance post your entry, NO CHATTING. You will be disqualified.
What will you be playing for?
1st place- BK3
2nd place- BK2
3rd place- BK11
Honorable mentions, get a BK13 Remora
Let the games begin. Have fun, good luck, and be safe
