I have two types of kit - one that resides in a pouch that I put in whatever bag or rucksack I'm taking, and the other one, that I keep on me.

I even have it in my pocket when I sit in my living room. Item one:
Izula (sorry no pics - with wrapped handle)

Item two: a pouch originally made for car keys containing:

GoingGear firesteel and striker. The orange paracord helps finding it and tugging it out underneath all the other stuff.

medication (Apis against those nasty stings, Arnica to help with twisted ankles - and don't say it is a matter of believing if homeopathy works, I've seen it work on cats and dogs) and tinder - there's cotton and twine in that tube, all 3 tubes are held together by inner tube and underneath the inner tube there is a small piece of tinder fungus.
Though I decided the Arnica will go to the first aid and meds section of the other kit ...

From right to left:
whistle, p38 tucked into a section of inner tube, pry bar, tweezers, led-light

All packed up with only the light staying out for use - for carry the light will be inside.

I've used all items frequently, and this is more of a things I want to keep within immediate reach than last ditch kit.
 
Sweet set up, I'd maybe add a small roll of duct tape wrapped around a small pencil or the like. Great little edc set up
 
Where did you get those mini tube vaults??

What kinda pouch you using?

Got them from a shop for laboratory equipment, they come in lots of different sizes.

The pouch is a car key pouch made from some leather substitute. Car dealers often give those to customers.

Next project is something like this. Found a swiss canteen with plastic bottle and aluminum cup.

Very good setup Kitty, I never would have thought of using a key pouch.

Looking forward to seeing your PSK Canteen kit too, I just read it and ordered a couple from Sportman's for a decent price. :)
 
County Comm sells the Aviation cable key rings in two sizes, 6" and 12". I have had to buy quite a few from them, because I keep giving them away to friends and family.
 
Yup, right. There's a small shop sending selected County Comm stuff outside the US.
I misplaced the link, but there was a thread on gear in the stickies, where you can find that link.
 
I call the Widgy my fingernail saver ... which is why this is one of the tools I want to have on me always ...
 
front pocket or dangling from a belt ...
(ladies pants sometimes have rediculously small pockets)
