I have seen a few threads on PSK lately. I really like survival kits. I don't know why I do. I enjoy putting then together. I like trying to think of items that have multiple uses. Once that process is complete, I attempt to shove it all in to a very small package. I always carry a small kit in my pack while in the woods. If I have a base camp I put the kit on my belt or in a cargo pocket. I was asked to do a vid on my kit so here it is.
Here are a couple of pics.

I have been looking for a supply of this for years!!!! Thanks for the link Bro.
IA Woodsman, can you tell me what kind of cordage you have in your kit and where you picked it up at?
I believe you said it had an inner core like 550 or was that a slip of the tongue in the video? Either way it's a great kit, and I have watched this video a dozen times as well as your other videos. Thanks.
There is a link on post #31 for that cord. Glad you like the vids.
Another link for those interested in a PSK sized water carrier a little more sturdy than a Ziplock.
