I hate MSRPs and will rarely give them out because they're so bogus
Nice! I'm going to buy a bunch of them and give them as gifts.
Good point. Especially when you are stressed. Simple information may be critical to your survival.
You have to be careful about putting stuff under the inner sole of your shoe. You might be able to do that with the titanium blade but the arrowhead would probably not only be uncomfortable but unsafe as well. The SOE and OSS in WW2 had contoured insole knives, believe it or not. Followed the natural curvature of the arch of the average human foot. They would have that knife in one custom leather insole and a row of gold coins in the other insole. There was a small lanyard and you would pull the center piece of leather out with the coins in them. Pretty slick.
The arrowhead can double as the SOE/OSS Lapel Knife. The leather sheath for them was a very simple affair.
Take a looky at this and you will see some goodies:

The pics are scans because way back when I started my website, I didn't have a camera but I had a flatbed scanner!
Flexible being the key word, I was thinking a ceramic blade.
Good set overall.![]()
So i was thinking about making a short video showing some quick ways of concealing E&E gear that is included in this kit, but I wanted to ask for some feedback. Specifically, do you feel it would be irresponsible to make such a video? I'm not planning on showing how to use the stuff but more so explaining how gear sitting in a kit form does little for E&E unless you have it properly prepared and placed on your person (example, a kit would likely be removed from you if you were kidnapped while kevlar cord hidden properly would get past just about any search). Would anyone be interested in seeing this or would I be wasting my time?

By all means make it. We have plastic cards in the kit explaining how to conceal them items and that the items are useless if you don't
Just don't film yourself shoving a handcuff key up your potato shoot... please.
I have one of those Tekna cards, the same style as the picture. They changed the blade in the last models made. Blackjack knives made lapel knives in "plastic" a few years ago, picked up some of them also. Plus, It was a great article Don. Keep up the good work.
