If you frequently go to the wilderness, as a hunter, backpacker, or bushcrafter, you need to have a last
ditch survival kit. Prepared individuals build small kits and call them
PSK's, or personal survival kits. They are the last line of survival, if
everything has gone wrong, and all your other gear has been lost,
stolen, or destroyed. They are small enough to strap to your belt, or
carry in a pocket, so that they are always on you. As a Special Forces
medic once told me, "If it isn't strapped to you when everything goes
sideways, you don't own it."
Generally here at Dragoon Solutions we advocate building your own
survival kits. Usually that allows you to put together a kit that fits
your needs specifically, without wasting money on something that you
don't want or need. However, we have found a kit that meets a need, and
leaves you with plenty of room for customization.
Randall's Adventure and Training/ ESEE Knives has been building no-nonsense survival gear and knives since 1997. Their equipment has been used in combat zones and law enforcement operations all over the world by warfighters and counter-narcotic special operations teams, and by every day men and women who know the importance of solid blades and survival equipment. If you have read much on this blog, you may have noticed we are big fans of ESEE knives. Recently, through a contest of theirs, we have come into possession of their Advanced Pocket Survival/ EE Kit.
