Not a bad kit, but the one described in my SAS(Special Air Squadron) manual is lighter, and contains no unnecessary objects. I'd link a page, but there's only an independent page, and it's still under construction.

I really like this little minimalist survival tin. There is a lot of really useful stuff packed into a very small space and the tin itself can function as a signaling device or a handle for a saw. I'm sure the saw would be of very limited usefulness, but it would be better than nothing. I could imagine combining this with the paracord weave to make a survival belt or necklace, or even simply as a way to ensure that it stays closed but still provide easy access to open it. As others have said, finding a way to stuff a little compass into it would be a nice addition to whats already suggested in the article. Its a great little piece of compact scrapyard engineering.

From the page: "Bennett's Expedient Survival Tin (BEST) This kit is designed to be a 72-hour kit. It is designed to be small and portable, but also to be effective in providing for the Survival "Rule of Threes.""

Nice kit, going to make this with one of my daughters for a project at school.

A minimalist survival kit in an Altoids tin. The only things missing are a button compass and some mutated anthrax for duck huntin'.
