In my pockets I carry a SAK rucksack, a 3LED AA light, a 'bullet' space pen, kershaw chive, 20' paracord, bandana, two large zip ties, and a zippo. Around the neck I have a CRKT Hawk K-AT with a red Princeton Pulsar II and an aluminum vial with strike anywhere matches. In my wallet I have a couple small zip ties. To this I generally either add my Maxpedition Thermite, which has a ton of stuff in it, or - if I don't feel like carrying all that, then I take my Altoid kit which is in a compass case. In that I have water purification tabs, tinder etc - around the tin is about 10' of paracord and in the bottom of the compass case another SAK (TY generous ETS member). I'm probably over bladed and over equipped to start fires - but I dislike being cold. I can envision likely scenarios, even in an urban environment, where I would want to be able to start a fire. I live in the north. Freezing doesn't appeal to me. I carry a few fishing items in both the thermite and the altoids kits, but it's minimalist - I doubt I would ever need those items for fishing. The one item I intend to add is a whistle to my neck rig since I'm almost never without that. I have a whistle in the Thermite, but it's to big for the neck rig (modified Fox40). I'd like to add one to the Altoids kit, but it needs to be flat and small. Yes, I do double up (triple up) items I think are important. And besides... I'm a gear junky....
