I am thinking if I should buy myself ready made large survival kit or make it myself. I see from the review of kits that only Master Pro Survival Kit got "excellent" rating http://www.equipped.org/pro_master_kit.htm . But it is very expensive!


My problem as well. I love the looks and contents of the kit, but I just can't justify spending the money on it. So I'm building my own discount version...slowly.

...I often take 3 knives for camping or even day walking because I usually take 3 knives to work. Do you think people like me should have one more knife in the kit?


I try to always have more than one of everything in my kit and on my person. Why? When the lights go out, everyone knows I'm the Go-To person for flashlights. I need a few for lending out as well as an incandescant and LED for me. Same goes for blades, first aid items, and so on.
