When I was so gainfully employed, I carried a Q-tip trial sized plastic box filled with essentials. While that box has gone by the wayside, it was stocked somewhat similarly to this mini-Witz container -



By adding a whistle and Photon light to your keyring and adding a Suunto Clipper compass to your watchband, you break things up a bit and gain space for other gear in your kit.

The kit above contains (+/- a few things) -

Bison whistle
Victorinox Alox Classic
Mini Magnesium FireStarter and hacksaw blade striker
Sparklight TinderQuik
Uncle Bill's SliverGripper Tweezers
Two large eye and two regular sewing needles
Suunto compass
Photon Covert in red (for long lasting light)
Bobber light
12yds dental floss
Victorinox pen refill covered by heatshrink tubing
Cut down cuff key w/ heatshrink tubing handle
Bandaids (2)
Butterfly strips (2)
Alcohol prep
Sting-eze Wipe
Wet wipe disinfectant
Pepcid tabs
Micropur tabs
Electrical tape
Ranger band
Traser Glowring

The box slides easily into a uniform shirt or pants pocket and is barely noticeable...
