I thought long and hard before submitting this post. I realize that this board attracts the full gamut of survival fans; young and old, newbie and expert, amature and professional.
Accordingly, many of our members and visitors have limited financial resources and sometimes have to make due with gear that wouldn't be their first choice if money were no object. So, being at a place in my life where I am able to splurge for only the best, highest quality, cutting edge technology, survival gear, I was a little reluctant to post this topic and appear to "rub your noses" into the fact that I have the PSK that most of you can only
dream of ever possessing.
Then I realized something, it would be selfish of me to keep something this amazing to myself, in fact I owe it to each one of you to set the standard of what a first class PSK should look like.
Sure, some of you may complain, "But Lasd02, you've set the bar too high, how can any of us choke down one more Altoid after comparing our measly kits to the PSK superstar that you have compiled?" To those I would reply, "Don't hate me because my PSK is superior to yours, try (as best you can), to emulate and learn from the vastness of my PSK knowledge."
It covers (of course), the 10 essentials. All contained in this waterproof, ripstop, fully insulated, mobile transportation unit:
The map:
The compass:
The Flashlight:
The Knife:
The Shelter:
The Fluid Delivery/Electrolyte replacement module:
The Fire making facet:
The communication element:
I can already hear some of the naysayers, "Ha, that's only 8 essentials you fool!" But that's OK, they laughed at Galileo as well. I'm working on acquiring the last 2 essentials and hope to have the lunch meat & polka components added to my kit before the spring Grunion run commences.
