My Vic Spirit "Personal Support Kit"!
I was just playing around and came up with a idea to add a few things to my ratcheting Swiss Tool Spirit pouch. I went over with Sharpshooter over on Knife Forums what I wanted and he built the Kydex add on holders for a PEAK Matterhorn LED and a full sized BIC lighter. There are attached to the Spirit pouch by Chicago screws with a think Kydex backing inside the pouch. One is attached to each pocket of the pouch.

If you look carefully at picture numbers 2 and 3, you see my Red ALOX Woodsman in behind the bit set. The is a bit more room, and plans are to add a small bison whistle, a K-1 "sparky" magnesium/ferro rod, and a pull off clip attachment for a mini photon LED light. Redundant with 2 lights and fire sources, yes, but why not?

If I decide to modify my other Spirit pouch, I may replace the full-sized BIC with a mini Bic lighter.

I will see if a Vic survival kit mirror and/or sewing kit will also fit in the pouch.

For those who haven't seen one, the 91mm Alox Woodsman is just a blade and a saw. I was using a Alox Bantam II or Bantam in my pouch until I nabbed the Alox Woodsman. I like the larger blade, and the addition of the saw.

Nice, beautiful use of space!
Although I wouldn't carry a whistle. (personal preference)

I like it alot - good idea and nice work by Sharpshooter. I just had a sheath built by him - he does a good job.

Yes he does. He will build about anything you want, or can think of!
