What case do you have for PSK? Pictures helpful

Ok. From everything I read (about 30 hours worth) we have:

1. Tabacco Tin
2. Altoid Tins
3. Band-Aid Boxes
4. PDA Pouches

What do you carry and why? Pictures helpful

Sigg Alu Midi ...currently housed in a MountainSmith Tour Fanny Pack.

See this thread also.

For hiking, I use an Altoids tin. But in urban settings, I don't like the feel of that hard case in my pocket. For "around-town minimum", I just use a keyring with things attached.

For "general around-town" I found this one at Target for $3.99

It's a soft case and fits in the pocket like a fat wallet. OK, pretty darn fat for a wallet, but it works well for me when wearing jeans. Just don't overstuff the thing and it sits nicely in a front pocket.

I carry a Ritter PSP (and a growing number of other items) in a Spec Ops Mini Pocket Organizer. This is for easy pocket transfers. It rides in a cargo pocket, or Max Proteus if no cargo pockets are available <img src="/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Actually, I carry another Spec Ops mini with EDC items in the cargo pocket on the other side...Space Pen, Rite in Rain pad, nail clippers, flash drive, etc.

I still want to build kits in an Altoids tin, tobacco tin and a Witz See It Safe...just for fun <img src="/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

A Whitman's Sampler candy tin. It's just a little bit bigger than an Altoids tin. It's wrapped with a few feet of paracord, and then overwrapped with a couple lengths of velcro tape.

I recently put my PSK contents (and added a signal mirror) into a BCB combat survival tin. (tossed out the original BCB kit contents).
That tin is about the same size as a tabacco tin, and it's perfect for me. <img src="/images/graemlins/cool.gif" alt="" />

I use one of these from Penrith. It's about the perfect size for my outdoor gear. Shipping from the UK about doubled the price though. I heard a rumor last year that there would be a US distributor but nothing since then.

Norad45, they have those at http://www.bcbsurvivalusa.com/, they're the new US distributor.

That's good news. I love mine. The price is still a little steep but worth it IMO. Looks like they are limiting quantities though so get 'em while you can: link.

I have been using a Q-tip container which has got to be around the lightest option. I bought a Witz container to try out but have not yet.

What about the OtterBox? Those look nice

Or boxes from Richard Wheatley Ltd?

Anyone have those?

Big white tool box that goes across the bed of my truck. Carries enough for four for 72+ hours. Food, water, shelter etc.

I use Aloksaks, they are plastic see-through bags similar to Zip-Locs but they are sturdier, and are waterproof/airproof (certified by the Navy to be waterproof to 200 feet).

I trust those for my wilderness PSK used for hiking and search & rescue operations.

If you need something stronger, I would go with Lock N' Lock containers available in various sizes. They are strong, waterproof and cheaper than Otter boxes or Pelican cases.
