lighter (bic with a metal case)
chap-stick (original I do not care for the flavored varieties)
Bandanna

Kit

(falls under comfort, FAK, and USK)

Altoids tin
8 ibuprofen in pill fob
4 little, 2 big, 1 little and 1 big curved needle
10' black thread
20-30' 50lb test fishing line
4 1000mg tums (wrapped in aluminum foil)
4 cloth bandaids
1 little tube krazy glue
razor blade
2 3'' wires (white and black, light gauge, insulated)
p-38 (can opener)
4 q-tips (wrapped in plastic)
nitro plastic tube with Orajel in it, duct taped closed
1 1/2' of aluminum foil folded flat
2 2x3 gauze pads
4 iodine wipes
mini (homemade) led torch (rubber tube, 2 button batteries, tactical eraser, red led bulb)
little bundle of picture wire
1 big 1 med 4 small (1 tiny brass) safety pins
1 big 1 med 1 little rubberbands
duck tape (10 ft wrapped around a card taped to outside)

This kit is designed to provide me with what i need while out and about. It is not a PSK for the backwoods or a stand alone FAK. It covers my basics for what i need while at work/college. I will carry this kit while in "country" (ie outside city limits but population density is still high) but if i am going into the back-country i take more gear. Pretty much everything in the kit falls into the category of "I wish I had ... at this time."

Here is my PSK. Most typical contents are shown, however depending on area, terrain, weather, remoteness etc, some items may be deleted or added accordingly.

The kit barely fits in the bag, but some of the items are put into pockets or attached to pants belt which frees up some room for a few food items such as a Cliff bar(s), dried pepperoni sticks or beef jerky. Other items not shown are a Leatherman Blast and a 6" folding garden saw.

Nice little kit. I am not sure how much those water purification tablets can treat...perhaps 1 LT (quart) each?

On a hot day, you can go through a lot more water then that. In my PSK seen here, I carry a minimum of 30 tablets all the time. On a 4-1/2 hour, 12 mile intermediate hike on this past Saturday, I treated 4 LT of water and it is not even hot weather season yet.

Izzy,

Are you using a coin tube in your tin?

If not, what is the tube in there?

No, he's not, but he seems to know where his towel is. I aspire to do the same.

I hope you're not too confused...
