Hello All, thanks for your thoughts and ideas. Ya I don't think that I will be sewing on anyone after some thinking. I would use those butterfly band aid sutures in a survival situation without access to a doctor. I believe you can even use supper glue sparingly to somewhat close a cut leaving a drain spot. I certainly don't want an abscess.

I am just thinking that I should have a few more items to cover everyday issues as will as a longer term survival situation.
