Finally put together a little micro kit for EDC. Today is my first day to carry it and while it is still larger than I would prefer, it is almost half the size of an Altoids tin. I have all of the following in a very small wallet/business card holder. I'll post a pic when I get home tonight. The contents are as follows:

EDC Pouch Kit:

-Ferrocerium Rod (Removed from Doans MFS) **Fire Starting**
-3 Katadyn MP-1 Water Purification Tabs **Water Purification**
-Razor/Utility Knife **Multiple Uses including Striking a Spark on Ferrocerium Rod**
-4 Butterfly Sutures **Sterile Wound Closure**
-Large Oven Bag **Water Storage/Purification**
-6 Alcohol Pads **Sound Sterilation and Fire Starting Tinder**
-20" x 1.6" Duct Tape **Multiple Uses including Water Bag Repair**

Other EDC Items:

-Knife of some type (fixed blade, folder or multitool)
-Watch w/ Compass (Timex Exeption)
-Wallet (Relatively small/tin)
-Key Ring w/ Keys and Photon II
