Ever think of getting a larger pouch, 2nd belt pouch or even adding a nite-ize pockets to carry a few things? Small is great, but going too small may hurt you in the long run.

My kits are a bit larger than most might like, but it did not take me long to get used to them. I use both front pockets and both back pockets to carry parts of my kit. Splitting the kit into several parts makes it easier to carry.

Modified AMK kit left rear (looks like a large wallet in the pocket). Large first aid items (4x4's, telfa pads, tape strips, vacuum sealed), water carry bags, hair comb and bandannas in right rear. Lighter (yea, it?s a BIC), pouch of meds, a few bans-aids, etc. (modified pocket pack), right front. Left front is Vic OH trekker (wish it had a pocket clip ? may move to small belt sheath), led light on keys, personal items and swiss card money clip with 1 credit card, and folding money. A Leatherman belt holster with Mini-mag, Leatherman Wave, small vaughan flat pry bar (modified), 4" flat and phillips blade from small multi screwdriver, F. rod (all fits tight but fits) on my belt. Credit cards and divers license in a witz neck wallet, asprin vial on the cord. I don?t carry a regular wallet..

When wearing a suit or sport coat, I dump the items from the belt holster into deep inside pockets. Same for rear pockets if needed. Dress shoes are lace up leather walkers (feet don?t fail me now).

Far more than a Altoids tin, but I'm comfortable with what I carry, and that is the most important part. It seemed a bit bulky at first, but I adjusted a few things and got used to it.

Other items go in a Dillon soft briefcase or fanny pack as the situation warrents. <img src="/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />
