I've seen it before. My opinion is that it IS pretty. And most of it is effective (I want to see the squirrel that was supposedly taken with the blowgun- the blowgun is a lousy weapon until you've practiced with it for a LONG time).

But, in all honesty, my opinion of it is the same as the newest Life Capsule from Triple Aught: "survival bling". Except for the blowgun, a good bamboo staff can do everything here for half the cost, and that includes a better knife in the form of the Cold Steel Bushman and a screw, or a custom plug bayonet-type set up using a blade from a knife maker's supply house. Or I can make a better staff (free, just takes time), add a triple tine firsh spear (about 3 bucks), a good knife, and a small pack for the same price.
