Comparison to a Field Notes Memo Book |
When looking at small personal survival kits, many folks decide to use a Altoids or similar type tin. I wanted to go over another option by way of the Maxpedition Micro Organizer. This pouch is a smaller clone of the cargo pocket organizer. Using something like this allows you to get away with larger type tools than a tin type kit without sacrificing much additional space.
Lets go over what I was able to place in the kit.
The Micro Organizer does just that- ORGANIZE. It keeps all the essentials in place with small pockets and elastic webbing. It has a one way zipper closure and a small mesh pocket on the front of the pouch.Contents:
- Inova Flashlight
- Base plate compass
- BIC Lighter
- Spark Lite tool w/ 5 Tinder Quik tabs
- Space Blanket
- Whistle
- Aluminum Foil sheet
- Small amount of Duct Tape
- Snare Wire
- Pencil
- Fresnel Lens
- Gerber Dime Multi-Tool
- Ontario RAT-2
- 2 Sheets of Rite in the Rain paper
- Signal Mirror
- Water Purification Tabs
- Kevlar Cordage
Most of these items would not fit in a standard Altoids Tin. Especially the base plate compass and folding knife. This was just to give you guys some various options. I got the pouch, knife, and multi-tool from Southblade and encourage you guys to check them out at www.southblade.com
