Silky Pocketboy Curve Professional 130mm This little folding saw is an excellent addition to your survival kit. It makes for faster shelter construction, litter construction, and firewood processing. We added the 130mm model (5 in.) because its compact size means it stows easily in packs, kit bags, etc.
Survival Backpack, v1 - 5col Survival Supply We spent a long time trying to come up with a ruggedly built, American-made Backpack for under $100. This backpack is intended for use as a vehicle Go-Bag (or Get-Home Pack), but it also works well as a daypack, or for school, work, etc. I carried one of these as a day pack for a while before selling a batch to one of our aviation clients. I like the pack, they like the pack, and now it's officially available from 5col Survival Supply. Don't forget the forum discount code is SHEEPLE. That will get you 5% off your total order on our site!
Pocket Survival Kit - ESEE Knives The revised Pocket Survival Kit from ESEE, with a new set of contents in their awesome little American-made 1000d cordura pouch. Available in OD or Orange.
Yeah, it's a great change. The original kit was focused a lot more on Escape/Evasion. This revised version zeroes in on basic survival needs in as small a package as possible. At some point in the near future we should also offer the pouch by itself (no contents). It's a well-made pouch and would be great for a lot of different applications.
@5col i thought they were swapping out the tinder tabs for waxed jute twine? I thought I heard this somewhere.
The ones we have in stock right now still have the TinderQuik tabs. Haven't heard anything about jute twine. I think my preference is for the TinderQuiks, overall. However, I would mention that it's hard to ignite light-colored tinder with fresnel lenses (in my experience).
