This kit is based off the kit James Gibson uses in this Video:

 

And I think we all know James kinda knows what he’s doing.

 

I have one of these kits and took the screws out and stuffed them in the bottom of the bag.....then I put a small, double sided strop in the tin....

 

a homemade job....leather and compound on each side of a cut out of 5 ply plywood...small, but functional...

 

It’s does great on leather/wood in general but can get a little greasy if over-applied to handles, so just use it sparingly and you’ll be fine.

 

Ive used it on leather sheaths without incident.

 

You can purchase the B-Fat from us but the whole kit would have to be purchased from one of ESEE’s dealers.

 

It does smell like bacon (who can resist that?) so I store it just like you would food. I typically just hang the tube with my food in a tree when camping.

Those older ladies (cougars) love the smell of bacon too. So take the necessary precautions there as well.
