Cool, but I prefer to build my own. That way, I control the content and quality of what's inside. A "store-bought" kit will likely miss some of the fundamental
gear that could be a life-saver for your envrionrment and provide other gear that is irrelevant. I prefer to pack my own bag, know what's in it , and
how to use all the contents. IMHO a better strategy would be to read the list of "essentials" that go into one of these commercial kits, and
contrast that against your own list..
In this case, the kit is missing
1. a compass
2. a knife
3. fire starter.. lighter, matches or firesteel.
Come on...those missing items are basic (and must-have ) survival items. and are required Boyscout essentials, that need be carried by each individual on any outdoor scouting event.
Folks that trust in these kind of kits without taking time to acquire the knowledge and skills (which can be found in the BSA
manual) to handle emergency situations can find themselves in serious trouble right quick..
Granted it's better than nothing, but for those interested in reading a survival forum, I would expect they could do their own research,
and do a lot better... plus building one's own kit is a lot of fun.. One could start by going to the Hoods Woods website, and
order the late Ron Hood's video about making survival kits.. that would be a good starting point.

Knowledge weighs nothing.. but it does carry a lot of weight.
