S.O.L. Survival Kit from Adventure Medical Kits

February 17, 2009

Adventure Medical Kits S.O.L. (Survive Outdoors Longer) survival kit. We have had this handy survival kit in our 3 day pack for a little over a year now. It looks about like it did when it was new. We have taken the items in and out of the kit many times. The S.O.L. Survival Kit includes: a small water filled button Compass, a small floating Mini Rescue Flash Signal Mirror, a yellow Slim Rescue Howler Whistle, eight Waterproof and Windproof Survival Matches in a plastic tube, three Waterproof Tinder Quik in a ziplock bag, a Heatsheets Survival Blanket, a Survival Fishing Kit in another plastic tube and 100 feet of re-rolled Duct Tape. The whole S.O.L. kit can fit into a water bottle or just about any pocket on a backpack or bag

Tool Logic Survival II pocket tool

February 17, 2009

We were asked to review this Survival II Card pocket tool from Tool Logic. This version is in blue with a red LED light. Other models have a Compass / Magnifying Lens instead of the light, or a gray smoke color card. This handy little tool has enough useful features that it would be an excellent addition to any first aid or survival kit. We took these initial photos of the Tool Logic Survival II Card before we started testing it.
