Mini Survival Kit - Suggestions?

I'm putting a small kit together that will fit in the pouch of my knife. Here is what I have in it so far...

Mini compass.

My survival knife has a hallowed out handle that contains everything on your list in a watertight seal. One side is a sharp blade and the other a jagged saw. The sheath has 3 yards of parachord. It's awesome!


Wow, that sounds cool. Did you make it or buy it? Link for more info. Thanks.

A few people that I talk with have been throwing around whether cyanide, mercury, or hemlock belongs in the kit.

condom, and a section of nylons (can use as a bag to store stuff inside kit)

Wrap the sheath in 550 paracord...7 strand. Then make a belt out of the same stuff.

The belt idea is something I've been meaining to do. You can never have enough of that shit.

q-tips take up barely a space

Does the hollow handle affect the chopping power on it? Like can you really let loose on something with no worries?

Do you have room for a sandwiched size ziploc bag? That could be used to contain water...not very big, but you want compact.

I'm putting a small kit together that will fit in the pouch of my knife. Here is what I have in it so far...

Lansky shapening stone
Swiss steel and striker
~12 feet of snare wire
~40 feet of 10lb test fishing line
12 small hooks
12 small split shot sinkers
several safety pins
2 feet of tinfoil
razor blade
4 bandaids

Keeping in mind this all has to fit in an Altoids tin(exact size of the pouch on the sheath), any ideas on something small and usefull to add? It's pretty full, I'd probably have to remove something to add something. Thanks.

Mines set a little different but close

Needles w thread(good amt) wrapped around

I know a bandana won't fit in there, but you should keep one tied to your belt loop or something. Bandanas have multi uses...water filtration, sun protection, wind protection, concealment...could even be used as a weapon. Learned this from Dual Survivor. Love that show.
