Customer Reviews

Its not the greatest survival kit in the world, and if you're planning on surviving with just this kit for very long, you're probably in trouble.
That being said, a few years back my wife and I were camping with some family friends. One of our friend's daughters decided she wanted to go on a small hike, so her dad went with her away from our campsite off into the woods. 30 minutes went by.. and then an hour. Just as I was getting together some things to go looking for them, I could faintly hear his voice yelling our names. After another 10 minutes of shouting back and forth, we were able to find each other.
They'd gotten a little too far from camp, and within a few minutes trees blocked the view of our site. Venturing a little farther, getting a little turned around, and it became a dangerous situation, especially as night was coming on soon.
He told me he'd been yelling our names for the better part of the hour, and probably was not very far away, but voices don't travel through trees or hills well.
Since then, everybody in our family keeps one of these tied to them or around their necks at all times while camping. The compass works so-so, the flint is almost useless, and the mirror doesn't reflect very clearly, but the whistle is priceless, and the waterproof container keeps matches nice and dry - the two most important things to somebody thats lost. For kids, who can take off and get lost in just a matter of seconds, its an absolute must.

This was even cheaper than it looked. It doesn't open so there's no place for matches, the flint is too small to be useful.
