I have a new website for the Personal Survival Kit that I assembled. If you want to buy one you can go to there. The site is not quite finished yet because I still have to set up a way to pay by credit card or PayPal but you might want to browse the site to learn more about the kit. The site is just one long page. You can see almost the entire page below.
For those who will buy online, I'm giving a discount of $1.50 - that's why the price for the PSK is only $13.50 whereas it should have been $15.00. But I have to charge $3.70 for shipping anywhere in the US. I know I said I would donate $1.50 to the church or any charitable organization but that is if you buy in person and I don't have to spend for the shipping.
I have 15 PSK at the moment, quite a few because this is just a hobby and a test on selling online. I might give a bonus gift to the first 3 buyers, so visit the site frequently for new updates.
That's all folks! Thanks for reading.
I think I have been bitten by PSK in Can mania. Ever since I made my first kit in can, I have made another two versions, a bigger one and smaller one. Here's the bigger one version.
More items added.
Clockwise from top, left: Firesteel, petroleum coated cotton balls, char cloth, whistle, petroleum jelly coated cotton balls, SAK Gardener knife, candle, duct tape, band aid, twisty, button compass, BIC sparky, whistle, fishing kit and LED flashlight. You know what, I forgot to wound the fishing line in the credit card. Rest assured I would do it.
There you are, I added a fishing kit, band aid, twisty, candle, BIC sparky, duct tape and char cloth. I could add some more items, I guess. Very appropiate kit with my neck knife.
That's all folks! Thanks for reading.
I have been contemplating on building a Personal Survival Kit for quite sometime. A kit that would contain the basic items that would help your effort to get out of survival situation alive, a kit that would grow to suit your needs, experience, and environment. A kit small enough to carry in your pocket or tossed in the glove compartment of your car so it will always be with you.
The blizzard that hit our area made me really think hard about winter preparedness. My brother told me that he was stranded in his car with his wife for 2 hours at Lake Shore Drive. Some motorists have to spend longer than that in their car before they were rescued. Who says you have to be in the wilderness to be in a survival situation?
The blizzard of 2011.
But what about when you got stranded in a remote area and help cannot get to you at once. What about if you have to spend the night in your car or it would take days before you can get rescued? Are you prepared to survive?
This Personal Survival Kit can save your life.
Tin can and its contents.
Clockwise: Firesteel, whistle, petroleum jelly coated cotton balls, knife, LED flashlight and button compass.
Firesteel and petroleum jelly coated cotton balls for starting a fire. Remember the survival rules of 3's, 3 hours of exposure to elements - you die. A lot of people during winter succumb to hypothermia. Just read the news.
Small utility folding knife.
LED flashlight. For finding things in your car at night and for signaling for help.
Aluminum whistle. Better than shouting or yelling and exhausting yourself. 3 short burst is universal sign for help. The sound from a whistle reaches farther that a shout or yell.
Button compass. It is not advisable to leave your car because it would be easier to find you if you're in or near your car than when you are wandering about not knowing where to go. But if you really have to leave and look for help, this compass will give you the general direction.
I made several PSK because I plan to sell them for $15.00 each, 10% of the gross sales will be donated to the church or charitable organizations.
That's all folks! Thanks for reading.
