A couple of pieces of new gear for my Bug Out Bag

I am certainly no different!  Here are three new pieces of gear I recently received and have incorporated into my own Bug Out Bag (BOB).  The first item is a 3 inch Smith’s Diamond Stone (http://smithsedge.com/products/product.asp?id=26&cid=10) .  The second item is a Stretch Lite Mini (http://countycomm.com/stretchlite.html). And last but certainly not least is a Chinook Technical Guide Tarp ).  All three pieces of gear exceeded my expectations, take a look at the videos below for a quick look at them.

About JJ

As a child I grew up in the Midwest on a small farm and fell in love with the outdoors. Later, that led me to join the USAF where I became a USAF Survival, Evasion, Resistance and Escape (SERE) Instructor. As a SERE Instructor I have trained in all types of environments. Temperate, Arctic, Desert, and Rain Forest. After four years in SERE I retrained into the counterintelligence and counterterrorism field where I have worked for 11 years. I have traveled to the Far East, Asia, Southwest Asia, Europe, the Middle East and South America. The combination of both careers has thought me to see two sides of a coin. I consider myself a realist and while I enjoy primitive survival living, hiking, camping, and hunting for short periods. I also have the experience & understanding to know that living primitively is NOT fun or easy for long periods. Therefore, I try to be practical and logical in an effort to build a reliable, flexible philosophy of self reliance that can be utilized in any situation. Hopefully reading this blog will help you to do the same.

    I already have the stretch light in my survival gear. It is definitely a must have. As for the blade sharpener, anyone provoked to get one it is also important that you learn the skill of blade sharpening before your life depends on making a dull knife sharp. It too me some time to learn that survival skill.

  2. Taylor,
    Great point, what type of sharpener do you recommend? Know where we can get a good price on one?
