Customer Reviews of Adventure Medical Kits Pocket Survival Pack
Customer Review: Great Emergency Preparedness Kit!
Summary: 5 Stars
I've been buying and building and updating emergency preparedness kits for over fifteen years now and this is a great package. Doug Ritter's put together a real wealth of stuff in a small package and it's all top notch materials. Individually the parts cost more than this total kit.
This is a great EP kit for all experience levels. The novice user will find the tools easy to use and the instructions appropriately detailed. The seasoned outdoor traveler will find this a kit they go to for the odds and ends that it contains.
This isn't an all inclusive kit and could use a few additions if you have the room. A small lighter is easy to squeeze in the bag. The kit does not contain a knife (there is scalpel blade) and I think that a deck of cards belongs in everyone's EP kit.
And important note is that this kit is not approved for carry-on luggage due to the scalpel blade included...

Customer Review: highly recommend for any camper
Summary: 5 Stars
This product is really great, I own three now - one for the backpack and 1 in each car. The quality of all the items is really excellent, and at $21.25 (for subscription customers) its a smokin' deal.
I would recommend this for anyone who wants to spend time in the woods, including boy scouts on "great adventures", kids who like to explore, and of course for more serious people like myself who like to get away from civilization on backpacking trips.
Buy this, and spend 15 minutes getting to know the parts and how to use them, and it could really save your life. Of course, you should add a small flashlight, small knife, and it would be useful if you were carrying a metal pot to boil water when you are out there in the woods...
But with this kit, you've solved 90% of your problems.
Customer Review: Pocket Survival Pack
Summary: 5 Stars
I found the Adventure Medical Kit to be one of the lightest, most compact kits on the market. The weight and size being saved by replacing the standard tin with a water-tight sealing pouch.
While the tin is gone everything else is pretty much still there. Duct tape, a very good whistle, cordage, etc. The only thing lacking was a light source and small $2.50 led light was easily added to the kit.
The only concern I might have with the kit is whether the water-tight seal would hold, it seemed somewhat fragile and only time would tell. The kit is a easy way to have a back up. I say back up, because you shouldn't rely on these kits over having standard equipment, they should be for emergencies and should be practiced with.
Customer Review: Perfect A+ kit, read for earplug/and fishing line info
Summary: 5 Stars
It may not make for a whole lot but I throw in a pair of disposable earplugs. Say you had to blow that single whistle (all day ...--...), your ears would be ringing so bad it could hinder your rescue and possibly cause permanent hearing damage. Some may argue the other end of that logic, just my 2 cents tho. Also D.doctor "The white cord is supposedly for fishing" FYI, Doug states on his web site[...] , that the 50 ft. of #69 Black Nylon Thread / Fishing Line: This is heavy-duty nylon thread, not cheaper and weaker polyester. At a minimum of 10.5 lb. (4.8 kg) test, it is strong enough to double as fishing line. I've caught some nice sized fish using this line and the rest of the fishing gear in the kit.
