Good kit indeed. In addition to the suggestion that CnD made and your wants I would highly suggest using a light Camelbak instead.

First since you want water purification tablet and you seem to have no containers for water as part of your kit (more importantly than getting the tablets is having water in the first place), the bladder solves that problem. Second the Camelbak bladders already remove 99.9999999999999999 (most)% of bacteria through their tube filter so all you really need is to filter out the crap using a shirt.

Also, I don't see why you need two strikers, and two flashlights (and a glow tube), and two SAKs.

For lights I suggest that you don't need such a powerful light. In such a situation where this kit might be in use, I'm 100% sure your not gonna go around blinding animals for your safety. I would recommend a hands-free light source because if you do get yourself in a sticky situation your gonna want to use both hands for work. Headlamps are geared towards this. Besides your not gonna need to illuminate an entire hillside, only what is in front of you. Yea you might be able to signal better with a more powerful flashlight, but if you've got a large fire going with a lot of smoke, I'm sure seeing that from a plane won't be a problem. Plus there are other many ways to signal your location. That and it's much better treating you wounds or injuries than signaling for help, and in most cases help won't come in a few hours, let alone a few days.

And pertaining to strikers, two is redundant and extra stuff that you really don't need. I would suggest that you replace one of them with a small butane lighter (Bic lighter). That's a better and lighter back-up (or main source, but then be sure to check fuel levels) for fire making.

Two Saks? Really, the Swisstool will be handier. Get yourself a nice pair of tweezers if you really need tweezers (which you will) and stick them in niche in your pack.

And definitely listen to PK (your missing the canteen but the Camelbak should cover that). A fishing kit can really come in handy with hooks and wires. Plus fish is much easier to get than other animals. No traps and plus, it's brain food!!

Some other things that you could include are industrial strength trash bag which can be used for a bunch of stuff, use your imagination (few examples: poncho, shelter, water filter [no not like a sieve]), just like 550 para cord. Along with that some plastic bags can come in handy as well.

By the way, I hope you won't stick your hand in your mouth after you've done number 2 in the woods without properly disinfecting your hands. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/barf.gif" alt="" /> Get some hand sanitizer. I think the triclosan products are better than the benzalkonium chloride products. They both kill bacteria but triclosan works longer.

Rubber gloves should be included. They will come in handy for really nasty stuff that you might encounter.

And with all your knives coming along, they might get dull. Get yourself a small Arkansas stone. Preferably one of medium grit so that you can actually sharpen the steel. Too fine and you'll barely scratch the edge. Too coarse and you'll dull the edge.

Oh and where is your med kit?!?!?????!!??!!? <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" /> Getting boo boos and then an infection can result in immediate amputation which will severely hinder your chance of survival. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/doh.gif" alt="" /> Course I'm exaggerating but still, I don't want to wake up the next day with a black arm after I accidentally cut/poked myself.

Also, ditch the large fix blade. If I every see you in survival situation with one, you will be completely dehydrated and hallucinating. Trying to chop your way out of a survival situation will quickly leave you dehydrated, exhausted, and confused. If you really need the firewood... well your not gonna be able to start a fire with just a really large log. You'll need to build your fire from scrap twigs.

Hope that helps but remember, if you don't like the situation don't get yourself in one. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />
