Product Overview
Small tools are easier to keep track of when they have a place together. The Rothco Survival Kit gathers fire-starting, signaling, cutting, and basic first aid supplies in a compact tin that fits in a pocket or backpack. For hiking and camping, it gives you a portable collection of emergency tools without requiring a separate pouch for each item.
A magnesium fire starter provides a means of starting a fire, while the compass offers a reference for direction. The whistle gives you a way to signal audibly rather than relying only on your voice. These are useful additions to outdoor preparations, particularly when you want small emergency supplies close at hand instead of scattered throughout your pack.
Cutting, Fishing, and Small Repairs
The kit includes two stainless steel blades and a stainless steel fingertip saw, giving you different tools for cutting tasks. A fishing set and copper line broaden the assortment beyond basic campsite supplies. For clothing and equipment repairs, the sewing kit and safety pins can help address small problems such as a loose seam or fabric that needs to be temporarily secured.
