Useful content! thanks for creating and sharing!
Great information, I carry in my survival kit a small sewing kit, sturdy needle and strong nylon thread. It has coming in handy on several occasions.
Great selections. My only quibble is the fire starter. Chemical flares work so much better than anything else it’s not even close. They burn very hot, they always ignite regardless of wind and rain/snow, and they will even get a fire going from damp wood. If you’re actually in a situation that requires a fire, it’s probably super cold and wet and fussing around with tinder and sparks/tiny flame won’t work.
