funny that we never actually noticed but we have a quite a bunch of tiny objects that we stashed in our bags that seem almost bottomless when we tried to dig for them. of course, there are better solutions than dumping everything into one huge bag such as having individual pouches or containers to hold them. however, if you want to keep your wee items away from the elements…
we heard about how those doomsday preppers are getting on with loads of gears and supplies to survive through the suppose apocalypse but ask yourself this: what if you do not have the luxury of time or means to grab everything you need? we are no master doomsday prepper so we don’t have an answer for you but The Cell Survival Kit from a father and son outfit, J.L. Lawson…
when we think about emergency readiness, we hardly give much thought to first aid kit. sure, you probably have the basics such as bandage kit and/or bandaids stocked but we bet you did miss out the tools to carry out the patching up job when the need arises. well, the Leatherman Raptor here, though doesn’t sounds like it, is the multi-tool that will fill that void. it is a multi-tool that…
you know it is like to overpack with things when heading into the wild or loading up your stores or garage with too many tools that you use like once a year. we wish there are more many-in-1 tools, such as the Zippo 4-in-1 Woodsman. yes. for the uninitiated, Zippo has been dipping into the outline for quite a while and Zippo 4-in-1 Woodsman that we mentioned is part of the line they…
we will be honest with you: we never have the need for an axe but still, we dream of owning one each. we are not clear what’s so alluring about something that chops and cuts (and sometime, saws) to a grown man. perhaps, it is because some of them look so damn good such as this American Felling Axe that…
the great outdoor can pretty merciless and it helps if you are well prepared to take on what the wilderness might have installed for you. then again, you wouldn’t want to trade-in your Bear Grylls-like agility by bogging yourself with a trailer of ‘essentials’. what you really need is something like the Bear Grylls Scout Essentials Kit for those just in case scenario. the kit is designed by the…
you know how typical sleeping bags are. they are of slippery nylon that while offers adequate warm but we couldn’t say the same for the comfort level, much less the style factor. seriously, those silky stuff is not for everyone. lucky for those who are willing to part with your hard-earn money, there’s the Scout Field Bed to feel comfy about. crafted from 100% cotton Italian organic selvage…
if there’s anything that we learnt from Bear Grylls is we are having a too comfortable life and we thank him (or should it be Discovery?) for showing us the ropes for survival, albeit some methods being rather overly gross. hence, we welcome any product that have Grylls nod of approval and even more so if it bears his name (a name that’s synonymous with survival)
whether you are in the wilderness on your own accord or not, we bet the Lifestraw Personal Water Filter will be your best friend once your clean water source runs out. we know, it do sounds like being a jerk to be ‘a best friend’ only when trouble hits but that’s beside the point. anyway, the Lifestraw is a lifesaving invention by Danish Mikkel Vestergaard Frandsen that removes 99…
with the invention of lighter who would ever look back at matches? in fact, we shouldn’t be forsaking this first line of light up, you know, for those just in case situations but not just any standard matches other then the UCO Stormproof Matches. as the name suggests, it is designed specifically to accompany your through harsh conditions. each of these matches can burn…
Bear Grylls is quite a public figure by now and while many have aspired by his myriad tactics for survival, not all are comfortable chewing on raw guts of a camel or sleep within its freshly gutted hide. there’s got to have a better way and as it turns out, other than astronaut’s food, there’s indeed a less ‘gut-wrenching’ way and that happens to come in the form of the Datrex 3600…
