I keep a black cloth (bandana/shemagh) to cover my pack in case I'm leaving it in the floor of someone's truck or something, just to keep it out of sight. Plenty of other uses, too. Might even work with that lock to keep things secure. Any utility knife that takes standard blades, and you can have a blade simply with a stop at a gas station. Toss the blade before you get back to the airport.

excellent! I keep all med gear in one large zip lock baggie including trauma shears. When TSA asks - trauma shears PART of my medical equipment! Great cutting tool!

I always carry an EDC similar to this everywhere I go. I learned some Ideas to save wait and gain more utility with this load out. Well Done! The Lock Leash is an amazing Idea! Thank you!

So, I am not the only one that travels with a carabiner for dual purpose. I may have picked that up from Ron Hood 30 or so years back. The steel Search and Rescue carabiners are truly an amazing tool. Kevin is always enjoyable to listen to, he is on the same page as most of the better instructors.Remember, if someone is good enough to decode your keys from a KZfaq video, they are certainly good enough to pick your locks.

Very well thought out video and I did pick up a couple ideas. The Tide packs are a great idea! I had been using a small refillable squeeze bottle with detergent but this is easier and far less likely to get messy!

Great video. Wish you made a video like this for everyone at FieldCraft Survival.

I think this was a good load out and presented very well. Thank you.

Love my Antero. Have carried daily for about five years now. Two recommendations. Level 3 panel in the back sleeve, and a small sheet of Tyvek or Silnylon tarp for additional shelter.

one of the best EDC videos on contents and presentation!!!!

Thank you for sharing that with us, Kevin 👍

I would love to see this as a written list

So fricking helpful! Please keep them coming! (That's what she said!)

Oh I totally learned something great from this. I’m on planes 50% of the time. Time for a 🐕 leash and my trusty master lock. Thanks Kevin!

Nice!! I definitely don't sort my electronics properly and i haven't been using color coded bags. I'll be so glad when the trickle down from Europe forcing everyone to use usb-C charging ports. I didn't see a solar charger for your battery bank so i might be one up on you with that. I definitely still use the BiC with inner tube just like you taught us previously. My med kit typically has Anti chafing ointment that doubles as chapstick and wound antiseptic (get salty britches) nose spray and Sudafed the real stuff (in mass Sudafed works as an upper)

Hey man that’s a cool set up! Thank you for sharing! You have a lot of good, useful stuff in there and not just filled with a bunch of gear like a lot of people! Wouldn’t completely fit my needs but again, this is YOUR pack not mine! Thank you for sharing and stay safe Bro! You definitely have a new subscriber!

Great stuff. But here comes my tip. Whatever bag you have, regularly check on its contents. It is just as important as having the right stuff in the bag. If it is out of date, (say, a medication), you need to replace it. It also goes with a 'mental audit.' That is to say, if you have not used the item in the last (say) five years, out it goes. Short of that, it is always good to know where everything is and so, even in the half-darkness, you can go straight to it. This is one of the key things that people forget to mention about Go Bags. You can never find the dog leash, the padlock, and the jumbo packet of condoms, just at the very moment you need them.

One of the better EDC videos lots of good ideas. Thanks!

Brilliantly presented and well thought out. Several takeaways thank you

Those Tide packs are lifesavers when travelling. I might get a Grayl filter-see if it makes a difference drinking water in South America.

I get it to carry a tarp. There are many useful ways to apply a tarp for survival. What I don't understand is why almost every video they never mention a LifeTent or Mylar sleeping bags? If taken care of, Mylar can be used for extended periods of time, and Mylar takes less space, lighter, and for heat retention or waterproof, they are a perfect example of survival essentials

Best EDC video I've seen in a long time. Great work.

Love to see it. I just grabbed the antero 2.0 for my edc

Good gear and very thought provoking I carry a bandana and a lock but the short leash seems sturdier might carry both .

Great assortment of practical items that you would actually find useful. Curious about the trauma shears being TSA approved. Id love to bring a pair but hate the thought of losing it to a sloppy agent. The crappy thing is the TSA agent has final say on any item.

Good load out, I would add a trash bag.

Nice, not focused on gear and selling, but the function and objective. Nice!

Love Kifaru gear its top tier gear for sure. Got 3 packs the tailgunner is my day pack

Thing on scissors, if you carry it on the plane it might be seized internationally. Checked is always fine but I’ve had medical shears and tiny scissors from multitools like leather man and victorinox seized. Sometimes they let you through, sometimes they don’t. Even with a full explanation.

Your the better part of fieldcraft survival.

Awesome breakdown! Thanks!

Excellent review. Building a new pack now!

Exactly what Ive been looking for. I travel for a living so I always figured if my ultimate goal was to get home . To my home id need to carry more than just a bug out bag or edc tho. Maybe like an inch bag if vehicles aren't an option

Thank you for sharing. Definitely will use some of your ideas.

Hey Kevin, You didn't ask, but here's a suggestion for a video to make. You mentioned at the end that you had a means to make fire, build a shelter, etc. How about a video showing how you'd do it with exactly the things you had here plus your normal EDC? Like a simulated SHTF situation. Thanks!

Never thought of using a carabiner as... something else. Cheers for that mate.

Garmin InReach! Love mine phenomenal emergency product and fun too.

Wise setup, thanks

Very similar contents for my travel bag. The dog leash is a good one. I've been using a bandana in that role.

Excellent setup!

Great video love these types of videos gives better ideas to what to pack what to not. But the leash and lock questionably strange😂

To my surprise and amusement, when I wrote a list and compared to my bag, i discovered that they were the same. Felt like all the practice and experience becoming a blessing.

Very eye opening. Good info to have.

Add a P-51 can opener. Tiny and cheap, but if you need it like I have in the past, a game changer.

The grail water bottle is $100 😂. I love how expensive prepping becomes.

Great tip on not showing your keys. A lot of people don't know how easy it is to cut a matching key from a picture/video.

Great video. Kevin’s the 🐐

Thank you

Love this video. Love the channel. Also had my first press of the Fieldcraft Survival coffee from BRCC today. Damn fine cup of Joe!

Thank you ❤

I’m surprised there wasn’t more snacks Kev! Gotta get more of the trail mix from class!

Nice I'm about to travel from ohio to texas and back I'll double check my pack before we head out and ill keep this video in mind

That’s a solid and sensible edc.

Kifaru has the best packs! I use the Door Gunner and Urban Ruck 2.0 for my EDC packs.

Dude, love your book!

I keep the duct tape on old hotel card keys. When I'm not as limited for space I have a couple with wide Gorilla Tape, 1" gorilla tape, and electrical tape.

Love the video. Great information 👍 for sure!

Good video. Would like to see more!

I love watching these kind of videos.

Fun fact: "Aviator gloves" aka "Nomex Gloves" are also issued to 19K M1 Armor Crewmen (tankers) and M2 Bradley Crewman (cav scouts) as well as Paladin crew (artillery). It's not just aviators that are issued them. They wear out *fast* on armored vehicles though due to the non-slip surfaces embedded in the CARC paint which acts like sandpaper. That's why we were also issued standard black leather gloves. Shooty-shoot bad guys with 120mm tank rounds? NOMEX gloves. Doing literally anything else? Black leather gloves. I just keep a pair of GI-issued black leather gloves either on me in the field or in the vehicle as they work great for GP work gloves as well as fire handling.

Great info thank you!

Great vid and load out

Great job my friend. I even carry a big magnifying glass for fire. The lock and carabiner- brilliant, easy! Gives you the Ability to improvise. I will subscribe. Thanks for not being full of common sense fluff. Just looking at the contents makes you go over unexpected scenarios in your mind.👍👍 Each item has a Use! Great job

Great video, you can tell you have adventure traveled a lot…

THANKS! Nice light kit! ??? next time please provide list of items in description ! Saves us time having to look up each one on the googles! LOL!

Damn those mini tide cleaners i love the idea

Great video good advice

Great info, thank you✌🏻✌🏻🇺🇸🇺🇸

Excellent presentation!

Great video! Took me way too long to 'get' the whole dog leash thing. That's great!

Great kit

Wrapping the duct tape around a bic lighter is a great idea also✌️

I wouldn't yet know what to do with some of those items but this video is so badass!

That was awesome man! I love the multi use carabiner and the leash and the padlock would definitely co.e in handy as well in a stressful situation. That Grayl set up is absolutely amazing! Is it the bigger or smaller Grayl bottle and where did you get the nesting cup for it? Again brother, this content is awesome!!

I also have two big battery chargers fully charged wherever I go. You said it yourself your phone is your main communication.

I do like your videos, thanks!

I was surprised that I already carry many of the items in this bag. Might have to get that ti Grayl next.

very useful gear! congrats

Great video.

One more point is that if you don't monitor email or are local to the community that you're in you probably WON'T be aware of any boil water advisories pushed out to the public. In Metro areas these BWA are very common.

great vid

My head is swimming after seeing and listening.

Great display of essential gear. So, where is your bivy, tarp & stakes for wilderness. I would suggest a down or synthetic sweater as well.

That was interesting. As a scrap hauler, mine is a little different. But that's because I;m only at most, 300 miles from home. However, if it's on foot, that is a long way to go.

Love this

I live in Holly Springs I am coming to visit next month, I can not believe you are 45 minutes from me in NC.

Excellent!

Good stuff

Super surprised you don't travel with a rip stop bag. I'd imagine if you're worried about key copying, people slicing the back of your bag when it's on your back would be a consideration.

"Screech-banshee", love it!!! 🤣🤣🤣

got some cool ideas thanks

I listened to you on Joe Rogan and just started watching your firearms training videos. I have watched hundreds of other tactical videos on all different peoples pages. You by far are a natural teacher and I got so much info from it. Things I have seen on other pages I thought were right but now know are wrong. Keep it up I can’t imagine how many people are learning in detail from you.

Great video great pack ty

Darn good stuff.

I would add a few chemlights for a power outage situation, cheap to purchase and saves your batteries in flashlights if you are just hanging out in hotel room or camp

Awesome 😎

Good show

Amazing load out! If you have a written list with links, that would be absolutely awesome.

I understand this is as carry on for inside the US. I travel internationally and even intercontinental. In some countries that scissors won't fly. The rest seems to be a good load out..

Great video! So refreshing to see wired earbuds! So many clueless people out there who use wireless ear buds! Same sheep who use TikTok and have Facebook on their phones. Absolutely, the easiest way into your phone and personal data is via wireless buds!!!
