I ask this because I just finished packing a pocket sized mini first aid kit, using supplies from our full size home kit. I’m sure people will mostly agree with the contents I packed, but does anyone have any other suggestions?
This is the kit I packed today, should I try to add anything else? There’s not much space left, but I can probably stuff a couple other flat packet items in there, so am I like missing anything obvious that might fit?
I’m not about to put metal tools in this kit, only to find they somehow puncture or damage the contents of the kit.
I do have a separate multi-tool that I carry in a different pocket though, so loosely speaking, I have something of equivalent tools readily available. 👍
Tourniquet? If that ever becomes necessary, I’ll quickly cut my shirt and make something positive happen.
Short won’t really do it.
Medical scissors don’t puncture.
Did you check the link I posted?
I don’t think there’s even any room for any sort of mechanical devices.
I do keep a multi-tool in a different pocket on me at basically all times, so if cutting is necessary, I more or less got that covered anyways.
Yup. I made one about the same size with a tourniquet strapped to the side and a small blunt scissors to safely cut away clothing fast.
