Hey we're still here


I know its been a while since the last post, which is never a good thing. A lot has happened since then. We have added some production capabilities in some new equipment and another sewing machine, its very nice and heavy duty, we can sew anything we need on this one.

We have been doing some testing on products and designs, we have refined and upgraded the original RealSuvival Kit, adding additional colors like Universal digital camo, features like 2 D rings on top of the bag and 1 on the bottom to add flexibility in use. Now you can carry it like a messenger bag with an added optional shoulder strap or use caribiners to clip it to a pack or other item. The fire starter kit bag has been improved a bit with the addition of a D ring providing other options for carrying and securing it.

We have added to the line a product we call "The Scavenger" which is a bag that is used for gathering such things as bark strips, punk wood, and dry fungus for tinder used in fire starting; also the bag can be used to collect food items such as berries, roots, herbs, etc. This makes a nice addition to your camping equipment as it adds lots of convenience. The bags has multiple D rings for attaching a shoulder strap or clipping to a backpack. We will have more on this later. There is a video posted on our YouTube channel.

We have just completed work on a new Enhanced RealSurvival Kit, which has everything the original kit had with the addition of a stainless steel cup and a 32 oz. Nalgene bottle that stores all the kit items. This whole system is carried in a new bag designed just for this purpose. It has D rings for multiple carrying/packing configurations as in the items above. One of the cool things is the solution to a problem that always bothered me about "Bottle style" survival kits, and that was accessibility of retrieving and storing items in the bottle, it was a pain!! We have solved that problem by using "Tabs" which items are contained in and they simply slide in and out of the center of the bottle, very nice. There is a video on this on YouTube as well. As with all the other items this is all top quality dependable stuff.

We also have a nice location, for conducting training, testing products and producing videos. It is up in the canyons near here, and is convenient yet away from people so as to be undisturbed. We look forward to many exciting things coming from there.

We have some other exciting news coming up, so keep watching, thanks!!
