I don´t have a survival tin but a firelighting kit in my cargo pocket.

This is the content and the pouch it´s carried in.
Tube with alcogel. Storm matches. Esbit-tablets. Telescopic blowtube.
Lately I have been contemplating about getting an Opinel #12 saw to add to this kit.

Quite apart from a survival tin the #12 saw is a great little tool as long as you remember that it’s a pull saw. Cuts very fast with narrow kerf.
I have one in my fire pouch together with a 12mm ferro. I use it closed for fire lighting and open on anything that my secateurs can’t cut.

(Mine has a standard knife handle because I rather like the curved saw handle on my Opinel 12 knife)
