What has it got in it's pocketses? Thread Mk2

[Toddy]

Wayland did one of these threads a long while ago, I replied then that mostly my pocketses are a handbag, and now Drew is doing a daypack list one where folks aren't allowed anything in their pockets; however there's a few of us insisting that pockets are the way to go too
We shan't derail the daypack thread, so this one is simply,

"What has it got in it's pocketses ?"


The jacket I had on yesterday has...
2 £ coins
Tissues
San ren mu folding pocket knife
2 strips of green garden velcro
1 metre of OD paracord
Rat pack matches sachet ?? no idea why that's there.
A thimble
A folded tato
3 kirby grips
Some seeds.....look like out of a pinecone
Tiny wee piptoporus betulina

cheers,
Toddy

The assorted detritus could be critical if one were in survival type scenario....but since we're bushcrafting, I reckon my assorted detritus would do for firelighting or spreading seeds around

Stringmaker, that over key TrueUtility gizmo ? Is it worth the money ? I'm thinking ahead for Christmas stocking ideas, tbh., but with so many menfolks in the family I run out of ideas for bits and pieces that are actually useful.

cheers,

Hi Toddy,

It is one of those "occasional use in odd places" items I find; just yesterday I used the cutting function when I needed to get a label off something and I was in a car park. I have also used the bottle opener and screwdriver functions too when I was nowhere near "normal tools".
It weighs virtually nothing and sits right over a Yale key so adds no bulk to a keyring and is many little tools in one. I think its a clever little item and worth a fiver yes.

Here is what I always carry in my pockets when I am out in the woods:

In my right pocket I carry the Mora #2 knife you see above. I keep it in a leather sheath that I got from another knife. The knife together with the sheath weighs 4.0 oz. The Mora #2 is my favorite knife in terms of blade and handle design. Its only downside is that it is not a full tang knife, so it has some strength limitations.


In the other pocket I carry a small pouch (actually from my Kovea stove), in which I keep a Fenix E01 flashlight, a mini BIC lighter, and three Altoids Smalls tins. One of the tins holds my repair kit with a few fishing hooks thrown in on the bottom. The second tin holds some medications I commonly use and water purification tablets. The third tin contains tinder (waxed jute twine) and matches. On the pouch itself a have attached a mini compass. The whole pouch weighs 4.5 oz.

In my back pocket I also have a bandanna.

Is that an Aurora Fire Starter just above the handle of the Mora?

I am tempted by one of those; what do you think of it?

 

[Corso]

looks like a Fenix torch
