TIN BOXES
Many of us believe that a good tin box is a cornerstone of any survival kit – an inexpensive investment that makes a big difference. For one, you can build your entire kit in miniature, a mindset that special forces and pilots have long adopted. By starting with the premise that everything must fit into a tin box, you truly inventory your most essential needs. Alternatively, the box can be part of a larger kit where you want to separate the functions of different components.
Excellent Protection
When you store your equipment in a tin box, your items receive excellent protection. The risk of something being dropped, bent, or crushed when you have the box in your pocket or pack is significantly reduced. Your gear is protected from the elements, and you quickly get a good overview of what you need.
Various Materials and Sizes
The boxes we sell come in a few different materials and sizes – from classic simple tin to stainless steel and titanium variants.
Examples of Kits You Can Assemble Yourself with a Tin Box
As with all equipment, your own needs dictate what you carry with you. Here are some ideas to consider:
- EDC kit with pen, paper, knife, flashlight, pry bar, and paracord
- Medications and dressings you frequently use
- Sewing supplies, scissors, and various types of threads like paracord
- Fire starter kit with lighter, fire steel, and tinder
