Not a bad kit for a last minute kit. Certainly a good reason to not wait to put this type of kit together if it is something that you need to have in the area you live in. Certainly recommend some additional food for 72 hours. A SOL Bivy Sack or Emergency Blanket would be a huge help for the shelter. Trash bag is certainly a huge asset. Bandanas are the ultimate tool, I suggest though making sure you are purchasing a cotton one, I have found too many of them that are polyester lately and those are not nearly as useful and will melt near a fire. One thing to keep in mind is that your 72 hour kit has to support your entire family or each family member needs their own if they are able to carry it. Again thanks for the videos, keep them coming.

Hello. With more time , one can source and create a overall better kit, and try the gear/supplies out. These supplies would give one more to work with especially with knowledge, skills and exp helping the gear out. The contractor bags are good multi purpose items, and CR keeps some with near by. Something like the water filter shown next to the freeze dry food in video could help and pairs well with water bottle and cup. As well, this cup could use a lid ( foil or lid of a larger can) Shoes/boots, PJ and cotton balls, safety vest, head lamp, wool blanket, radio, extra charging cables, and whistle are also good to consider for one's emergency preparedness bag. take CaRe
That kit is not bad! However, if I may make some suggestions, I would swap out that Ozark Trail knife with the Camillus straight edge one, add a Fiskars pruning saw, add a survival blanket for more shelter, add a water filtration straw and/or water purification tablets. I would also add storm proof matches for fire redundencies. Build your kit based on the 10d's by Dave Canterbury and you will be good to go!! Hope this is helpful to you!!!
Serrations are not used for batoning. You need a fine edge for batoning. Epoxy that ferro rod in the handle and get a good striker. Should have bought a fine edge one. I'm a prepper and survivalist too. I subscribed 😊👌
