I bought this because it is a bit larger then the Altoids tin and this has a rubber gasket on the lid as an extra layer of protection from water penetration. Over all this has just about everything you need, I use this as my EDC and carry it in my Mexpediation EDC pocket organizer. I use electric tape around the lid to seal and then use a band of emergency tape to keep it closed and secure. This is not one of the cheap unusable kits that have been around, this is a quality kit and one that I trust.
I added a Nano Striker with some char-cloth and gave the flint and steel to my son for his kit. I also added some zip ties, a micro fiber cloth, paper clips, nail clippers, mole skin, and some gorilla tape. I would highly recommend to open this up taking everything out and repacking it a few times to you get an idea how to pack it. USE YOUR STUFF, that is the biggest problem preppers forget to do is use their stuff. Break your gear out and use it every other month so when SHTF you are familiar enough with it to be effective.
