Share the contents of your smallish EDC kits. This one weighs in at 7.25 ounces and is basically the size of a deck of cards. As you can see, it’s got a little bit of everything. Jeff
I don't have a pic, but just about every day I have an Altoids based FAK in my left front pocket. It generally has: > a good assortment of 'band-aids'; > some small one use packets of first aid cream, anti-itch cream, and the like; > small zip lock (the size you 'might' use to carry around a daily dosage; I bought them at Walmart) each containing one of the following: >> 81 mg aspirin >> 'Di-Gel' type tablets >> I've got some others in there but don't recall... (I need to do my annual inventory of my FAK's!) > a SAK classic > a Fresnel lens magnifier > Uncle Bill's Sliver Gripper Tweezers The whole thing is aided in keeping closed with a 'ranger band' I made from a bike inner tube; also keeps the case from sliding out of pocket depending on which pants I'm wearing!

I don’t know if mine is considered smallish, but it is always in a cargo pocket Flashlight and SAK (or multitool) in to slot pockets. Normal I carry a smaller SAK and have a mini clipper lighter in the same slot, but I’m doing a challenge for another forum so it is a Champion or SwissChamp for the month and a Zippo in pocket. The SAK also always has a firefly in the toothpick slot and needle in pin slot with thread wrapped around bottom of corkscrew. Inside: - small ziploc FAK with 2 iodine wipes, 2x2 gauze, a few bandaids, streri-strips, first aid ointment, small tube benadryl gel and some otc meds - about 2ft of duct tape wrapped around credit card size fresnel lens - a couple individual wrapped dental floss packs and a finger toothbrush - a couple packs of Goody powder - a couple individually wrapped antibacterial hand wipes - coin towel - single use super glue - sliver gripper tweezers - quart size ziploc with 2 water purification tablets - couple pieces rite in rain paper and mini pen
I keep my kit in a Chums Surf Shorts wallet. In the outside pocket I have Visine eye drops, nail clippers, and a mini-prybar. Sometimes the mini-prybar gets switched out for my Victorinox Cadet or Spyderco Ladybug hawkbill. On the inside I have: Bandaids including finger tip and knuckle bandaids 2 x 2 gauze Slip N Snip scissors Blistex lip ointment Tylenol in a tiny Ziploc baggie Spare work ID badge Edit in response to jds1: No, I'm not a surfer, but I do kayaking including in the surf, stand up paddle boarding in the bay, swimming just for fun in pools and open water, and I used to be a pool lifeguard.
Simpleton Sam for me. 1 tool/knife, 1 fire starter, 1 flashlight, and 1 handkerchief. The chapstick is a bonus out here in the desert. Too dry. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Check Amazon. I think I bought either 3 or 7 or 10 of them as a single item? Each came with a sleeve... They're only plastic of course but for this sort of application just dandy. Am Yisrael Chai! Moshe ben David
Not sure if this counts as "kits" ... Keyring with ThruNite Ti3 AAA flashlight, Victorinox Manager (Mini-SAK), small whistle in right front pant pocket. Bandana with two pairs Nitril gloves and a 2"x2" gauze pad - as improvised trauma kit. One band-aid and a small alcohol cotton swap - as first aid kit.
