It's pretty slow around Indiana in the winter, so I decided to revise my hone pocket survival kit to make it a little more versatile. Again, the idea was to turn the sheath's hone pocket into a small, but effective, survival kit. The pocket now contains basic items for fire-starting, fishing/gigging, and navigation. Kit includes a firesteel, fatwood, arrowhead/striker, 7' of 100lb. micro cord, Royal Coachman fly, and compass (period correct, of course ). All items are waterproof.
you are right!!! running out of things to do....I load shotgun shells that I will never use... looks pretty cool anyway....100lb....might be a big large for that fly. :-)Rocky

Thanks, but I was going for more than just "looking pretty cool". Hopefully, I'll never need it, but if lost and all I had was this knife, I'd rather have these few items than a sharpening stone.
The fly has a split ring to accept the thicker cord. The fish around here will bite on anything. Bluegill and crappie love this pattern. 100lb cord is multi-use for fishing, constructing a gig with the arrowhead, or general use.
