Equip 2 Endure's video: How To Build A Survival Fire Kit

A fire kit is one of the most critical elements you need in any of your kits (72 hour kit, bug out bag, get home back, etc, etc). This is because it addresses one of the "Core 4" components of survival—1) Shelter, 2) Water, 3) Food, and 4) FIRE/ENERGY. We teach that the base five things you need in any survival kit are BRICS (Blade, Rope, Ignition, Container, Shelter). A fire kit is the "I" in BRICS. [We prefer the BRICS mnemonic device over others (like LIVES or 5 C's) because it's easy to remember and has a strong mental image (pack BRICS in your bag).] In this episode Rusty walks through different fire ignition options, tinder options, and gives his opinion on what makes a great fire kit.
