Review: Quality stuff - It is amazing how much of meaningful, quality stuff can be packed into such a small tin! This is a MUST have for anybody who hikes, travels, does bush-craft or finds him/herself in emergency survival situation. It contains a list of contents and clear explanation what things are for. Compass works fine. The tin is small enough, you can put it into the jacket or even trousers pocket. It is made of durable material. This little tin IS a real thing. Money well-spent. I do recommend.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: does the compass work?**
A: Hi there. Yup. The compass works well , as does all the kit in the tin. In my opinion for the price this is the best edc tin on the market. Hope this helps .

**Q: Is there space for additions?**
A: Yes, but strictly small items. You can overpack  these kits, which rather defeats the point of the exercise. Personally I would stick to adding a few matches & a striker for same, and cramming cotton wool into any odd corner.

**Q: is the glow stick reusable**
A: Hi,No, it's a one-shot snap and shake glow stick providing between three and five hours of light.Best Regards,Luke BawdonPolymath Products

**Q: What metal is the tin ?**
A: Hi,The tins are made from lacquered steel, for long life and durability.Kind Regards,Luke BawdonPolymath Products

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Superb
*by M***S on 22 August 2014*

A good quality tin which packs a lot of content for the size. Ideal as a backup, I carry one in each of my work bags where I am limited on space. The snare wire was used within one day of the kit arrival to reach into a confined space and recover a key that had been dropped. I've added a square of duct tape to mine affixed inside the lid and on the base. I have also halved two tinder sticks from the polymath EDC kit and these sit comfortably within the tin ready to light with the enclosed firesteel. The small length of paracord is of good quality. Given this is genuine paracord it'll actually give 8m of cordage if you separate the strands. This itself also makes for fire tinder if needed. This is a small tin... It fits into the small change pocket or a pair of jeans. With so much packed into such a small item there is little to fault. All in - a great product for the price and rather useful day to day
