Hi DJ. Building your own custom BOB is the best. Why? Because you can get the wide variety of supplies and tools in the quality and quantity you want. But then again, you have to ask yourself if you know what your doing. I spent 8 years teaching military survival skills at HAAF. And from what I see available on the internet, most stores don’t know what they need to offer or do not have enough background to know how or what to offer. They are there for the money. Period. My BOB is 72-hour ready for basic survival and then some. My locker box BOB is a full months worth of viable and versatile supplies, food, water and equipment that everyone should have for survival and rescue. No one, I repeat no one, offers the full kit I do! My personal locker box has cost me over $2,400. But thats with weapons, ammo, and gear most people won’t need. Look for S6A online within the next few months. Im a veteran owned, survival specialist at spooler6actual.

I have to agree. Carbon is popular, but it rusts too easily for a survival knife. The amount of care you’d need to spend on it under poor conditions is too high. Consider some of the new high-end like elmax or m390. There are better steels than carbon.
