Possibles pouch

What do you lot keep in your possibles pouches or bags? Pics if possible too!

Gary · 10-09-2006, 11:11

I'll do some pictures later but basically I use one of my LoneWolf pouches and pack as follows (off the top of my head) ................

Rear Section- First aID.

Small bottle of Steridex - hand and tool cleaning + fire
Small bangage with safety pins
Various sizes plasters
Pain killers
Vaseline
Cotton wool (tampons)
Small bottle of Betadyne
Small vial Pot permang
Strips of Sutures
Gauze pads
Cleanizing wipes
Tweezers
CasCard

Front Section - Possibles

Single strand brass wire
Paracord
Wetfire blocks
Ministeel and sharpeniong stone
Matchsafe
Button compass
Microlight red torch
Whistle
Spare fire steel

Thats about it I think. First aid items are my own preference for a cuts kit with a few other bits and bobs, the possibles themself should reflect your understanding and skill level but regardless of what you put in it remember the idea of the possibles pouch is that you carry it regardless of what other items you carry or wear so in theory if you lost everything else but your belt you'd have your pouch and knife

I don't have a proper pouch at the moment, I've tried using stuff in the past but they haven't worked out - I'm thinking of having one made or making my own. What I have carried in a pouch before though are:

SAK, LED light, Whistle together on a string
Firesteel
An emergency sheet
Cord
A small sharpening stone
I've got a small pocket FAK with plasters, gauze, dressings, tweezers, sutures etc.
Snare Wire
Hooks and line

You got a pic of yours Gary?

Gary · 11-09-2006, 11:50

pouch is the LoneWolf pouch on the website Scotty - as for the contents sorry mate not at the moment.

But I'm away for 9 days starting friday running courses so if I get bored I'll take some.

JP also carries one of these pouches so you probably saw it at the WG.

Nothing wrong with making your own pouch either Scotty - my favourite possibles pouch was one I made myself and gave to a wee irish buddy of mine years ago!!

Scotty · 11-09-2006, 11:55

Ah yeah the one with the 2 sections, looked pretty solid.

Gary · 11-09-2006, 12:23

works for me matey!!

fiachdubh · 11-09-2006, 17:12

It's still in use. Cheers Gary.

It's always packed and ready to go with a small first aid kit, opinel, tinder pouch and small Ferro rod.

I am also making up a small survival kit with a few snares, fishing kit etc. This will only go in once I have tested and used every item.

I didn't bring it on my trip during the summer as I was tring to safe weight and I regretted it as it really is useful bit of kit and I hated having my trouser pockets full of stuff after we camped

I hope this winter to finish my own possibles bag out of some canvas I have just for the extra few bits real lightweight over nigthers.

Glad to hear it James - that old bag has done some sterling service eh!!

fiachdubh · 12-09-2006, 10:53

It's tough little pouch. The repair I have made too it is the cord that held the toggle in place had to replaced. Other then that it's perfect.
