Just a tip-any bleeding that requires a tourniquet will be profuse so your tourniquet should be within easy reach. the last thing you'll want is having to open a bunch of stuff to get to it while you or someone else is bleeding out.

You need a watch cap! Even in warmer climates it can get pretty cool at night. I carry two. A neutral color one in case of a situation where I might need to blend in or not be noticed. And then a blaze orange (high visibility) one in case of a situation where I needed to be rescued. both are lite weight and flatten TO take up very little space. Both are wool.....

Great video! I use the smaller 511 Tactical Moab 6. I use mine for more urban EDC. My EDC is very similar to yours. I carry extra contacts, my iPad mini, extra cables, a power bank, and my planner. I carried it fully loaded fir a long walk and it can become uncomfortable. Overall I'm very impressed with the Moab 6, as it holds everything I need daily and attaches perfect to my bug out bag. Hope to see more of your videos soon.

I find this EDC bag to be interestingly geared towards worst-case scenarios (i.e. zombie apocalypse) and not for a more likely scenario like flood, massive road closures, weather issues, etc. My EDC has a battery pack for my phone as well as multiple cords for various phone types just in case. Communication is key in an emergency and those quarters will serve less purpose than a battery charging pack. I also keep both cash and a prepaid VISA in my EDC. Best to be prepared for any type of money need.

Use freezer bags for storing things that you don't want to get wet. These bags are more sturdy and more waterproof. The other thing I have done is learn how to make paracord bracelets and key chains. I have the key chains made at differing lengths and have them attached to all my bags. Paracord is like duct tape it has a million uses.

I like that you don't have too much redundant stuff. Gear is nice, but so is speed and agility. In that spirit I would read that survival guide over and over till you don't need to carry it any more. It maybe too late to start reading when a emergency happens. You didn't make the common mistake of filling the bag to it's bursting point. It's good to have room for what you might pick up later. Thanks for sharing.

So I like versatility and efficiency. I'm very practical with what I carry and I've spent years changing what I carry. It's (my EDC) evolved in size and weight over the years and from personal experience. I went from a small sling bag to a 20 liter to a 29 liter back to the 20 liter pack. The bulk of my EDC is medical stuff (I'm an EMT in an urban environment) and that hangs out on the two sides attached via a molle system in two pouches; one is a boo boo kit, the other is heavy trauma. My EDC is also my get homebag and when school is in session, it's also my school bag. Three in one! Stuff like extra pens, a notepad, wet wipes (I use wet ones or dude wipes) are practical for a school bag, a get home bag, and an EDC bag. What my point is that everyone's EDC is going to be different. If I wore glasses I'd have an extra pair for emergencies and/ or a repair kit. If you carry a water filtration system, cool, I started carrying a bobble water bottle (it has a carbon filter in it). It's all in the preference and your environment. And yes, I get made fun of at work sometimes for having nail clippers and a sewing kit made from an old pill bottle, up until I get asked if I have a certain item and I save that person's day. It's like I tell everyone: I don't like surprises. And you can't go wrong with having an extra pair of socks with you! Socks are just one of those things that in my opinion, everyone should have an extra pair lying around.

They had a really good idea about keeping a razor blade and a handcuff key under a large bandaid on your body so if they take your clothes or something you will still have a razorblade to get out of rope or duct tape and a handcuff key for handcuffs. pretty cool

I like it. Very nice. A couple of suggestions. I would move your bandaids and such to a smaller Snack size ziplock baggie. That'll help contain them and protect them from any moisture that gets in the bag. I would beef it up a little bit by adding a few things to it such the ten pill travel size tube of Aleve, one of Advil, one of Tylenol, one of Dramamine, as well as some allergy meds and anti-diarrheal. I tend to use mine all the time when I'm out and about. Never know when a back pain or a headache will crop up. Also, good to have when you've got a buddy suffering as well. Also, I would move the $20 cash to the little coin tin that you have. Put it under the coins and the clippers (great addition btw). That puts the emergency funds all in one place and it gets the cast out of that see through ziplock. Lastly, you've got the shemagh and you're right, those come in super handy. However, I would also add a few actual bandana's. Those are very handy to have for a variety of purposes as well. Plus, they are super lightweight. When washing only use Hot water...do not use fabric softener, or detergent, or bounce sheets. When you're wiping away the sweat with one that stuff goes straight into those open pores and irritates. I know I said lastly but, one more recommendation. Some sort os survival blanket. They are super compact and weigh almost nothing. They can come in handy in certain situations. Great video. This is the third or fourth one of yours I've watched and I enjoyed the other two. So, you've got a new subscriber.

Overall, I think it's a very good setup. What I would HIGHLY recommend to ad to it, is a micro USB charger. Those things are very useful. Powerbank is also good. Not as important, but still good to have is a simple knife sharpener. A small diamond plate is no bigger than a credit card, and can come in quite handy. Not that useful in urban scenario, but still good addon is a wire saw. It's shitty, cuts rather poorly and is easy to break, but doesn't take much space (can fit in a matchbox almost) and is a much better cutter than a folding knife. And the essential. Crucial. THE MOST IMPORTANT PART... Toilet paper. I can't count the number of times a roll of toilet paper from my bag saved my ass (literally).

I'm still piecing together other parts to add into the bag. I've hiked with this bag. walked the perimeter of Stanley Park in Vancouver, BC with it.

Jerky, nuts/trailmix and a dehydrated meal pack should give you over a days worth calories if you ever get stuck out there plus you stated your needs are more urban based than outback...

+City Prepping i use SouthOrd, a little more expensive (American made, stainless steel) but worth it. well if you don't mind beans and rice for a week or two so you can purchase an item you more than likely will never use (me). also, helps to get a clear or cut-away lock to practice on to so you can see what the hell you're actually doing in there ;)

That seems like too much stuff at first, but then most of the time it's riding in the car and you only touch it if you need something. If you had to carry it far every day you'll probably whittle it down to just what fits in a belt pack. I was getting ready to say you forgot gloves, but finally you mentioned them. They're like shoes for your hands. :D

Glow sticks seem to be a bad choice as far as I can see. They are one shot, short lived, and only have a good shelf life of a few years. Furthermore it is not obvious whether they are good or have been used. The amount of light you get for the weight is quite poor. A tiny keychain light will give more light for longer, be smaller & lighter, and is waterproof & fireproof in an explosive atmosphere. Batteries will easily outlast glow sticks for shelf life.

Glowsticks are for keeping an area illuminated without having to hold the source. Dropping a glowstick around your chosen camp site is way easier than holding a flashlight and trying to start a fire. That and they make great markers for if you are in a tunnel system and need to know which direction to go.
@seanb3516

Mason Kelly Okay however I would throw back the short shelf life that they have (about 2-3 years and the hydrogen peroxide in the glass tube decomposes past being useful) and the fact that they can be accidentally activated. In fact you don't know if it will work until you activate it. They are of course very reliable these days. The sticks are also dependant on temperature. A fun demo is to get a large plastic bowl of very hot water and a bowl of ice water. Activate the glow stick and move it from one bath to the other. The light output changes dramatically. This doesn't happen with LED lights under the same conditions. I'm willing to bet you could find comparably priced disposable, sealed, miniature and colored LED lights at FastTech (online).

great video as usual! how about some cordage? i try to keep a bit in my PSK pouch, as well as extra in the EDC bag... one space blanket is a little light on cover, the contractor bag is a good idea, & possibly add another mylar blanket or bivy, perhaps even a large piece of clear plastic sheeting to fashion a shelter... the klean kanteens are my favorite, but better to have plain stainless than the colored ones in case you have to use in fire to disinfect water, make char, food, or medicine... the multi-tool is an essential piece of kit with saw, pliers, etcetera, but i wouldn't feel comfortable if it was my only cutting tool, i regularly carry a folder in my pocket, & a small fixed blade like a neck knife in the EDC bag as well... finally, extra clothes, somebody already mentioned socks, but a long sleeve shirt & long johns can come in very handy... the water bladder compartment on back of the 5.11 moab 10 & rush 12 & 24 works great for stuff that can be folded flat like clothes & cover/shelter material... the EDC for me is as much get home bag, or 12-24 hour emergency kit... i also use the moab 10 with the rush 24, the 24 is basically for additional items, that combined with the moab 10 load, make a complete short term BOB (3 days to 3 weeks), the short term BOB makes up a large part of the car kit... modular & complimentary :) the long term BOB is much bigger tho, & based more on extended wilderness survival...

Switch that RAT TQ out for a CAT-TQ. More reliable, more effective. General non-steroidal anti-inflammatory's like ibuprofen or aspirin would be good too.

First off I have to agree on the tourniquet placement. It needs to be somewhere that you can access it and apply it all under 10 seconds ideally. Second recommendation is to have some type of firearm to be able to defend yourself. When we think bug out bag we think self- reliance. If we need to rely on ourself for medical care, food and shelter what makes you think we wouldn’t need to rely on our own security? You are carrying around life sustaining equipment and in a true bug out scenario you are a target. People will go to great lengths to save themselves and their loved ones even if it means hurting you to do it. So maybe including EDC weapon into your lifestyle wouldn’t be a bad idea.

Enjoyed the video, I do have one suggestion though. If you prefer to use your workbench, place your camera high and not in front at all times. The shadowing in the foreground is distracting and with the camera high, all your efforts will be maximized, and the bag itself with its contents can actually be seen. I hope this helps and thanks for sharing...

The other week a coworker asked me what I carried in there, I had to really strain to think about what I keep in there... a highlighter, pen, Sharpie, USB and Lightning cables... pretty unimpressive sounding list of stuff. Definitely not "tactical" and nothing I could survive off of for 72 hours.

You should think about making sure your face mask is an N95 respirator. It blocks 95% of small particles and it's the mask we use around those with TB. Those with facial hair and small children may not get an adequate fit. Due to its filter you will notice more effort is needed to draw in air, so people with respiratory conditions will have to be cautious.
