Classic Safari Hiking/Camping/Explorer Outdoor Kit (6 Pieces)

We like being out of doors, and we like exploring, so when the opportunity arose to try out some "outdoorsy" type stuff, I was very happy to give some of them a go. And while we're not experienced, or even regular, outdoors folks, we found Classic Safari's 6-Piece Outdoor Kit perfectly adequate for the occasional adventurer!When one is out on their own, one usually has to make due with whatever you happen to pack in your pockets or backpack. Rarely do we think about what could happen should venture too far astray or make a left at that fork instead of a right. With most of the gear packed into this kit, you could make due for a bit of time while you find your way back to where you meant to go. You get:-A small set of binoculars with a 8x21 magnification that fold up very compactly for easy carry, and are pretty clear. They have a rubberized no-slip grip, lanyard and rubberized eye relief as well, and they even thought to include a small cleaning cloth!-Next you have a plastic liquid-filled lensatic compass. It held north pretty well, as evidenced by Hubby's Casio Pro-Trek watch that was significantly more expensive than this set.-You get a "Swiss Army"-style multi-tool also, with 11 tools (straight blade, file, awl, sawblade, can opener, scissors, flat and phillips screwdrivers, corkscrew and one that for the life of me I could not get to open!), with common tools one might need on a day-to-day basis.-There's also a 9-bulb LED flashlight that runs on 3 AAA batteries and has a rubberized tailcap on/off switch. Sadly the batteries are not included, and the light from this flashlight is pretty anemic, even in total darkness, but it beats being stuck in pitch-black, right?-Lastly there's a magnesium flint firestarter that, while appreciated, gave us a heck of a time generating a spark. I wouldn't want to depend on this in an emergency, but it's better than nothing.All in all, the kit is pretty basic and would be a superb gift for a Boy Scout, or occasional nature walker that might not think to grab more than a water bottle before leaving. And they are better than being stuck out there with nothing, and in a pinch might even save your life. The canvas pack and webbed-nylon belt hold everything well, except the side pouches that things can slip out if one were to move around jarringly. I think the pricing is fair for the quality you get, and while none of these tools are close to professional grade, they do let you know which ones you'd use and certainly want to upgrade. And I can't say enough about SKIVU, the company that sells this kit. My first kit came missing the 11-tool "Swiss Army" type knife, and they expedited a whole new kit to me. That's a company that stands behind their products. There's a lot to like in this kit and think if you give them a try you'll find a lot you like too!I received the above product(s) free of charge from SKIVU. I am not obligated to provide a positive or favorable review, just my honest opinion. My review is based on my experience with the product and/or brand, which may differ from yours.
