Just received an Echo-Sigma Get Home bag as my very first preparation kit. I loaded it with a fair amount of upgrades and am very pleased with how it turned out. Does anyone else have experience with this company's product?

the multitool, flashlight, and knife dont look too fucking bad, but you could have done better shopping literally anywhere else, leatherman waves go for barely more than 50-70 bucks, you can get hand forges knives better than the SOG for barely more than 50 bucks as well. i would rather have a headlamp over a flashlight any day as well.

Damn you got jewed hard OP. Most of that kit can be made from Harbor Freight for under $20.

I always wonder what it would be like if people like OP actually had to use their gear.

Can you imagine op trying to gather firewood with his shitty SOG hacket that breaks on the very first hit?

Imagine when he has to somehow create a fire with that shitty fucking bear grylls ferrous rod and then imagine how hilarious it would be when he realizes that MRE tastes like pure shit

Imagine when he sets up that tent and realizes that he paid $500 for this.

Imagine when he has to take a shit and then realizes that his $500 kit doesn't have a single thing for him to wipe his ass with.

This. I've been buying little things here and there for years, and this year I realized I don't really need anything else right now. I'm slowly making the move from car-camping and day-hikes to multi-day backpacking trips, so I'm replacing some of my stuff with lighter/smaller things. So I'm still somewhat excitedly buying new things, but I feel your pain, Anon. I enjoy that new stuff feeling, and any time I have to figure out how best to use something new it's even more fun. Doing it all at once would have been a huge disappointment.
