This Lehman’s pocket survival kit is the compact emergency outfit for one person — sized to fit in a single coat pocket, glove compartment, or daypack rather than dominate a larger bag. The kit covers the three core emergency needs: cutting (a survival knife with a built-in firestarter), miscellaneous essentials (a survival-kit-in-a-can with the small tools experienced outdoors people carry), and fire-starting (a pack of stormproof matches that light wet, in wind, or after immersion).
The kit is designed for the realistic emergency: a hiker turned around in fog, a driver stuck after a snowstorm, a camper whose primary kit got lost or rained out, or a household evacuation where pockets are the only available carry option. Lightweight and compact tools make transport easy — meaning the kit actually rides along on trips rather than being left at home as the gear that ‘might’ come in handy.
For day-hikers, weekend campers, backpackers building a redundant emergency kit, drivers in remote areas, and households assembling go-bags for severe-weather seasons, this is the right scale of starter kit. Pair with the larger Lehman’s survival knife and a fuller emergency-food can for a more complete prep build. Lehman’s catalog standard.
