Waterproof Survival Guides/Pamphlets.

I was looking around at some new things that we just got in at work and came across these. We've had them on and off over the past couple years, but I never really thought much about it.   After looking through one today I thought that they actually are pretty nice little guides covering different topics from knots to edible plants.  They're waterproof so they might be pretty good to throw in a pack for reference should the need arise.

Nice, where can you get them? Also, I think the best, honest answer is knowledge weighs nothing. I learned many edible plants(and poisonous ones, probably actually more important), as well as ran through the SAS survival guide over a couple of months, practicing over and over what was in there as much as possible. I think the less gear you carry, the better.

Check the bookstores or any of the outdoor places near where you live. You are correct but you have to start somewhere and I think these books are a pretty good start.

Can you post some more info on these guides? Hard to tell specifics from pics if trying to order. Thanks for the heads up about them, look like good guides and the waterproof will be helpful

[gjohnsoniv]

Yeah, no problem. They're called "Duraguides," and each one is folded over several times with different sections of the topics. Like with combat first aid or first aid on one page it will say something like the necessary components, and then the next page will have the steps to treat say bleeding. Or in something like the case of the knots it shows the different steps.

Thanks.

And wow, there are a bunch of these on amazon.

I'll probably be getting a few since I'm new to the whole survival / prep thing.

[gjohnsoniv]

You're welcome.  Yeah they have a ton of them. Knots, camping, fishing, boating, anything else you want.
