One treats the injury. The other gets you through the hours after it. Here is every item in each.
Kit 1 of 2
For bleeding, cuts and sprains: 80+ pieces in a black pouch of 7.5 × 4 × 2.4 inches.
Pouch: 7.5 × 4 × 2.4 in, 600D Oxford, double zipper, snap straps on the back, drain hole.
Kit 2 of 2
For light, fire, signal and shelter: 20+ tools in a black pouch of 8 × 6 × 5 inches.
Pouch: 8 × 6 × 5 in, removable patch panel, two-way zipper, MOLLE straps, drain hole.
Both pouches are black 600D Oxford nylon with the same layout, so your hands learn it once. The trauma pouch measures 7.5 × 4 × 2.4 inches, the survival pouch 8 × 6 × 5.
It runs all the way round and opens from either end, so the pouch lies flat like a book.
They lock onto a headrest, a pack or a belt, and come off in seconds.
Elastic loops and pockets hold each tool in the same place every time you open it.
The fabric is water-resistant and a grommet at the base lets water out instead of pooling.
Severe bleeding can turn fatal in minutes. An ambulance can take longer than that, and after a storm or off a trail it can take much longer.
On the road
The first person on the scene is whoever stops. A tourniquet in the door pocket changes what they can do.
On the trail
No bars and fading light. A whistle, a flashlight and a blanket turn a bad night into a wait.
At home
When crews can't get through, the kit in the hall closet is the only kit there is.
Drugstore first-aid box
Shield kits
A windlass tourniquet, a pressure bandage and trauma shears sit in the first loops you see.
MOLLE straps hold it on a headrest, a pack or a belt, so it isn't at home when you need it.
Flashlight, fire starter, whistle, glow sticks and a compass in one pouch.
Both pouches open flat, and every item goes back to the same loop.
Take both kits and the field guide that explains every item is free.

Headrest, door pocket, backpack or belt. The trauma kit in the car, the survival kit by the door.
Lay it flat, read the field guide and try the tourniquet on your own arm.
Every item has its loop, so a gap tells you what to replace.

The trauma kit is for injuries: a tourniquet, a pressure bandage, shears, wraps and 60 adhesive bandages. The survival kit is for the hours after: light, fire, signal, shelter, tools and a small first-aid pocket.
They cover different problems, which is why most people take both.
You need practice more than training. The field guide shows the steps, and we recommend trying it on your own arm once. A short bleeding-control class is worth an hour of anyone's time.
The kit does not replace medical care. Call emergency services first whenever you can.
The survival pouch measures 8 × 6 × 5 inches. The trauma pouch is slimmer: 7.5 × 4 × 2.4 inches. Both strap to MOLLE webbing, a headrest or a belt.
The tools don't. Sterile dressings and alcohol pads carry a date on the packet. Check them once a year and replace what is out of date.
In checked luggage, yes. For a carry-on, check your airline's rules first: the tactical pen, the shears and the wire saw are often refused at security.
A short ebook that walks through every item in both kits: what it is for, when to use it and when not to. It comes free with the Complete Kit and the Family Pair.
