    Abstract: A survival kit is disclosed which provides multiple survival tools. The kit has at least two dog tag survival tools which are removably suspended from a user's neck by a necklace. The necklace has a suspension cord with a length of paracord braided about the outer surface of the suspension cord. The paracord can be un-braided for use as a survival tool. One dog tag has a saw attached to a long edge thereof and another dog tag has a ferrocerium or flint rod attached to a long edge. The dog tags are made of thick aluminum or stainless steel such that it is virtually impossible to bend the dog tag using one's hands. This permits the ferrocerium or flint rod to be struck with the saw to provide sparks for starting fires. A magnifying lens or, optionally, a button compass is provided in the dog tag carrying the ferrocerium or flint rod. The dog tags are provided with an elastic sheath/cover to prevent noise, to protect them and for stealth purposes.
