What is a possibles pouch?
During the 18th century many woodsman and military scouts carried a possibles pouch. Within that pouch they carried what they needed for the day; similar to what our SOF operators would carry in a SERE kit. Back then the typical pouch contained black powder, powder measurer, flint and steel, lead balls and patch, a patch knife, and a skinning knife, as well as other personal items.
The possibles pouch that Malcolm over at The Hidden Woodsmen has designed looks much like a toiletry bag, but has much more versatility than just that. When I travel I use this pouch as a toiletry bag and any other small items that I need to take with me.
The Possible Pouch can also be used to carry your ammunition to the range.

The pouch can also be used a a small vehicle medical bag/kit. I’m actually thinking about ordering another one for just that (in his orange color).

The pouch also contains a nice sturdy handle to carry and a small loop to clip a carabiner too. This could possibly come in handy if used as a small med bag. If you need to run with the bag and need both hands you could clip a carabiner to the small loop, and then clip it to your belt or belt loop.
