Over all your kit is really good.

Just a couple of suggestions, you need some Char cloth or charred punk wood for your fire kit. A tin box will allow you to make more char. I’d consider adding a couple of candle stubs too.

Work on replacing the three tine fork with a more historically accurate two tine fork.

I keep my musket tool in my cartridge box with spare flints. Easier to get to when on the battlefield and need to change a flint or prick the touchhole on the musket.

For your shaving kit, when you can, replace the stubby brush with one that is longer, 18th century shave brushes had long handles. Stick with boar or horse hair. The razor looks like it’s hollow ground, in our period razors were flat ground. There are a few makers who sell them. I really like the scales on your razor though! I like your towel too.

I would consider adding two things that would be needed to maintain the razor. A period whet stone, very fine grit. And a flat razor strop. Leather strap glued to a thin hardwood board. Charge the strop with jewelers rough.
Consider making yourself a housewife from fabric. With a couple of pockets for buttons, thread winders, etc, and a flap of wool for pins and needles. Very period appropriate and they won’t rattle like a tin container. Use the tin for your char box.

I really liked your tin cup and plate! Overall, you have created a very serviceable kit. I like the pouches for keeping things organized and clean. Great job!

Joseph Plumb-Martin’s book was pretty much , we were hungry, and stole some food, we got some poor rations, we had a feast, then hungry the next day, oh we fought a battle, and found some bread the enemy dropped , went home on leave, had dinner

Great use of bags within bags to order and regulate your food and others personal kit ….a cover for cookware is such important thing to stop everything becoming a oily sooty mess.

for a tinder bag go with oil cloth it works better than leather at keeping things dry and  i'd add a  burning lens a charring tin to the fire kit and a fishing kit if you don't have one tucked elsewhere! if you can get it a tin full of pine sap is nice to have along multiple uses for it from first aid to fire starting and making glue!!

The only things that I would add would be a patch knife, a rock of salt and like you already mentioned,  a leather or oil cloth tinder pouch. Maybe an extra would be a small tin like an altoids tin for making and holding char cloth

Not a re enactor, but I look at this haversack, I think of my Scout Troop making something similar for themselves, with most of those items.

Excellent display, a sewing kit in a cloth housewife roll would be good as I believe tins would be hard to find, the musket lock is a ready made tinder box fire lighting tool, and would render a flint and steel kit superfluous?, just put your charred material in the pan and "click". I would have used the "skillet" as a plate. I don,t think forks were as popular as thought and the point of the (pocket knife) might serve as well, hence why carry the matching knife. They tended to boil just about everything so the spoon would be a must, REMEMBER you gotta march nearly everywhere and every ounce counts when you gotta carry it. These are the things I do. Excellent show, cheers.

My feed sack, aka haversack hangs from a tree to keep critters out...food and containers, spices to make food...and fire, small stoves of course.

Ty for sharing

Excellent work and really appreciate your hard work, dedication to camp history….

That’s a well organized haversack kit.

THANKS !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

All good, I would say dump the fork as they were not in general use. Get some tow, or jure tow

Just a guess but I think most soldiers of those days would also carry a small notebook and a pen, and a wet stone / sharpening stone to keep their pen knife sharp.

Salt. I think if you could get it you would carry salt. Sugar too. Great video.

Yayyy!  He's almost clean shaven.  Couple days growth is to be expected.

Salt, cheese, spice, coffee maybe

Ill be honest, i tend to carry my food in a 5L dry bag to bear hang, not afraid to go modern there, but for cooking, ive got a 36oz nesting cup on a 2L water bottle. Folding handles and detatchable bail and a lid, serves similar use to a civil war mucket honestly, and a little 6 inch sheet steel skillet. And that pretty well has me covered. Do have one of those little fold-a-cups for coffee and tea because ive burnt my lips one too many times on a metal cup! Lol. But my whole cooking rig takes up very little room, as the cup is on my water bottle, and the skillet is small, and weighs less than a pound. Excellent video!

that was mildly surprising..hearing you refer to it as a frying pan, silly me, I thought all Americans called it a skillet 😇
