Here's a wildly dazzling thought... buy a *small* tackle box and just
put in the ones he will take. Zowie, huh...? Or one of those
compartmented plastic boxes also used from craft supplies. Or maybe one
from Home Depot used for nuts and bolts.

And how about this for looking at it backwards... take more than you
think you'll need, just in case. Never know that you might drop a knife
overboard or break the blade struggling with a grizzly, then how will
you cut that jerky?

Oh, man. I have to lie down now with all that heavy cogitating. I mean
it's even more than the whole U.N. thought about today. And our House
and Senate (but that's normal).

Wake me when it all becomes obvious...
