The SK-MKI, or Personal Survival Kit is a medium to large sized (depending on the kit purchased) heavy duty cloth bag reinforced with bantha leather straps to make it sturdy. Inside contains a handful of items useful for an individual that would find themselves in a survival situation for five days. Each bag contains various items, including five days worth of ration bars, a water purification pump, thermal blanket, sleeping bag, and other survival items.
While initially meant to be produced and utilized in relief aid operations, the SK-MKI has found a small niche market as well. Often it is used for camping or hunting trips as much as it is used for relief aid. Likewise it can also be used by military units during survival training courses.

..:: Detailed Special Features ::..
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- Rugged Cloth Bag - A simple cloth bag with leather strips for added reinforcement.
- Knife - A survival knife
- Waterproof Matches - A small wooden stick with a wax coated white phosphorous head.
- Glowrods - The basic snap and shake variety glowrod to provide up to 4 hours of light

Strengths:
- Mass Produced: The Survival Kit is mass produced, meaning that it is easily accessible to any individual in the galaxy that may need or potentially find use for such a survival kit in the future.
- Species Kits: Each kit can be purchased with a special "species kit" which is just a fancy way of saying that it can be loaded out to meet the required needs of a specific species.
Weaknesses :
- Expiration: Many individuals believe that the Survival Kit is one that will last and last, however that is not true. Each survival kit lasts for a maximum of three years, at which time it is suggested that it be replaced if it has not been used (this is due to the ration bars nutritional value decreasing, regular wear and tear from storage, equipment malfunctions from being stored and unused, etc etc).
- Species Kits: While it has some additional set ups for specific species, it is still a niche product due in part to its limited species list.
