Bushcraft Kelso Signature Survival Card
Bushcraft Kelso Designed Bushcraft Gear for Everyday Carry
The Bushcraft Kelso Signature Survival Card is a credit card size bushcraft tool created through a collaboration between Grim Workshop and Bushcraft Kelso. This card takes Kelso’s bushcraft mindset and distills it into a flat, portable bushcraft survival kit that can be carried daily.
Designed as functional bushcraft gear rather than a display piece, this survival card includes multiple removable tools that support carving, scraping, cutting, shaping, and material processing. Every tool is reusable and secured using Grim Workshop’s tool retention system, allowing repeated real-world use.
As part of the Grim Workshop Signature Card collection, this card reflects Bushcraft Kelso’s focus on improvisation, efficiency, and understanding materials instead of relying on oversized bushcraft tools.

Bushcraft Kelso Survival Card Functions and Bushcraft Tools
The Bushcraft Kelso Survival Card works as a modular bushcraft kit. Each tool can be removed independently, used for a specific bushcraft task, then returned to the card when finished.
The tools on this card support bushcraft activities such as:
Notching and shaping wood
Scraping bark, fibers, and natural materials
Cutting cordage and plant material
Improvised tool and campcraft creation
Rather than carrying multiple loose bushcraft tools, this card allows you to deploy only what is needed while keeping the rest secure and organized.

→ Expand cutting options: Bushcraft Cutting Tools
How This Bushcraft Survival Kit Is Carried
As a true survival card, the Bushcraft Kelso card is designed to fit where traditional bushcraft gear cannot.
It fits easily:
Inside a wallet
Inside Altoids tin size bushcraft kits
Inside flat bushcraft pouches
Stacked with other Grim Workshop survival cards
Over a dozen Grim Workshop survival cards can be stacked inside a single Altoids tin size container, allowing this card to act as part of a complete bushcraft survival kit rather than a standalone tool.

All Tools on the Card
Bushcraft tools are only as effective as the skills behind them. The Bushcraft Kelso Signature Survival Card is designed to work alongside bushcraft knowledge rather than replace it.
Grim Workshop bushcraft skill guides cover:
Wood processing and notching techniques
Improvised bushcraft tool creation
Cordage use and material selection
Campcraft and survival techniques
When paired with these skills, the Bushcraft Kelso card becomes a true bushcraft capability multiplier.
Reusable By Design
Every Grim Workshop tool is built to be used, not just once, but over and over again. Each card includes our Original Reusable Tool Retention System, a proprietary platform that securely holds your tools in place until you need them.
When a job’s done, simply wipe the tool clean and press it back into the card. The retention system grips it firmly, restoring everything to its organized layout. This process can be repeated hundreds of times without losing fit or function, keeping your tools secure, your wallet uncluttered, and your gear ready for whatever comes next.
Lightweight, durable, and always ready, this multi-tool card delivers long-term reliability in a compact, wallet-sized form. It’s a practical piece of gear for people who rely on their tools to work every time.

MARK A ROGERS
VerifiedOn the surface, these little cards look handy. I've watched some of them being used on YouTube videos and was very impressed. HOWEVER, ALL the cards I bought were given as Christmas gifts, so I didn't end up with one to actually USE and evaluate for myself...sorry. They SEEM to be manufactured well from good material and have practical designs. If I get any feedback from the recipients, I will be sure to let you know and what they relate. Good luck and continued success!
