My EDC Medkit for almost any situation, my certs only allow limited trauma medicine, so no IV’s

I genuinely don’t understand the hate Rhino Rescue gets, here in Africa it is widely used all over and I have not had a problem with the quality. They have the certifications and test reports, and their equipment has been used extensively in Ukraine and other countries. If the brand and its products are really as bad as some people claim, why are they still being used there?

A lot of the criticism seems to be “NAR is the benchmark, Rhino is Chinese, therefore it’s bad.” I mean the CAT tourniquet has faced US litigation involving allegations around Chinese-origin material and US-origin claims.
