Below are the basic kits we put together for different agencies, from wildfire fighters to the U.S. Military for counter-terrorist missions and general combat engineering and armor roles.

Quality wildfire hand tools. Balanced, ergonomically superior to enhance safety, versatility and production. First use on a fire pays for them. They are long lasting.
BLM Smokejumper Kit $375 The set up for all temperate forests, Eastern or Western.	Federal Hot Shot Kit - $475 Stainless steel Asian Eye Hoe Primary Tool - half the crew totes The Troop Tool while second half of crew carries a Magnum Pulaski.
Arctic, Tropic, Temperate Grassland Kit - $375 For turf not easily scraped down to mineral soil. Swatter is flexible and molds in around rocks, brush, tussocks and irregular ground in swamps, marshes, etc.	Universal Wildfire Tool Kit - $475 For all fuel types found anywhere on earth..
Extra components of tools system can be purchased for $139.00 each. Tough Dragon Poly case is ideal for storing five primary, and five secondary tool heads and ten handles. They strap in bus seats to secure all tools for a 20 person crew in one seat. It is best to buy kits rather than individual tool heads. Pricing schedule encourages the buying of kits.
Elite Crew Kit Crews buying 5 BLM Smokejumper Kits get, a free, orange, (Dragon Case) to store, transport an entire crew's tools safely in helicopters, engines, buses, airplanes. They also get 2 extra universal handles, a Bonnie Hammer, a Dragon Swatter. This is 20 pieces @ $139 = $2,780.00 Add another $139 for shipping, CC processing and handling, and you are close to $3,000. To encourage arming crews with quality, effective tools. We offer this set for $1999.00! Free shipping. Bonnie Hammers The Bonneville Hot Shot Crew bought our tools, then altered one of our Pulaskis. Cut off the axe blade, welded on a bar for driving wedges. For swampers or guys who help chain sawyers. We now make all steel, commercial Bonniehammers for Shot Crews. 4 saws per crew. Outrageous!
Green (refurbished) Tools & Costs All individual tool components cost $139 each. It costs $35 for refurbishing a tool Handle with new handle. It costs $50 to refurbish our Pulaskis with new blades. We have some Hot Shot Crews now on their third set of blades. There are over four thousand of these tool sets out in the field. We get 20 to 30 handles back to be refurbished and about that many Pulaskis per year to be refurbished. Fire managers have told us; they are money ahead by simply buying a set of these tools for each fire fighter. They give these tools to their fire fighters saying, "these are your tools. They belong to you; not the government. When you leave this job, take them with you." What they found was, an end to tool accountability problems. No more disappearing tools. People take care of their own tools. Free, low cost government tools are not valued. They constantly disappear, and are used up, destroyed quickly. No matter what kind of fire season; each year the Government buys 80,000 Pulaskis. Cheap tools, not valued. They are perishable. They wear quickly. The entire tool gets thrown out even those with good handles. This is a waste of resources, and ends up being far less economical than our green tools. Our tools are longer lasting they are re-bladed, re-handled, and last for a very long time, not just one campaign fire before being thrown out. Once people use our tools they do not want to go back to single function, traditional tools. These new, improved tools are the future for professional wild land fire fighters. Temporary, pick up folks can be assigned traditional pulaskis and shovels.

A Book to prepare against
Global Warming and Fire Attack
Book and Dragon Wizz Wheel - $50.00

Along with this book is our "Dragon Wizz Wheel Tool" (below) which shows fire fighters and interface dwellers how to strategically set up their home in wild land fuels in order to be always ready in ignite an "ESCAPE FIRE" or FRONT FIRE to form an instant SAFETY HARBOR AREA" to survive an extreme wilfire, that cannot be stopped, before it will engulf a home.

We come to different countries, states, and fire ecosystems and put on "ESCAPE FIRE TRAINING PROGRAMS". We generally combine these with cake sales and public fair outreach or weekend live fire shows. These shows can be used to raise fire department funds for equipment and mostly for citizen education events to make communitites able to endure extreme fire events, that would normally result in destroyed homes as we see often on the news networks.

When you evacuate homeowners and lose homes, basically there is no fire management going on and fire suppression agencies in those fire jurisdictions do not really know anything except being effective at water squirting on low intensity, easy fires. Often they make easy fires look bad, but there are now methods that effectively work when traditional suppression fails.
