All of these disaster kits have some merit, but I don't see any Tabasco Sauce in any of them. Gentlemen, please, stay focused!
My "Urban survival kit." What's yours?

Ruger LCP (just bought it)
iPhone4S
Icon HD
Officer Suisse
Surfire G2X Pro 15/320 lumens
The iPhone has a low level flashlight app so I don't generally carry a separate flashlight with me other than to take Pugsters for a walk at night. Surefire has a 15 lumens setting which is adequate to watch where you're walking (45hr run time) or at 320 it will light up the neighborhood. No longer carry a writing stick since iPhone will take a note... and of course has pedestrian nav, emergency radio scanner, compass... blah blah blah. It can also be used as a phone
. Icon HD keeps iPhone in pocket where it belongs. The Victorinox was bought at the factory a couple decades ago. Sure comes in handy for opening that danged plastic packaging everything comes in these days...

Very, very seldom am I in an urban setting, but this is the stuff that's usually with me anyway. Also carry a pen and my planner/calendar/notebook. My wife has insisted that I carry a cell phone now...so that's in the mix, too.
When I'm going "off-road," I usually switch caliber to .45 Colt and throw a lever-action rifle in the backseat of the truck.
You've told us about the A.G. Russell pouch for the Buck 110 knife. But is the other knife, the trapper pattern, a Carl Schlieper? Looks like mine.
Is that a Bianchi holster for the SP-101?
The pocket knife is a Case trapper pattern with chrome vanadium blades (high carbon...not stainless). The holster is a Browning holster that I found in a barrel at a leather shop along with a bunch of other holsters they were selling at bargain prices. I think I may have paid ten bucks for it.
