Escape & Evasion - Contents

 Originally developed by the highly-secretive MI9, escape and evasion kits (E&E) were one of the most important pieces of equipment for downed airmen. This collection of reproduction components allows you  to authentically fill your E&E pouch (available separately).

  1. 2,000 French Francs:
    The currency includes the 1000, 500, 100, 50, and 10 franc notes, for a total of 2,000 French Francs. Each type is reproduced from the period 1940's plates, authentic for the period, and are printed on 100% cotton paper. They do not have the watermark, and are no longer in circulation, so are not legal tender and will not pass as originals.

  2. Hacksaw blade & Fiberboard sheath
    The hacksaw is construction from a vintage 1940's blade that has been professionally machined to the MI9 specifications. It has a light black oxide protective coating, which wears off with use. It also includes the small fiberboard protective sheath to prevent the blade from cutting the other components. 

  3. Escape compass
    The compass is custom produced according to the US Waltham version. It features a custom olive drab AN319 finish, smooth exterior, and the white cross hair on the face and a luminescent dial.
