Top 5 Survival Items

This two-pack of emergency fire starters can be an essential part of your survival kit, should you choose to include them.

The Friendly Swede offers two ultra-durable flint fire starters that can withstand any weather conditions – rain, snow, and high-altitude climates.

You hold them with their rust-free ultra-strong ferrocerium rods, which makes the lighters suitable for camping, survival, bushcraft, and other outdoor activities.

Unlike your regular lighter, these flint rods won’t suffer from corrosion and will be ideal for various tasks, such as lighting campfires, signal fires, and emergencies.

The ergonomic handles make for a comfortable grip, and allow even the most frozen fingers to use with support.

An easy-grip makes it easier to launch an avalanche of sparks.

The metal chain ball included, reportedly, causes discomfort and could potentially rust or break in short order. Although a minor issue, this is worth pointing out.

Its 4.5 oz weight makes it light and pleasant to use.

Being both compact and easy to use makes these fire starters a real triumph for your survival kit, and ultimately for your overall survival.

These fire starters are on the market at an attractive price and are easily accessible to people of all backgrounds, all working towards the same thing: survival.

Tarps can front as an alternative shelter, ground cover, or even a sleeping bag. That’s why it would be an excellent inclusion to your survival kit.

The Aqua Quest Defender Tarp offers you a 100% waterproof tarp in various sizes, protecting small and more crowded groups from extreme weather.

With a hydrostatic resistance of 20,000 mm, The Defender can guarantee not a single drop of water will get through your tarp.

Again, this tarp caters to both the lone rangers and survival collectives out there with its size range.

The smallest tarp, with a height of 10 x 7 feet, and the most massive tarp, standing at 15 x 15 feet, have weights ranging from 2.4 lbs to 7.2 lbs.

If you’re on the move and need temporary and quick shelter, then it would be wise to acquire this tarp.

Unlike regular tarps on the market, The Defender includes between 19 and 24 reinforced webbing loops, including one in the center. You won’t even need a tree to set up this dark horse.

This product falls on the more expensive side of the spectrum.

However, based on its material, features, and praise within the field, it will be an excellent longterm investment and will increase your survival chances.
