What’s the Best Survival Knife Money Can Buy?

The first thing you should understand is that no matter what anyone tells you, there is no such thing as the “best survival knife.” About all that can be said is that somewhere out there, there’s a ‘best survival knife’ for YOU. At the end of the day, a lot of it is going to come down to personal preferences, what you’re comfortable with, and what your specific needs (and strengths, as a survivalist) are.

Urban Survival Skills

Everybody should know basic survival skills. Building a fire. Keeping warm and dry when outdoors. Finding and/or catching food. Those are the basic, bedrock survival skills that everybody needs, regardless of setting.

I’m going to assume you already know those things, and talk about what happens next. Let’s say you find yourself faced with a disaster. Maybe even a disaster of Biblical proportions. If and when that happens, in the first few days, you’ll rely heavily on the skills above, but after that? Well, after that you’re going to stop living moment to moment and start planning for a more settled future. What follows then, will be the skills you’ll need to focus on to get you to the next level, and make no mistake, your long term survival will absolutely depend on your ability to move away from the basics.

The Survival Bracelet:The Best Friend You Didn’t Know You Had!

Water purification tablets? Something else? Seriously, give the matter a few moments thought. What about a survival bracelet?
