6 Tools to Survive Anything

6 Tools to Survive Anything: "



Some tools are so versatile you can’t even begin to list all of the things they are useful for. In fact, 9 times out of 10, you won’t even know what you’ll need them for until it happens. Here are the 6 tools every self respecting prepper should have in large quantities and always available.
1. Duct Tape
The fame of duct tape has taken on a life of it’s own. What can you even say about it? (or it’s big brother Gorilla Tape, from the folks that brought you Gorilla Glue)

2. Zip Ties

From handcuffs to lashings and a thousand other ways to tie stuff together, you should have a stockpile of zip ties in every shape and size.
3. WD40

“If it moves and it shouldn’t; use Duct Tape. If it should move and it doesn’t; use WD40″
4. Rope

For those larger jobs that zip ties and duct tape just aren’t going to handle good rope is endlessly useful.
5. Knife

A knife is the bread and butter (pun intended) of every survival tool kit. You really should have one on your person at all times.
6. Pry Bar

or Utility Bar. You can pry, hammer, lift, smash, and just generally mess stuff up. (I need to do a full write up on the Stanley Functional Utility Bar or “FUBAR”)
What Else?

What other tools are so useful? So manly? If you have others you think should be on this list leave a comment and let us know.
