If you could only keep one item in your kit, what would it be? For me, it’s a sturdy water filter—can’t do much without clean water. Curious what tops everyone else’s list and why.
A good knife is my pick—can’t imagine managing in any situation without one. Not just for cutting or food prep, but all sorts of odd jobs like making shelter or fixing gear. I suppose water’s vital, but if I had to pick one actual tool, knife wins for sheer versatility. Do most folks here keep a backup blade, or just put all your trust in one?
