What’s Your Most Overlooked Survival Item?

Curious what survival item folks tend to overlook in their kits. For me, heavy-duty sewing needles are a must—repairs go way beyond torn clothes. What’s the one thing you pack that most others seem to forget about?

Duct tape gets my vote—it fixes almost anything, and I’ve even used it for emergency bandages when I ran out of the real stuff. Folks talk about it a lot but then forget to actually toss a roll in their kit. It’s lightweight and there’s just so many uses. Anyone ever tried mending shoes with it?
