Tactical Axe Hiking Staff

This Tactical Axe Hiking Staff is just a unique piece. It is the standard height for most canes, which makes it a great everyday Hiking Staff as well. It comes with a blade cover for safety but I’m making a custom cover that has a wood shell and locks in place. Part of the reason is to improve safety, and the other reason is to make it a little more covert. Just make sure that’s legal where you live if you plan on doing the same.

My family has a cabin out in the woods. I love walking the trails and seeing the wildlife. Having this Tactical Axe Hiking Staff makes me feel safer. It is easy to trip or stumble and this Hiking Staff help me stay on my feet. Of course the other benefit is that there is an Axe at the end of it. If I look delicious to some wild creature I know I can at least defend myself.

Tactical Axe Hiking Staff Scoring

This Tactical Axe Hiking Staff scores a 234/1000 and can have a moderate impact on your survival. It would have scored higher but its a little harder to use it everyday without significant modifications to make it less obvious. This also requires that doing so is legal where you live.

Don’t let the number fool you. Being on the list of top thousand survival gear items is a big deal. Just being on the list makes this critical gear.

  • Safety and Durability tested.
  • Overall length: 37″.
  • 7Cr17 Stainless Steel blade.
  • 30% Fiberglass handle.
  • Axe head is attached with three separate metal bolts.
  • Snap-on rubberize blade cover.

Recurve Bow

This Recurve Bow is both fun to shoot and a great way to put food your table. Yes, I know I could have picked a compound bow, but I just prefer the Recurve design. Let the arguments begin. When it comes to survival I like a Recurve over a compound bow as it has less moving parts, and I can unstring them for long term storage or to make transporting them easier.

Sure, a compound bow may have extended range, but they also take more experience to use in my opinion. It is much easier for new shooters to pick up a Recurve Bow and be semi effective when compared to a compound bow.

When it comes to quickly and quietly taking down the game and other threats, nothing beats a good Bow.

Recurve Bow

This Bow can have a moderate impact on your survival. It scores a 365/1000.

There are two reasons it ranks below the Mossy Oak Crossbow. The first is that it takes more room to use. It’s hard to lie in cover and shoot a Bow. There is also a limit to how long you can hold a bow string at the ready. Eventually you will get tried and have to let the tension go. The second reason is the skill it takes to fire. A skilled archer can put an arrow wherever he wants – but that skill is hard to come by. A Crossbow on the other hand can be mounted with a scope and takes much less skill to use. That gives it a higher ranking compared to this Bow.

Don’t let the number fool you. Being on the list of top thousand survival gear items is a big deal. Just being on the list makes this critical gear.

  • Perfect and durable hunting bow.
  • Max Draw Weight is 60 lb.
  • Laminated with fiberglass & maple wood.
  • Superior raw materials & Reliable quality.

Mossy Oak Crossbow

This Mossy Oak Crossbow is perfect for taking game and putting it on your table. It is sized to fit everyone and has the safety features you want like the anti dry fire system and finger safety reminders. These make sure you know if your fingers are going to be in line with bow string – which would be bad for obvious reasons. Because this is a Crossbow it obviously doesn’t have recoil like a rifle, making it perfect for smaller hunters. It is also quiet, so if you want to set up a safe shooting range you don’t have to worry about bothering your neighbors to train.

When it comes to surviving a disaster, this Mossy Oak Crossbow gives me tons of options. The obvious is that I can put food on my table. The less obvious is that it is a quiet way to take care of danger without alerting everything around you to what’s going on. If you are functioning on your own or with a small group that might be a key survival ability. Remove the threat in your path and escape before every other scavenger around you realizes where you are.

Mossy Oak Crossbow Scoring

This Mossy Oak Crossbow can have a high impact on your survival. It can put food on your table and take threats off the board. Just remember that you are planning on using this for self defense, or to kill Zombies. Any other us and you may have to talk to the authorities.

Because of the options this Crossbow gives you it scores a 815/1000.

  • 375 feet per second.
  • Just 6.6 pounds.
  • Lightweight fiberglass composite.
  • Anti-Dry Fire (ADF) Trigger System.

Hi-Lift Jack

If your vehicle is compatible with this Hi-Lift Jack, it is a must have. I’ve seen them used to do everything from changing tires to lifting one end of a lodged vehicle from a crevice to free it from a jam. Regardless of what kind of vehicle you have, you want to have a good Jack on hand. What good is having a vehicle if you blow a tire a half mile down the road and the Zombie horde catches up to you?

Be prepared, and make sure you have a Jack and a full size spare in your vehicles.

Hi-Lift Jack Scoring

This Hi-Lift Jack can have a moderate impact on your survival and scores a 230/1000.

Tow Strap

Having a high quality Tow Strap is a must for your vehicle. When it comes to the Zombie Apocalypse or any disaster, the roads are going to be a mess. It just takes a single vehicle in the road to create a chain reaction that will cause massive traffic jams. The only way to fix that is to tow those vehicles out of the way with your Strap, especially if you are working to clear the roads around your bolt hole.

Want to do the opposite of clear the roads? A tow strap is going to help you there as well. Put a few cars in neutral, tow them to where you want to create a roadblock, and then pop the tires. This is a great strategy if you want to make sure you control the access routes. It will be harder for scavengers to come racing in if you control the roads.

Of course, this Strap can also be used for a lot of everyday uses. Need to pull a vehicle out of a ditch? This Strap has got you covered.

Tow Strap Scoring

This Tow Strap has a moderate impact on your survival and scores a 228/1000.

Folding Shovel

This Folding Shovel is a true multi tool. I keep one in my vehicle. It folds up takes no space but lets me dig out when I need to. I’ve used it to dig everything from ice, snow, mud, and sand out from around my tires. I keep the second one with my camping gear. I like to go off the beaten trail and that means digging a cat hole when I need to go the bathroom. To be honest, I’ve used this Shovel to dig cat holes while driving as well. There are long stretches of road without rest stops and when you have to go you have to go.

This Shovel is also perfect to dig a fire pit. Obviously when its time to leave this Shovel also lets me make sure my fire is safely out. All important details when hiking and camping in dry weather.

When there is snow on the ground this Shovel is also great at digging down to the ground. That’s important so your fire doesn’t put itself out as well as for survival. Snow is a great insulator and you are much better off being surrounded by it and out of the wind than laying on top of it.

Lasly, this Folding Shovel also makes an excellent weapon. If it comes to hand to hand combat this Shovel works well as a mace and a cutting weapon.

Folding Shovel Scoring

This Shovel has a moderate impact on your survival and scores a 227/1000.
