100-Lumen Pen Light

This 100-Lumen Pen Light is the perfect mix of small, light, and bright. All in a package that easily slips into a pocket. It is perfect for when you drop things in the dark, need a bit of light when hiking, or just need to fix something in a dark corner.

My experience is that when things go bad, the first thing that goes out is the power. I was on the 20th floor of an office building in Philadelphia when it lost power. Emergency lights came on, then immediately went out. I don’t think they were supposed to do that. This was in the 1990s, so we didn’t all have cell phones – and none of us had a flashlight. I still feel that uneasy fear when I think about how we went down nine or ten flights of emergency stairs before we finally got back to a level with lights. That was when I decided to always keep a Pen Light on me. If it has been more than a power outage, I would have really needed a light.

Fifteen years later I was in India when the power grid failed, and yes, i was in a high rise, but I’d learned my lesson and had my Pen Light on me. It’s amazing how just having a light in the dark helps keep the panic at bay.

Now I carry this 100-Lumen Pen Light with me as both a bit of Everyday Carry Gear as well as a Hidden Survival Gear must have. I love that this fits easily in a pocket, and also has a rubberized coating so I can hold it in my mouth and use both hands to do whatever needs doing.

100-Lumen Pen Light Scoring

This Pen Light can have a moderate impact on your survival and scores a 239/1000. Light is critical to survival, and this is a must have bit of everyday carry gear to make sure you have that light when you need it.

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.

  • 100 Lumens of powerful light.
  • Rubberized bite zone.

Gun Magnets

These Gun Magnets are perfect to handle all kinds of different scenarios. Of course they can be used as intended. Put the Magnet inside you closet or under you desk and then use it to hold onto a firearm or maybe a Machete. Please make sure that wherever you store self defense tools is safe. Don’t put a weapon anywhere a child or untrained users could get their hands on it.

What I really like about these Gun Magnets is how they turn any metallic object into Hidden Survival Gear. With a bit of super glue or a few screws, you can discretely put gear wherever you need it.

That is where these Gun Magnets come in. I can put them anywhere I want and use their holding power to put everything from machetes, shotgun, handguns, and rifles wherever I need them.

These are perfect to put a shotgun over my closet door. That puts it safely out of reach, while also hiding it from sight. Its hard to steal something if you don’t know its there. Know what I mean? On the flip side, if I need it, I not only know where it is, but I can also make an excuse to hit the closet safe for cash if its a home invasion, giving me the chance to introduce any bad actors to some 12g buckshot.

When it comes to keeping your Hidden Survival Gear truly hidden, these Gun Magnets are the first thing you should add to your inventory.

Gun Magnets

These Gun Magnets can have a moderate impact on your survival and score a 238/1000. They gain points because they can turn any metallic object and turn it into Hidden Survival Gear.

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 for Handguns, Rifles, Shotguns, Pistols, and Revolvers.
  • Holds any metallic items, including tools and knives.
  • Rubber coated cover to protect your gear.
  • Compact 3.8″L x 1.43″W x 0.4″H size.

Concealment End Table

This Concealment End Table is the perfect way to keep self defense weapons close by but safely hidden. Yes, I am a bit of a survival nut. I like to have a layered plan that gives me a ton of redundancy. That means that I have furniture like this Concealment End Table close at hand so I can discretely keep whatever I need to survive where I’m most likely to be when the world blows up.

Best of all, if you have a cabin or bolt hole and it does get robbed, they are going to look for things like a gun safe, but if you keep your gear hidden, they are less likely to find it. I am also a very sneaky son of a beech. I cut a small square in the rug under one my end tables. If you do come in to rob me I have to open the floor safe so you can get some cash. Which puts me directly in front of this End Table and whatever surprises I have stored in it.

Don’t be caught off guard, make sure you have a plan to survive no matter what happens. Make a primary plan and then a backup. Once you have that, make a backup to your backup to your backup. If things go horribly wrong your pre planning is the only thing that will keep you alive.

Concealment End Table Scoring

This End Table can have a moderate impact on your survival and scores a 237/1000.

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.

  • Concealed drop down-then-out compartment.
  • Discretely and securely conceal valuables and weapons.
  • Felt-lined drawer protects against scratches.

Weatherproof Pen

This Rite in the Rain Weatherproof Pen is just the thing to go with your Weatherproof Notebook. What good is having an all weather Weatherproof Notebook if you don’t have the correct tool to write in it? Keep one of these Weatherproof Pens in your pocket and it won’t matter if its pouring rain or if your covered in mud. You’ll be able to write down critical information, or leave behind notes for the rest of your team.

It’s low tech, but my guess is that cell phones and a lot of the other technology we rely on everyday is going to stop working once the Zombies start biting. And, as a last resort, you can use it as a weapon to kill the Undead – you just have to be close in and have good aim to get this through an eye socket or two.

Weatherproof Pen Scoring

This Weatherproof Pen can have a moderate impact on your survival and scores a 236/1000.

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.

  • Writes through water, grease, and mud without clumping or smearing.
  • Writes in temperatures from -30F to 250F.
  • Writes under water (up to 35 ft), and any angle.
  • Ideal pen for All-Weather Notebooks.

Weatherproof Notebook

Back when I was younger I would have killed for one of these Weatherproof Notebooks. I remember being on a hiking trip in the rain and snow and back then I carried a little notebook that I would jot down ideas and notes. Pencils work great even when wet, but I had a normal old notebook because two decades ago I couldn’t afford a Weatherproof Notebook, and honestly, didn’t even know they existed back then.

Today, these Weatherproof Notebooks are a critical piece of Hidden Survival Gear. If I need to write a note or let someone else on my team know that plans changed, I don’t have to worry about the weather destroying the message. It’s a small detail, but one that could mean life or death for the people who are supposed to be following me. I can write my note, tack it on the trail at eye level, and continue to move on.

I’ve been on horribly documented trails. Without my own notes I’d have to struggle through finding out the same issues over and over again. Whenever I am hiking I takes notes whenever I find something I might want to avoid – or make sure I can get back there later.

Weatherproof Notebook Scoring

These Notebooks can have a moderate impact on your survival. If you need directions or notes and you need to hike cross country, a little bit of wet weather can ruin your day. That is where these Weatherproof Notebooks save the day. They score a 235/1000.

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.

  • 100 pages / 50 sheets per pocket notepad.
  • All-Weather paper won’t turn to mush when wet and will repel water.
  • Won’t lose its shape in your back pocket or backpack.
  • Use a standard pencil like a #2 Ticonderoga or an All-Weather Pen.
  • Tough but flexible outer shell.
  • Completely recyclable.

Fixed Blade Knife

I have a bunch of these Smith & Wesson Fixed Blade Knives and I love how they feel in my hand. They are the perfect size to slip in my boot, tuck down the back of my pants, or strap on my MOLLE Vest. That means they are highly likely to be in my hand when I need them. Just make sure that wherever you put them is legal in your location.

My buddy always complains about my Fixed Blade Knives. He can clip his folding knife to his belt and because its not concealed it is 100% legal in his state. While it is better than nothing, I prefer a Fixed Blade if I have a choice. Folding knives are great, but when it comes to making a spear for survival I don’t trust that hinge point. The second it takes to open the blade also worries me. Sure I have to draw my Fixed Blade Knife but the moment the tip clears the sheath I am ready for action.

I also find that from a quality perspective it is hard to get a folding knife at this price point. That is important because I like to stash these Fixed Blade Knives in various locations. With a bit of glue or a magnet I can stash these just about anywhere. And yes, I am always careful to keep them out of locations where kids could find them.

Fixed Blade Knife Scoring

These Fixed Blade Knives can have a moderate impact on your survival and score a 251/1000. They get points for being easy to stash but loose points because they are close in weapons.

This is my favorite Fixed Blade Knife at under $20 bucks. At this price it is a steal.

  • 9 inches (22.9 centimeter) overall length.
  • 4.7 inches (12.1 centimeter) blade length.
  • Just 7.7 ounces
  • Made of r7Cr17MoV high carbon stainless steel.
  • Black rubber wrapped handle.
  • Comes with convenient belt or boot sheath.
  • Ideal for everyday carry.

Self Defense Siren

These Self Defense Sirens are a utility tool as far as I’m concerned. I have one for my wife’s keychain. If she gets in trouble she is pulling this and then her Pepper Spray. When it comes to non lethal self defense for people who don’t have other hand to hand combat skills, you can’t beat this combo.

These Sirens help you fight violence and unwanted attention, because when this goes off the people bothering you are going to run. If they don’t, that means you are in a very isolated location – and that you should fight for your life and don’t hold back. Still, these Sirens can still distract your attacker giving you an opening to run or attack. If you are in a populated area this Siren is going to draw attention your way which is a good thing. 

The other reason I love these Sirens is their alarm capabilities. Easily create a alarm anywhere you need one. Put a cord on any gear you want to keep and if your bike, bag, or anything else is moved it is going to pull the alarm. This has saved my bag on the beach on two different occasions. I bury a cup of sand with a cord on it and attach it to my backpack. If anyone tries the casual snatch and walk away they are in for a surprise.

If we are lucky enough to face a Zombie Apocalypse, these are perfect Zombie aggregators. Pull the pin, throw your Self Defense Siren and watch as the biters swarm the noise. It is a great way to pull the Zombies away so you can escape, or shoot into a more tightly packed group of targets.

Self Defense Siren Scoring

These Sirens can have a moderate impact on your survival and score a 233/1000.

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.

Your ability to use these Self Defense Sirens is really only limited by your imagination.

  • Easy to carry anywhere you go.
  • Self defense siren is the fastest way to get help and attention.
  • Easy to use by everyone from kids to seniors.
  • Can be easily heard up to 1000ft away.
  • Military-Grade Durability.
  • Waterproof.
  • Provides 365-day Battery Life.

Titanium Ice Pick

This Titanium Ice Pick looks at home in any ice bucket. It is classy, will last forever, and let’s you pretend your a 1930’s bar keep. Freeze a huge block of ice in a plastic container and then use this Ice Pick to make cocktails and mixed drinks. Put it with your bar supplies or stick it in an ice bucket and no one is going to take a second look at it.

Want to take it on the road? Throw it in a small cooler and nobody is ever going to think twice about why its in your vehicle.

Want to take with you everywhere? Put it on a lanyard and don’t bend over to fast or you will spit yourself. That lanyard hole also lets you hang it off gear or even off a retractable cord on your belt so you can use it and not lose it.

Plan ahead, make sure you have the tools you need to survive, no matter where you are when disaster strikes it.

Titanium Ice Pick Scoring

This Titanium Ice Pick scores a 232/100 and can have a moderate impact on your survival. It gains points for being small, light and portable, as well as being easy to hide in plain sight. It loses points because it has very little reach. If a disaster strikes and you need to defend yourself this Ice Pick is better than being forced to fight bare knuckled, but its real advantage is its ability to look at home in your kitchen or bar.

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.

  • Solid .394″ rod of 6AL4V titanium.
  • Tough, lightweight and will never rust.
  • Only 1.68 ounces and 9.25 inches long.
  • Fits comfortably in either hand.
  • Includes lanyard hole.

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.
