Firewood Splitter

TJ Provost Leave a comment

This Firewood Splitter is perfect for those days you need to split wood all day. I find it takes less effort to use than a splitting axe. It also means that as the day goes on and I get more tired, the risk of me cutting into my foot goes way down.

It doesn’t matter whether its winter or summer, you are going to need Firewood to boil water, cook, and stay warm. The amount of wood you need may change based on the season, but you are going to need to feed that fire no matter what.

When it comes to feeding your fire, this Firewood Splitter is a must have tool. It is safer than using an axe and means that you can put people on the firewood work detail you trust with a maul but not an axe.

Firewood Splitter Scoring

Yes, it is heavy, but most of us will be pulling up to our Survival Camp in a vehicle of some sort, and while this is heavy, it is worthy every ounce of its weight. Because it can also have a high impact on your chances of survival it scores a 730/1000.

  • Best way to effortlessly split firewood.
  • Faster and safer than using a dangerous axe, splitting maul or hatchet.
  • Modern and safe alternative to keep your fingers away from the blade.
  • Small and light enough to take anywhere!
  • Splitter and its blade designed to withstand years of abuse.

Grass Sickle

TJ Provost Leave a comment

This Grass Sickle is a must have if you have a weed eater. When my weed eater can’t hack it I pull out this Sickle. Weeds that can defeat my gas weed eater don’t stand a chance against this Sickle. There are always vines and thicker underbrush that a weed eater just can’t get through. I have a field next to my house and my bolt hole is out in the woods. Having this Grass Sickle helps keep the ground clutter down. It also has the advantage of not needing gas or electric to run.

It’s also perfect to trim up small branches and vines. It’s also cheap enough that if I beat it to death I’m not worried about it. I keep a path cut into the woods so I can dump leaves and grass in a mulch pile, and without this Grass Sickle that path would be gone in two seasons.

Best of all, this Grass Sickle is nice and quiet. That means I don’t disturb my neighbors if I get started early or go late. That quiet is important. Discretion means I can work without drawing attention, which is always nice.

This Grass Sickles also hold an edge really well. I use it pretty hard and only have to sharpen it once or twice per season. When it does get dull I just pull out the file and its as good as new.

Grass Sickle Scoring

This Grass Sickle is a legit tool. It’s also an awesome bit of hidden survival gear. Whether its scavengers trying to take your food or Zombies trying to eat your brain, this Sickle can take care of business. Throw it in your vehicle with some other yard tools and no one will look at you twice. That means you can be ready for whatever comes your way.

This Grass Sickle can have an extreme impact on your survival chances. It scores a 903/1000.

  • Suitable for crops and animal husbandry.
  • Can be used for cutting grass, vines, branches, and weeds.
  • Ergonomic design.
  • High quality blade.
  • Steel Grass Sickle size – 17.3 in x 7.3 in / 275g

Fishing Rod Storage

TJ Provost Leave a comment

Fishing is a great way to get out in the fresh air and put food on your table. My kids loved to fish when they were little, and it is still something we enjoy years later. My garage is full of fishing rods for different purposes and without several of these Fishing Rod Storage kits my it would look like a fishing store blew up in it.

I like to keep my different Rods organized by their purpose. It makes it easier to find what I need and pack it up when its time to go catch some fish. It also creates a nice look as the different Fishing Rods look well organized when grouped together. This makes my wife happy as well – and that is never a bad thing.

When it comes to putting food on the table during the Zombie Apocalypse what could be better than fishing? Zombies are attracted to noise so unless you are way out in the boonies, a firearm isn’t a great choice to put food on the table. Fishing however is nice and quiet, and you can even do it from up in a tree if you had to. You just have to get the fish in the air before the Zombies steal your catch.

Fishing Rod Storage Scoring

When it comes to the post Zombie Apocalypse I honestly can’t wait to go fishing. I figure six months post Apocalypse the fishing is going to be amazing. I can’t wait to see the fish get bigger every year. The way it is now I feel lucky to even get a bite sometimes.

This Rod Storage scores a 50/1000 on the Survival Impact Scale.

  • Storage rack holds all your fishing rods!
  • Heavy duty to hold all your gear.
  • Quick and easy to install.
  • Great for all your gear – Rods, Nets, Vests, paddles, etc.
  • Perfect to organize all your fishing rods.

Solar Pendant Lights

TJ Provost Leave a comment

I have a wonderful workshop/shed that is at the back of my property. Without these Solar Pendant Lights I would have been forced to pay hundred or thousands of dollars to run a power line out there. These Solar Lights let me put a light wherever I need it. Im looking forward to when I can build a tree fort for grand kids, because you better believe it is going to have solar lights inside.

Because these Solar Pendant Lights also have a motion sensing mode I can put them outside gates and even my shed entrance so that if someone does sneak by I will at least see who it is and what they are doing. It also helps scare off people who are trying to be stealthy. When the lights come on, most people run if they are about to do dirty deeds in the dark.

Do you have a regular camp site? You can put up these Solar Lights and have light wherever you need it. Trust me when I say that using an outhouse by flashlight is much harder than just setting up a Solar Pendant Light.

Solar Pendant Lights Scoring

When it comes to Off The Grid, you can’t go wrong with these Solar Pendant Lights. I keep a few extra sets so when the power goes off during the Zombie Apocalypse my Bolt Hole will still have lights. Throw a few more sets out in the woods on motion sensing mode and you also have an early warning system of inbound biters.

These Solar Lights score a 415/1000. It’s hard to survive if you don’t have light to see what’s going on.

Sun Canopy Shade Sail

TJ Provost Leave a comment

When the sun is bearing down on you and won’t relent you need this Sun Canopy Shade Sail. It is perfect to protect your deck, patio, and outdoor cooking area. If you have a pool these are perfect to create shaded areas for the little ones.

The thing I really love about these Shade Sails is how portable they are. I have set them up in at least a dozen different locations over the years. I’ve shaded temporary shelters to keep the sun from making my tent feel like an oven. I’ve also put up a Shade Sail to keep my nephews from getting burnt to a crisp while they worked on getting a four wheeler back on the trail. Whenever we go camping I throw one in my vehicle just in case I need it.

I have a friend in California who puts a Sun Shade over his garden. It is just so sunny that without the Sun Shade his plants get cooked before they can grow. The point is if you have anywhere with too much sun, you can fix it.

What will you find at my bolt hole if your lucky enough to find it post Apocalypse? You will see Shade Sails over our outdoor kitchen and guard stations. Another Shade Sail will sit over the maintenance area. If I’m lucky enough to still have ammunition left, you might just find me there cleaning a few guns.

When it comes to surviving the sun, you can never have enough Sun Canopy Shade Sails.

Sun Canopy Shade Sail Scoring

This Sun Canopy can have a moderate impact on your survival. How much it impacts you rely depends on where you live or where you plan to live once a disaster strikes. That means this Sun Canopy scores a 197/1000.

  • Constructed of 185 gsm UV protected high density polyethylene.
  • Strong stitched seams and durable stainless steel D-rings in each corner.
  • Durable and well made.
  • Allows cooling breezes, light, and rain to pass through.
  • Easy to install and maintain.

Insect Protection Net

TJ Provost Leave a comment

I live between a river and a swampy bay. At night in the summer you can watch the insects swarm and cover street lights. Trying to camp or even just chill outside is really tough and I hate to cover myself in insect repellant just to have a drink while enjoying the cooler night air, which makes this Insect Protection Net a must have for camping, hiking, or just to enjoy some time outside.

When it comes to warm weather survival, this Insect Net is a must have. They are perfect for camping and hiking and will let you sleep in peace while still enjoying whatever breeze there is. All while protecting you from bug bites, itching, and a ton of insect born parasites and diseases.

Depending on where you are travelling, this Insect Net may be one of the most important bits of survival gear you can have. You will know that is true when you wake up in the morning and it is covered in mosquitoes.

Most people have no idea how much is spent by their local and state governments to keep insects at bay. Florida alone spends over $160 MILLION a year to kill biting insects. If a natural disaster or the Zombie Apocalypse stalls that effort for even one season, the bugs will be so thick that they will turn the noon day sun into an overcast day.

Insect Protection Net Scoring

I have one Insect Protection Net for each bedroom at my bolt hole and a few more to bunk outside to enjoy the outdoors. There is nothing like falling asleep watching the stars and listening to nature. Once things start to fall apart, these Insect Protection Nets will be critical survival gear. Once the power goes out, trust me when I say you will want to be sleeping outside and away from the trapped heat inside your home.

Still, this bit of gear is most useful during warm months, and it depends on where you live and where your bolt hole is, so this Protection Net scores a 455/1000.

  • Genuine U.S. G.I. field insect protection net.
  • Nylon ribbons at the sides and corners for tying it down.
  • Measures 68″ x 200″.

Monster Camping Towels

TJ Provost Leave a comment

People always forget something when camping. Packing a good Camping Towel is one of those things in my experience. I don’t know how many times I’ve been camping and people will set up a tent and realize there is a nice lake or stream to take a dip in. Only they didn’t bring any Towels which is fine when your going in, but sucks when you climb out and the wind picks up a bit. Plan for cool breezes when you get out of the water and make sure you have a Camping Towels to dry off with.

Each towel has a colored seam so you don’t have to worry about using someone else’s Towel, and they are nice and big and soft, just the thing to dry off before going to cook a steak on the fire and drink a sip of whiskey.

It is easy to forget about the basics when planning for any survival situation. People tend to focus on weapons and food, which are important, but you need to be able to function on a daily basis too. If a natural disaster knocks out the power for weeks, or maybe forever, do you want to be able get cleaned up and dry off. It is those moments of normalcy that make life bearable when everything else has changed.

Of course a Towel has a hundred other uses as well. It can be used to protect you from the sun or make bandages. A Towel can be used to carry loose items, or swaddle a baby. A Towel gives you a general purpose tool that can be turned into a bunch of other tools as well.

Camping Towel Scoring

While these Towels will have a low impact on your survival, they are critical creature comforts when it comes to the simple things like bathing, which is why these Towels score a 195/1000.

  • Includes 4 towels and two carry bags.
  • Perfect for camping or the beach.
  • Each towel has a special color seam to identify it.
  • Absorbent, light and soft.

WoundSeal Topical Powder

TJ Provost Leave a comment

This WoundSeal Topical Powder might be one of the simplest and best first aid items you can keep with you. Even minor cuts can become infected and ruin a hike or camping trip. I’m usually in shorts when I’m hiking in the summer, and even when I’m being careful I end up with cuts and scrapes on my legs. Thanks to this WoundSeal Topical Powder I can quickly close the wounds after washing them out and not only stop the bleeding, but also close it up, reducing the risk of infection.

The following is not medical advice, it is just me rambling. I’ve seen a few nasty injuries over the years. One of those was a machete cut that went deep and we were hours away from the nearest road. A tourniquet was an option, but it also means risking limb ischemia. This was years ago and I didn’t carry WoundSeal Topical Powder back then (because it didn’t exist yet) but I would much rather be able to do something to stop or slow the bleeding and then wrap and compress the wound.

As it was we carried the guy a few miles to the nearest road and he got a nice ride in an Ambulance before getting twenty or thirty stitches.

As always, follow the manufacturer’s instructions and if you are in doubt call your healthcare provider before use.

WoundSeal Topical Powder Scoring

This WoundSeal Topical Powder can have a high impact on your survival chances. Small wounds can easily become big infections that can kill you. Which is why this WoundSeal Powder has scores a 755/1000.

  • Stop bleeding from lacerations, abrasions and other wounds.
  • Combines with blood to form an instant scab.
  • Seals out dirt and impurities to help accelerate healing.
  • Becomes waterproof in just an hour.
  • WoundSeal even works for people who easily bleed.
  • Single-use tubes can be carried everywhere.
  • FDA cleared and tested by the Department of Defense.

Leather Work Gloves

TJ Provost 1 Comment

If you spend any time tinkering, fixing, or doing home maintenance, you will appreciate these Leather Work Gloves. They are comfortable and have armor in just the right spots. Most importantly, they leave your thumb and first two fingers free. That means I can use these Leather Work Gloves without having to take them off when trying to pick up small screws, nuts, or any tiny part.

When I’m working on things in my garage I usually have a tablet loaded with diagrams or instructions, which makes these Leather Work Gloves perfect as they leave me free to use the tablet screen. That also means then when my phone auto locks and I need to get back into it to answer a text or pick some new background music I don’t have to take my Gloves off just to do a simple task.

It also makes them good shooting Gloves. Sometimes gloves are just a bit too big or get snagged as I’m loading shotshells and with these Gloves I don’t have to worry about that. They are perfect for going out to shoot a round of clays or two when the weather is a bit windy or cold.

When it comes to the Zombie Apocalypse, these Leather Work Gloves give me everything I want. They leave me able to load and shoot without any risk of obstructions while also providing critical protection against cuts, scrapes, and maybe even a bite.

Conclusion

A good set of Leather Work Gloves can have a moderate impact on your survival. When the weather is bad or you can’t risk your hands getting cut up, these Gloves are perfect.

Always keep a good set of gloves around to protect your hands!

  • Fingerless design frees your thumb, index and middle finger.
  • Built in thermoplastic rubber knuckle guards.
  • DuraHide leather palm provides extreme abrasion resistance.
  • D3O palm padding absorbs high-impact energy through the palm.
  • Machine washable leather.
