Urban Survival Supplies

Now for the details on what to put in your kit. If you ask 20 survival experts what should go into a survival kit, you may get 20 different lists. One reason is that not all survival experts have the same background or experience. Experience The Ultimate EMP Survival Kit Review is one of the greatest influences on what goes into a kit. But if you have no experience, or not a great deal of it, you still need to start somewhere. So, in order to decide what items to put into a kit, let's break down the needs of someone in a survival situation.

The needs will focus on five basic headings: cutting tool, combustion device, cover/shelter, container and cordage. These headings have been taken from Dave Canterbury, author of Survivability For The Common Man. Dave refers to them as the 5 C's of survival. In his book, he goes into detail about the system he's developed, which is comprised of the 10 C's of survival. In my opinion, this is the simplest, yet most effective system available today for helping people develop their own survival kits. Let's go over quickly the 5 C's of survival.

Cutting Tool. The most important external tool you can carry in a survival situation is a knife. Even a small pocket style knife is handy to have. It is an essential tool. Even on short hiking trips, I always make a point of carrying a knife. Many times, I've met hikers who don't carry a knife with them and even make light of needing a knife. It's these same people who ask to borrow my knife for whatever reason. I can't remember how many times this has happened.
