EDC/Writing Tools

While I love mechanical pencils, I hate how easy they break which is what drove me to search for a heavy duty mechanical pencil which has been awesome, not only is the pencil heavy duty & weatherproof, it has a 1.3mm lead thickness which doesn’t snap easily while writing like the 0.7mm size. Lasts a long time but still good to have some refills ready to go!

Potable Aqua Water Purification Tablets

Another great option for water purification is via tablets, I carry tablets as well as my LifeStraws because I like to have redundancies, remember “Two is One & One is None” is a big saying in the preparedness community for a reason!

EDC/P51 Can Opener

It’s much safer & easier to keep a P51 Can Opener on you than to use a Knife as a backup, not too mention these are extremely lightweight & small but come through when you need it, I love being prepared & when I put together an Altoid Survival Tin back in the day was when I learned about P51’s.

LifeStraw Personal Water Filter

Whether you enjoy the outdoors or simply want to be prepared for a disaster, clean water is a must & I’ve got several of these LifeStraws for my family that I keep with us especially when traveling. They’re very lightweight & easy to use since you don’t have to worry about having a “clean” water bottle as well as a “dirty” water bottle since it filters while you drink the water.
