Great list but I would exchange the claw hammer for the “Fubar” from Stanley, it simply gives you more options when you need it. And I consider nails to be supplies instead of a tool, so I would replace this with some sort of fire starter.

This list got me thinking… I do not have very many nails. Guess I’ll be buying a few large boxes of different sized nails soon. I already have over $600 worth of hand tools for cutting down trees, but will continue to use chainsaws as long as we can.

Great list. I would add a wonder bar.  Especially good for us ladies.

For the first time in 60 years, I’ve managed to go an entire 1.5 years without a cold or flu. My method: I started squeezing a lemon and pouring the juice — AND some organic vinegar — down the back of my throat (to avoid as much of the horrid taste as possible) about once a week starting around mid-November.
