Survival Equipment For Everyday Use

Survival Equipment For Everyday Use

One key thing you should consider when buying survival equipment is its versatility. You want to make sure it is money well spent. This means buying something that can be used more than once and for more than one purpose. 

Survival equipment and even survival kits can come in handy for everyday use. Think about it: many of the supplies you need for survival are actually common tools that you might have at home. Take flashlights, knives, and firestarters. These are all objects you probably have in a junk drawer in your home and use a lot.

These are great for lighting candles and helping you see in the dark. They are also tools that might just save your life. We call that a win-win; useful items that can be used every day and can be used for emergencies as well! 

We will discuss lots of equipment that is made for survival gear and tools but happens to work well for everyday use. Whether it is small household projects or just using the equipment for everyday stuff, you will find something useful at 4Patriots

What Are Some Examples Of Survival Equipment For Everyday Use?

There are lots of examples of survival equipment for everyday use (like the three we listed above). But we want to focus on some really great pieces that are worth investing in for you and your family. Below, we compiled a list of the best survival equipment and how you can use it daily or during emergencies. 

  • Liberty Blade Tactical Knife: When it comes to survival, a good knife is your best friend. This one is sharp enough to skin animals and gut fish. It can also slice through wood, plants, and dirt. You can dig holes, cut through things, and protect yourself. As for everyday use, keep this knife in your pocket to open boxes, slice open envelopes, or even clean it and use it to cut produce and meat.
  • Firebolt Waterproof Tactical Arc Lighter and Flashlight: When you are trying to survive, light and heat are two of the most important things you need. This flashlight is a light to see in the dark and a lighter to use for a firestarter. When you are in survival mode, use the flashlight to stay safe at night. Use the lighter to start a fire for warmth and cooking. Every day, you can use the lighter to light candles and bonfires and use the flashlight when going into your attic, basement, or garage. 
  • USB-Rechargeable Battery Kit: If there is an emergency, having power can help you make it through.

As for everyday life, use it on gas pumps, bathroom counters, toilets, door handles, and anything else you might need to disinfect.  

Do Food Kits Count As Survival Equipment?
