32   KNIFE TIPS   Don’t  leave  home  without  THIS The knife is the single most important tool in any person’s survival gear. Almost anything can be found or improvised using a knife. For example, large cloth can be cut into smaller strips for bandages or carrying straps or a thousand other things… IF you have a knife #45 to do it. Shelter can be improvised from locally available materials… IF you have a knife to prepare it. The knife is the only tool you can’t do without. If you don’t have one, you have to improvise a cutting blade before you can improvise most other things. Submitted by Aaron, Aliso Viejo, CA How  NOT  to  lose  a  critical  tool! A knife on a lanyard is a great way to prevent loss of your tool. Stage hands and construction workers have known for a long time that a tool on a lanyard can’t fall onto people below. A lanyard can help prevent you from dropping something into the water or off a bridge, too, where it is lost forever. Perhaps just as importantly, a lanyard can give you a means to carry a knife that is not readily visible to others. A pat-down may or may not detect it, but wearing a knife under your clothes on a lanyard prevents it from being easily visible while it is still accessible to you. Submitted by Brad, San Jose #46
