Knife, pig

Another little tidbit to keep us warm. Xavier Rosset kept himself alive for 300 days on an isolated tropical island with nothing but a knife and a machete. By the end, it sounds like he might have even been a bit bored. That gives me hope that life will not be impossibly hard without all our modern conveniences.

A knife is one's most elementary survival tool. You can lose just about anything else you brought with you into the bush and survive, but losing your knife will usually kill you in short order.
