Fair enough. The only difference my answer had was a rucksack in place of the cordage, but that's only because the areas that I'm used to that I would chose to go survive in have an absolute abundance of dogbane, and I'm used to turning that into rope pretty quickly and easily. Used to make rope out of it when I was bored as a kid. Meanwhile a good rucksack means less trips gathering supplies, and the ability to carry more tools and supplies over longer distances.

You should still boil water after filtering it, it’s actually more important to boil it than filter it. Filtering water removes mostly just visible contamination: namely macroscopic-organisms and particulate. But boiling it kills the left over bacteria and viruses. (A good filter will also remove *some* dissolved solids and non-water liquids but not all) Consuming a little dirt is a lot less dangerous than ingesting large amounts of infectious microorganisms.

[@donoberloh]

I do agree you can't filter as well as boiling, however boiling water takes a lot of fuel, a lot of time, and only when a fire won't give away your presence or position. A combo of both can be great.

Something to boil water in. Lighter, lots of lighters. After this, add anything you want. Misery Index Mental toughest: Cold water makes you the most miserable in the shortest amount of time. After finishing your next shower, turn the hot water off and stay in the cold for 5 seconds, then build up to 10 seconds. Keep this up until you can just stand the cold water, but still function. Try to tie a knot or do a simple math problem to test yourself. Learn to eat something that tastes horrible. This isn't a dining experience, it's to keep you alive. Start with liver, brains, or other organ meat. Next try crickets and grasshoppers. Work your way to gophers, rats, and pigeons. You're not trying to develop a taste for these, you're just trying to choke it down and keep it down. Chew these toward the back of your mouth where there are less taste buds. Once in the jungle, a woman offered me a handfull of grubs. She had been kind enough to gather them and offer them to me, so i felt obligated to eat them. Did they taste nutty? No, they tasted like caca. I will spare you the story of dining on a walrus colon. But it was almost all fat and full of calories.

I would take 1 My Becker BK2 2. 100 ft 550 parachord 3. Stanley Cook Pot 4. Ferro rod 5. E-tool I can use the parachord, BK2 and Etool to build a shelter. Ive built simple ones to more solid with just the knife and parachord as a ridgeline or to lash and frap a solid top for a lean-to. The e tool is good for a coyote well also some chopping or digging a dakota fire pit or digging down to lay leaves over a simple makeshift bed. Of course this list could change if I were given weather, season, location of water source. But Ive used just those before for over night use.

Without a container if you lose that water filter, you could be screwed as far as hydration. Always a container that allows you to boil water. Why put yourself in a situation where you’re having to burn out a bowl from wood and heat or boil water with hot stones? The only caveat for me would be that I would definitely choose a water filtration system if I was worried that the water I would have to use may be contaminated with high nitrates or contaminants like mercury or zinc or lead. In that case boiling will do nothing to remove them. It would be very situational for me as to which I would bring if I could not bring both. Otherwise, I will always opt to bring a metal container and boil. Which consequently also allows me the ability to cook and to make infusions. It also allows for the steeping of plant roots and greens that are high in potassium and magnesium to replenish lost electrolytes. If you do not have a balanced electrolyte profile, the water you drink is going to hurt you more than help you. Pack a little iodized salt to replace iodine, sodium and chloride and know your local edible plants to replace potassium and magnesium, and you have the ability to achieve a perfectly balanced electrolyte profile to maximize uptake of water from the bloodstream through the cell membrane to optimize hydration and health. A water filter is going to provide you with clean water. But you could suffer for it greatly without having the ability to replace electrolytes. This is why a metal container is an absolute must in 99% of situations. Is it doable without a metal container? Absolutely. But the amount of work it takes to do something as simple as be able to make a refreshing tea is not worth the expenditure of calories.

1. Husqvarna carpenter axe 2. Hammock with a mosquito net 3. Canteen with built-in filter 4. Silky big boy saw 5. Magnesium rod My backpack doesn't count cause i need something to carry everything.

[@MarilynStangl]

#1 Full tang Knife with rubberized handle and sheath, 4-6inch blade is enough, #2 clear disposable lighter so you can see how much fuel you have and with a lighter you have sparks AND flames easily (a ferro rod requires good,dry tender), #3 100foot+ of 550 cord and/or tarred bank line, #4 S/S metal pot with lid to boil water and cook food, #5 heavy-duty poncho for shelter and make-shift carry bag/backpack! If possible I would trade the poncho for a .22LR rifle with a 500 round brick of ammo for hunting and self-defense! Your clothing is always your first line of shelter and unless you're always on the move a makeshift shelter is a good investment of time and energy!

After the use of the cord on the knife handle. There is no doubt you have an answer but please share it. Your awesome dude 👊🏻

[@Ryker2608]

I always go with at least 6, the 5c method plus an additional c 1. Cover 2. Cordage 3. Combustion device 4. Cutting tool 5. Container 6. Calories I've been to the pathfinder school in Ohio, you're taught how someone can get by at least in the shirt term with the first 5 items. But I like to add a 6th C in the form of calories, something to eat to provide energy. For me that's usually a backpackers meal of some sort.

[@ChrisIman-n9i]

I haven't watched your video yet. But I will tell you what I'd want to have being a former military member, a mercenary in Yugoslavia, a survivalist and prepper and a former member of a state militia.. 1. knife. 2.. fire starter. 3. water filter. 4. tarp. 5. fish hooks & line I can manage everything else fairly easily. Been there and done that for nearly a year. I don't actually need these items but having them makes life a bit less complicated! 😊

[@thinkforyourself2109]

For me it would be a knife (or axe), pot(s), matches (or lighter), sleeping bag, and map. A canoe, tent and bug dope would be good too. I don't see the point of water purification; most streams and lakes are clean enough and you can boil the water. An axe can help make a lean-to. The fishing line makes sense -- but don't you need a hook too? A sleeping bag and tent are necessary in cold or rainy weather. One also needs proper clothing. You can't just have 5 items to survive the wilderness for any length of time.

[@Kalrak]

Moral of the story, you will never go in to the wild with only 5 items, maybe 5 beers but that's that.

[@josephjohnson6849]

Good that. 1. Knife. 2. Ferro rod. 3. Thin cooking pot. 4. Water filter/with jug. 5. Tarp. 6. Cordage. 7. Rubbing alcohol or something potent for medical.

I always wanted to try winter camping. Winter is my favourite time of year. I have a lot of confidence in myself. I have done a lot of camping so far in my life.

1: Wilson volleyball 2: Spalding basketball ( I like to expose myself to more than one opinions) 3: flashlight 🔦 ( with very short life battery) 4: Ice skates ⛸️ ( use as knife). 5: FedEx mystery package.

[@stevepiazza8770]

If you're not taking gloves, opt for a knife with a standard micarta, g10, or other traditional handle material. Otherwise, you're going to end up with blister issues, which will become infection issues, which might kill you. Your hands will be important tools in this scenario. You don't want to mess them up and not be able to use them.

[@HardCoreBushCraft]

My five items would be 1. Hunting Knife w/ Ferrel Rod 2. Hatchet 3.Handsaw 4. Cooking pot 5. Tarp None of the items I chose are expendable items aka run out. Now the ferrel rod over time will, but if I go with a 6 inch 1/2 dia, it will last a lifetime. All other items I will acquire as I go along.

[@phornthip1991]

1. Good Knife made in Norway or Germany. 2. 30 Meter Paracord. 3. Firerod 4. Tarp 3 x 4 meter 5. Handbook: How to make clean Water. In case I meet in the Wild You, then I can give to you.

[@PandolynTheFantastic]

Imo, drop the tent and grab a settlers tool. You can build anything out of that, then get a metal pot instead of the filter. You can use the sand, rocks, and charcoal (from your fire) to filter the water.

[@nickg505]

I'm still waiting to see someone on naked and afraid to bring a settlers tool as their 1 item. They spend countless hours and calories making shelters...that usually leak

[@AdventureSworn]

Yup. I'd take a water filtration system over a cookpot any day. Anyone whose delt with dehydration in the wild and had to boil water over and over knows what I'm talking about. I personally would have chose a cookpot or metal water bottle over the paracord, but I wouldn't complain with either set-up.

[@slidix4097]

My list: -A good knife -Ferrow rod -sleeping bag -survivorcord -Big heavy pot

[@SurfsupP15]

1.) Hatchet 2.) lighter 3.) Compass 4.) Any food like beef or fish 5.) Of course toilet paper

[@ysfawolfpack]

the 5 C's 1. Container ( stainless pot or thermos) 2. Cordage 3. Cutting tool ( knife ) 4. Cover ( canvas tarp ) 5. Combustion ( ferrocene )

[@SabertoothDeathmouse]

My order was Chopping knife/machete Bic Lighter Cordage Tarp Wide Mouth TeaPot. Can carry embers or store everything but the knife in the teapot for travel is great for cooking and easy to pour or drink from after it cools. Bic lighter because it's more effective in most circumstances under 2 months. And an 8x10 tarp folds small, can actually water proof your shelter effectively, be a good windblock or be used as hammock.
