When you find yourself in an emergency situation, anything that you have will be better than having nothing at all. While having a fire starter, like from our earlier article “All-Weather Emergency 2-IN-1 Magnesium Fire Starter” can help tremendously by providing you with a flame, you will also want a tool that can get multiple jobs done.
The FiveJoy compact military folding shovel is a survival multitool that any camper would be wise to carry.
