You're stranded on a deserted island. You can only choose 4 items. Explain your decision.

Flare Gun: So I cab possibly flag down a ship or plane and start a fire.
Tent: For shelter.
Axe: It's a good tool for cutting and possible defense.
Fishing rod: So I can catch food.

Can someone explain why you would choose the knife over the axe?

It would seem to me that the axe has way more utility.
Wild animal comes and attacks you, you don’t have the same leverage and agility to do damage with an axe that you would with a knife

Tent - shelter
pot - boil water
Knife - self explanatory
Torn between mirror (fire, signaling) and first aid (all them small cuts in a humid jungle is an easy way to die). Prolly roll with first aid

Compass, Boat, Phone and First aid Kit. you can create makeshift versions of the other essentials (knife, shelter, pot, bottle) :yeshrug: . A phone with a bar signal could potentially save your life and if that doesn’t work I can use the boat and compass as a last resort

ax - serves the purpose of the knife while being able to chop would
tent - protection from the elements.
pot - being able to boil water, catch crustaceans
matchbox - only problem is that is a finite resource

Axe, tent, bottle, fishing rod

All things the are necessary to live, all things that don’t “run out” like flares, sunscreen, insect repellent, or anything with batteries.

Fire can be made with some work.

Those 5 things and you can survive
