Etón Raptor

This rugged all-in-one charges gadgets, tells time and temp, has an AM/FM/WB radio, compass, altimeter and flashlight. Most importantly, it has a bottle opener so you can pop open a cold brew.

PocketToolX Piranha

The pocket-sized Piranha multi-tool certainly looks like it’s got a mean bite, sporting a clever open wrench, bit driver, and bottle opener among other useful things.

Patagonia Travel Belt

Made from fast-drying, heavy-duty nylon webbing, the simple yet tough Patagonia Travel belt features a concealed 19″ pocket to stash a spare key, some extra cash or small valuables.

Motörhead Messenger Bag

Show your brethren that you bleed metal too with Chrome’s sturdy Motörhead Messenger Bag, built with lots of pockets to stash stuff, including your PDA, kicks and six pack.

Tsovet SVT-AV76

A well-done combination of modest colors and a bold build, the SVT-AT76 is made of gun metal and stainless steel with an Italian calf strap and luminous blue markers.

Fox 40 Sharx whistle (Ear-Piercing Emergency Whistle)

With a screech more ear-piercing than a 5-year-old girl’s, the to-be-released Fox 40 Sharx whistle is said to be heard for miles over ambient sounds. Whether or not those ambient sounds include the noise of downtown New York or the serenity of a mountain lake is unknown. But at 120 decibels — a household smoke alarm is about 100 decibels — it’s bound to be heard.

The company’s pea-less whistle — no loose plastic sphere inside — uses a dual-chamber design to emit its painful sound.

Gerber Crucial tool (Minimalist Multi-Tool)

A butterfly-opening multi-tool in Gerber’s line, the Crucial is built for the outdoorsperson who wants basic features and nothing more. Weighs just 5 ounces and includes a pliers/wire-cutter, a blade, and little else.

Its straight and serrated locking blade easily opens using one hand and your thumb. There’s a flat-head and Phillips screw driver. The tool includes a carabiner clip that doubles as a bottle opener.

Attach the tool to the exterior of a pack or a belt loop with the clip. Or, the Crucial also has a belt clip. Eliminating one or the other could save more weight. But on my scale the tool was true to Gerber’s spec at 5 ounces.

The Crucial comes in a stainless steel/black look or stainless steel/green.

Project X Stealth Series

The Submariner Stealth MK III has a satin-finish case, while the MK IV has a black carbon coated case. Both have all-black bezels, G10 NATO Strap and the STEALTH name on their dial and back.

Zilla Tool Jr.

If Godzilla had opposable thumbs and wasn’t a high-rise-destroying monster, he would get him the Zilla Tool Jr. The black on black tactical tool has an oxide-finished blade on one end and a needle-nose plier on the other. It also features a wire cutter/stripper, screwdriver and a bottle opener that’s perfect for that beverage.

But one critical and important skill to keep yourself alive is how to get a clean, drinkable water. There are tons of methods to do this, but why take the risk when you can bring along the Katadyn Pocket Water Filter? The Katadyn features a ceramic water filter which can hold up to one liter of water per minute and eliminates all foreign elements and parasites. Its outer body, on the other hand, is made from high-grade aluminum to ensure durability. Now, you’re really to take on the world’s most dangerous places with this baby.
