Ok, here’s a quick note on Target. I go to Target and check out their 1.00 aisle for survival stuff. I’ve found emergency blankets, cold compresses, first aid kits, burn kits, bug bite kits, and some great zippered bags that look like a small shaving kit bag. I’ve even found compasses with whistles there. But the reason this gets posted on a knife site is because I found some 1.00 knock-off swiss army knives. True, they aren’t the greatest knives around, HOWEVER… They would make great trade in a “The Zombies Are Coming!!” scenario and if you build a BOAT “Bug Out Altoids Tin” they are great to stick in there. Here’s a pic of the knife and the bag. Not Bad For A Buck!!

You can truly find some cheap knives out there that temporarily can be useful. The biggest problem I find with surivival gear from cheap sources is durability. The cheaper equipment dulls faster, breaks easier or just falls apart compared to the more expensive gear that built to last.
