Being a FL resident, I've had extra provisions, batteries, water etc. for a long time. Also a survival kit that I have compiled over the years capable of keeping me alive in only minor discomfort should I ever need it.

What surprises me though is that lately, survival information is everywhere? On TV, books, videos & magazines. It's as though it has become the nations latest craze, sorta like building a bomb shelter in your backyard was back in the fifties and I can't help but wonder why?

Are we becomming overly concerned about some cataclysmic disaster, paranoid or just hoping for the best while planning for the worst? Has all of this survival interest taken place because of the way that things are going in the world economically?

Don't get me wrong as I've always believed that being prepared and a little paranoia is a good thing but as of  lately survival seems paramount to a large segment of our population?

As far as the perfect survival knife goes, I think almost any decent blade can serve as that under an emergency situation. Even a cheap knife is better than no knife although I have my own idea as to which ones I would want to have on me if the SHTF.
