The list author says: "Let's get this straight, there are a lot of "zombie" lists on here, but they all contain a lot of items that are only functional if you have a base camp set up and can afford a little more comfort with your belongings (now reduced to everything you 'own' in the world). My list is comprised of essential, but better yet, practical, items that you should be able to maneuver around in with at least some ease, should a horde of flesh eating biters be close on your heels. Hope this helps, enjoy!"
"I guess we'll begin the list with the pack and some of the things you should include in yours. I chose this particular bag because it is not overtly cumbersome, but with enough pockets to hold some small gear, and is easily removable over the tactical vest featured a little further down"
"Obviously these are nowhere near a five star restaurant, or even Burger King, but when you're on the go and exhausted, these will taste better than anything you've ever tasted before. Stuff a couple of these into your pack before heading out."
"trying to help yourself or someone else with an open wound can be a pretty scary concept. Avoid the pain and debacle of attempting stitching if you aren't trained, and just pop a few staples in from this disposable skin stapler."
"Again, dealing with trauma scenarios in a zombie infestation is like a fish leaping onto a table where a chef is preparing sushi and hoping he doesn't notice it's still alive. treat open wounds quickly and get them clotting and if it isn't a bite, who knows, you may survive..."
"dehydration will kill you weeks before hunger will. make sure that whatever water source you do have isn't pumping your intestines full of harmful dysentery causing bacteria. This simple straw system has a five year shelf life and will nearly completely remove all harmful pollutants and bacteria. Drink up!"
"lots of pockets for ammo and tactical gear, as well as a pistol holster, but does not restrict arm movement, which when smashing zombie skulls, you will find incredibly important."
"In the event of a zombie apocalypse, these things might just save your hide from being gnawed on. While being chased, hide behind a tree or round a corner or fork, simply toss the sound grenade one direction and run the other. Those that don't see you run off will follow the screeching alarm, thinning them out for you."
"keep this attached to your belt in case you need to bury a fallen friend, or get caught ina jam and need a quick weapon (see the war axe-like attachment)."
"when the zombies overrun the cities (and they will), the big brains in Washington may very well decide that all is beyond saving a nuke the whole place. If you are lucky enough to survive the initial blast, then the radiation fallout is going to make you sick. These will help, might want to keep a couple packs handy, just in case."
"you're going to want to have some blades handy, lest your ammo run dry. A dull blade won't do anyone good and will only lure you into a false sense of security. Sharpen all blades with this and some honing oil"
"this could be a zombie eluder's best friend. Small compact design that would allow you to see approaching zombies even in pitch black. Night vision is a definite must for a zombie killer on the go, and these are reasonably priced compared to other N.V. sets"
"don't know what this would be for, but you will be really happy when it saves your life by welding a crucial piece of equipment, or starting a life saving fire. it's cheap and compact, keep one around."
"this hand-cracked radio/ usb/ phone charger will keep your portable gadgets going strong to keep you sane. You'll be incredibly popular when you're the only one who can still charge their iphone to play angry birds, 40 years from now... couple it with the item below for maximum results.."
"a collapsible bow with a quiver and some arrows is a great silent tool to hunt zombies, make sure to get some arrowheads capable of piercing skulls though..."
