M40's 10 Cent Survival Knife Is it a high end blade? Ummm... not really. Here's a better picture: Okay, so it's a piece of a hacksaw blade.

Hacksaw blades are VERY hard, high-carbon steel. Making the 10 Cent Survival Knife The pack of blades I got had 4 coarse, and 3 each of the medium and fine teeth.

My entire kit is based off of three tiers — one that I carry with me, one that I keep in my car (and sometimes on me), and one that is in my home ready to go in a moments notice if I had to bug out. The Three-Tiered Survival Kit First Tier: This ‘kit’ includes those items that you have with you at all times. Folding Knife: If you’ve ever been in a survival situation (planned or not) you know how essential a knife is.
