Degrees of Preparedness- Level 3

We started off this topic with a discussion of how to prepare for a Level 1 situation followed by what you would need for a Level 2 event.  Today we will talk about preparing for the big daddy, TEOTWAWKI, The End Of The World As We Know It.

This is a good news/bad news scenario.........The bad news is, if a Level 3 event actually happens, our living conditions will revert back to the technology standards of 150 to 200 years ago, and will most likely stay that way for the rest of our lives.

The good news is, that the calamities necessary to cause a Level 3 event are exceedingly rare, and highly unlikely to occur during our lifetimes.  Level 3 prepping will make you and your family as ready as you can be for an event lasting in excess of three months.

Edged weapons for preppers.

Weapons are nice to have around most anytime, but they can be especially helpful (possibly even life-saving) during a survival scenario.  We talked about survival firearms recently, and in this article we will discuss edged weapons that are useful for preppers.

When we're talking about blades, perhaps we should think of them as multipurpose tools that can accomplish a number of things in addition to being "weapons".  I'm not trying to be PC here, either.  Edged weapons can be used to kill, but they can also be used daily for a multitude of non-lethal household or campsite chores as well.  These are the tasks that we really come to appreciate them for.
