Even if Christmas Day has gone and passed, that doesn’t mean the gift-giving should also cease. If you have yet to do your Christmas shopping or forgot to include your prepper friend in your list, you can still do some last-minute holiday shopping. This short list of prepper gift ideas will hopefully make it easier for you to choose what to give.
Fire Starter
Any prepper or a survivalist knows the value of fire. If you value the person you’re doing you’re last-minute Christmas shopping for, might as well get them something that will keep them alive in case of an emergency situation.
Do you know that the tip of the shoelace is called an aglet? And do you know that you can start a fire with an aglet? Yep. This innovative piece of survival gear should be on your list of prepper gift ideas now that you’re scrambling for a gift.
This set includes a pair of 550 lb. paracord fashioned into shoe laces, built-in flint rods in the aglets, and a couple of striking bars that act as shoelace anchors.
There’s nothing more ideal than to have fire starters among your prepper gift ideas. This magnesium fire starter from Survival Frog is weather resistant and windproof so you’ll have little difficulty starting a fire under harsh conditions. Aside from that, it also features an emergency whistle and a compass.
Tactical Pen Knife
If you’re looking for prepper gift ideas that anyone can carry for their protection, this tactical pen knife from Survival Frog fits the bill.
For only $19.97, its owner will have something pretty and useful to use when they’re being harassed or even attacked. It looks like an ordinary pen but a simple maneouver will expose a tactical knife that will make bad people think twice about victimizing you. Of course, one would benefit from undergoing training on how to put knives, including tactical pen knives, to good use.
The 5.5-inch tactical pen knife weighs only 0.6 ounces but is made of durable aircraft-grade aluminium. The serrated blade, meanwhile, measures 2.5 inches and comes with a pretty sharp point.
Tactical Flashlight
When it comes to prepper gift ideas for some last-minute Christmas shopping, you can’t go wrong with a flashlight, particularly the tactical kind.
Anyone who receives the Mini Tact Tactical LED Flashlight for Christmas will definitely be grateful. It will come in handy as an everyday carry item. Use it in the dark, during power outages, and when you need to look for something under the couch. Best of all, you can use it to defend yourself against would-be attackers. The light is bright enough to temporarily blind your attacker giving you time to escape. It’s also strong enough to leave the attacker in pain when used a weapon for self defense.
Neck Knife
Survival Frog brings you another piece of survival gear that should be on top of your prepper gift ideas list.
This neck knife comes with a 5.5-inch knife with a 2.9-inch stainless steel fixed blade and a knife sheath with a navigational compass, signal mirror, fire starter, and a knife sharpener. The ball chain, which you place over your neck, can also be used in any emergency situation.
Emergency Whistle
Counter the catcalls and keep the harassers at bay by blowing your own emergency whistle. This particular emergency whistle from Guardian comes five different features, all useful in one’s survival. This makes it a must-have in any list of prepper gift ideas.
The Guardian 5-in-1 Survival Whistle, worth $9.97, is equipped with a compass, signal mirror, flint fire starter, and a waterproof container, aside from the whistle, of course. Plus, its lanyard can be used for any emergency situation such as tying the hands of a perpetrator while you wait for the authorities or setting up a trap to catch animals for food.
RFID Blocker
You shouldn’t just be wary of getting robbed or mugged. Some criminals are using technology to steal something without you knowing it. That said, this set of four Safe Wallet RFID blockers is one of the best last-minute prepper gift ideas you can think of.
For just under $10, you can give the gift of security to four prepper friends or even to those who are not into prepping. As a matter of fact, these wallet shields would be the perfect prepper gift ideas for your officemates.
Powerbank
For just under $20, you can gift the EasyPower Solar Powerbank Phone Charger to your favorite prepper. A solar charger is a great device to have, especially when traveling, hiking, backpacking, or camping. This no-slip waterproof powerbank will keep you from worrying about your phone or other devices running out of juice, which is something you need in emergency situations.
A powerbank that charges your phone and keeps you warm? That’s the perfect thing to have when you’re lost or trapped somewhere cold.
The Quick Heat Hand Warner and Powerbank originally retails for a shade under $30 but you can get it for $24.97 right now. In other words, now is the perfect time to get one for your prepper friend. Use its 5,000 mAh lithium-ion battery to charge your smartphone while also getting 104 to 140 degrees Fahrenheit of heat.
Paracord Bracelet
Wondering what to give your patriotic prepper friend? How about a paracord bracelet in the colors of our dear American flag?
The Red, White and Blue Patriotic Paracord Bracelet is made of 10 feet of 550 lb. paracord, which increase up to 70 feet when you use the inner strands.
The Patriotic Paracord Bracelet is also the best gift you give if you wish to help our brothers and sisters who laid life and limb for the country. Every purchase of this product sends much-needed help to the Wounded Warrior Project.
With the Christmas countdown winding down really fast, you can take advantage of this list of prepper gift ideas to do your last-minute shopping. Another product you may want to take a closer look at is this solar air lantern also from Survival Frog.
