But do men really need to shave in a survival situation?
Tried once for about 10 days to grow a beard, but failed miserably because of the grotty feel.
mine is a little more Spartan... would add dental floss, medicated baby powder, some topical antifungal (I live in Florida)and regular foot powder, heavy duty toe nail clippers
An antifungal foot powder would be nice but is a little bulky and heavy. I haven't really had any problems with athletes foot (X Static woolen Socks or equivalent silver impregnated socks really help), but if the feet get a little funky then a foot rub made from the small bottle of Bog Myrtle (from the FAK) would be used in a higher concentration if the Bog Myrtle soap wasn't cutting it.

Dental floss is a good idea, I think its in the FAK. Would some powerpro spectra braid fishing line (18lb test) from the fishing kit double up, but without the minty taste?
As an aside. Keep an eye on the deodorant expiration date (if any). Expired deodorant smells funky.
There was no expiration date on the Nivea Spray deodorant. The propellant was butane so could also double up as a useful fire starter or keep away snakes James Bond style.
