Knives always get a lot of response. I'm less sure about flashlights. Lately there's been a lot of traffic on the subject, but we go for months without much.

Not too long ago, after having gotten in on some good deals on electronic stuff through the forums on slickdeals.net, I suggested a section for "deals" here, where anyone could post information on good deals they found on survival-related equipment. We all shop anyway, why not share?

But, it got exactly zero response, so I guess I'm a minority of one in thinking that it was a good idea.
