This is going to come off as sarcastic but please don't take it that way.
Why aren't you mentally preparing to shelter in place -or- load up your belonging and evacuate -or- do some expedient repairs on your car/shoes/backpack/home/etc?
I use a pocket knife just about every day. Maybe I could carry scissors, screwdriver(s), a file and several other implements instead but a knife is much handier.
$.02 & YMMV
Not sarcastic at all, thanks. I think if you're sheltering in place or loading up your belongings, you'll have access to knives and pocket knives. The question
was about a Go Kit for residents of Washington DC, which assumes some sort of urban evacuation scenario. You're either leaving because you want to (short deadline
until a bomb explodes) or because you have to (guys in trucks with megaphones imposing martial law and pointing you to Fairfax Co).
Believe me, whatever the government says, I'll have a pocket knife on me when I leave my front door. I'm just wondering why the average person needs a knife in their
GoKit to get out of DC.
