if you could take 3 things onto a desert island with you what would they be??

Keep it practical.

I'd want a large sharp knife.

A set of strong purpose made clothing.

A large box of matches.

You wouldn't need the matches, they'd run out anyways. It is quite easy to make fire without matches, I use to do it all the time.

I trhink matches make it not only easier, but also quicker.

Once I'd start a fire I'd make sure it stayed fuelled, so at my camp there would only be one fire, constantly running.

However, for when I'd be mobile, I'd use matches, particularily if it were raining.
