I agree with Brian, a yellow Pacific or Atlantic Salt SE would be a good choice. Next one I'd want would be a se Lil Temp.

If it were truely needed, I would really like to have a few. My first pick would be my PE Manix, the size and overall strength would be invaluable. Second would be my para-military, because it is my EDC and I would be lost without it. Third would be my SE Jester an a para-cord around my neck, because you never know.....
Special thanks to Bill W. for all of his inspiration and guidance.

Do you know Bill ?

I would pick a Lil Temp just because in a hurricane area your big risk is getting caught up in a flood of some type. Since the Lil' Temp would rather cut your pants with its clip rather than let go, it would be an excellent choice in terms of not loosing it while floundering around in flood water. :o Too me just about any :spyder: would work good...I hate to have only a stainless steel handle of any type just for the likelihood of loosing it under stress conditions is higher than some of the more "grippy" materials.

Well I just got the call. Be at work at daybreak and pack for a week.

I'll have my new blood brother (bit me for the first time tonight) Assist I close at hand 24/7, and a MeerKat in each pocket for the duration.

God I hope we can help.
