Hi everyone;

I'm a volunteer firefighter/paramedic from Portugal. I deal with emergencies for a living, so I have no interest in "tacticool" gadgets or hobby-like gear. Im building a BOB and i want your help.

I've my own trauma kit. For the rest of the kit, I would like to know what you guys think the absolute top 10 essentials.

Specifically, I would like To know, what materials or specs I should look for (ex: for a knife, which steel? for a backpack, what denier cordura?) and what I should expect to pay for which item (ex: for a knife at least 40eur/dollar with X spec)

Thank you for the help. Stay safe (especially now)!
