I use the longest bipod legs I can find. In an emergency, I can always deploy the bipod, toss the rifle on the ground, throw a tarp over the whole works, and I have a ready made tent.
I like the idea of this bayonet/alder/devils club cutter, but I don't want to compromise the safety of my shelter. Thoughts?
I think you left out several valuable multi-tool functions: shortening barrels for getting through the alders; latrine digging, trenching around the tent, or even prying rocks out of your bed; your blue tarp should make it very difficult for bears and wolves to get a good purchase on your hide...
