Camp the Tool Nut way with these Great American Outdoor essentials

The weekend may be over, but we're continuing our celebration of the Great American Outdoors here at The Tool Nut with another week of exclusive content and deals to check out.


Last week, we talked about choosing the right type of portable power source for your trip, but that's just one of the many tools you'll need to tackle the Great American Outdoors safely.


Today, let's turn focus onto the gear that'll help you thrive in the wild with some of The Tool Nut's top outdoor essentials.

Milwaukee Class B Type III PACKOUT First Aid Kit

While the Milwaukee Class B Type III PACKOUT First Aid Kit is designed with the jobsite in mind, it has most of the medical supplies you'll need to deal with minor injuries you might face out in the wild. Plus, it comes in an IP65-rated weather-sealed PACKOUT compatible storage case.

Gerber Pack Hatchet

From hammering in tent stakes to chopping small tree limbs or firewood, the Gerber Pack Hatchet is an extremely affordable and versatile tool to have in the wild. Full tang (a single piece of metal) construction makes it both durable and stable, and an over-molded handle ensures a firm grip when you take that swing.

Gerber Truss 17-in-1 Multi-Tool

The Gerber Truss 17-in-1 Multi-Tool is a pocket-sized marvel that boasts a whopping 17 different tools, including pliers, saw, scissors, file, and of course, bottle opener. Great American Outdoors celebration aside, this is a great little multi-tool to keep on hand.

Milwaukee M12 FUEL HATCHET 6 in. Pruning Saw

The Milwaukee M12 FUEL HATCHET 6 in. Pruning Saw is a great addition to your excursion kit. Makes clearing off-beaten paths and roads much quick and easier, but be mindful of the battery life. Bring backups, or a least a generator and charger, so you can actually use it when you need to.

Tackling the Great American Outdoors on a Budget

From camping to fishing, hiking and trailblazing, the right gear will make or break an adventure. It can also be pretty expensive to gear up properly. If you're hoping to stick to a tighter budget for your equipment, consider checking out some of the offers available at our Great American Outdoor deal page.


A great mix of price drops and free gift offers are available, which can not only score you some top-quality gear at a great price, but also help you save a bit in the process.
