Here are some of the uses for paper clips in a survival situation


  • Splint

used as a splint for your finger or toe. Use the paper clip by Placing it securely against a potentially broken finger or toe and wrap around it with gauze or tape allowing it to heal


  • Dart Needle

used as a weapon in a blow dart needle for self defense weapon. Straighten several of them out and sharpen one end of each one by rubbing it on a rock or any hard surface. Now use a piece of tube, place the makeshift dart in one end and you’ve got yourself a blow dart gun.


  • Pick Locks

being able to open up locks is another use for paper clips. although lock picking requires a lot of practice. You can use 2 pieces of paper clips to make a lock pick tool.


  • Toothpick

Straighten out a paper clip and you have the next best thing to a tooth pick.
