    From my point of view, the best item is the Swiss army knife, why? Because the box of matches will be useful if you’re in a forest, there you have plants or branches, but in the dessert you don’t have nothing to maintain the fire, and if it starts to rain, the fire would go out.
    And the compass is useful but only at daytime, because when it gets dark you won’t be able to see anything.
    So the best option is the Swiss army knife, to hunt some animals or just to defend yourself from some wild animals

    From my point of view the most important item is the knife, because it’s quite useful, isn’t it?
    With the help of some sticks you can use it to elaborate an arrow. I think that you can also use the knife for hunting or cut the trees for making a shelter, as well as defending yourself from all the dangers that can appear.
    Although the three of they are useful, I definitely take with me the knife.

    If I were lost in the middle of the desert, for me the most useful object would be the compass because it can help you to go somewhere and don’t get super lost as you can return to the initial point thanks to the cardinals points, isn’t it?
    I would never bring with me the box of matches to the desert because basically there is nothing to keep the fire alive, right? So, if for some reason I am not able to choose the compass I’m sure the bunch of keys is such a great option, aren’t I?
    Here it’s why, if you are lucky and find any animal to eat. You can use the bunch of keys to kill it. Or to don’t get injured while you are cutting a cactus to extract the water that it’s inside. What do you think?

      I’m totally agree with you and I also think that the box of matches is not useful becuase they can run out in a few days and after they run out I would have nothing to use to survive.

    In my opinion I will choose the swiss army knife because it’s multipurpose item because take the case that you’re lost in the jungle, with the swiss army knife you can do many things such us cut things,kill animals and many others. In the other hand the box of matches are very usefull but if they get wet or if they end, they are complety useless and the compass is a quite usefull item if you know how it works, in my case I don’t really know how does it works so I wouldn’t choose it. The swiss army knife is the best item of all of the above, isn’t it?

    If I were in the middle of the desert, I think I would choose the box of matches because It’s the most useful, isn’t it?. You can do a lot of things, for example, In the night it will be very cold so I can make a fire. If I kill some animals I can cook them and also if there is a helicopter nearby, I will catch their attention with the fire.

    From my point of view the most important item is a box of matches because in the desert the night is very cold and we will need this object to make a fire and be much less cold and be able to spend the night, You can also light up in the dark of the night or cook some food to avoid being hungry

    In my opinion, the most useful item would be Swiss army knife because I can use it to hunt animals, can’t I? So i would choose that one. The compas would be useful to know where are you going and how come back to your refuge. Finally te box of matches, in my opinion is the less useful because they will end.

    The most important object for me is a knife, because with that object you can do many things, for example protect yourself from dangerous animals, cut things to eat, and I have not chosen matches because you can do it with tree branches.

    From my point of view, the most useful object is the Swiss Army Knife. Its perfect, you can protect yourself, you can cut things like food, you can go hunting with it. Also I think the most useless object here is the compass because its absolutly a bad object in the desert

    Of course the three of them could be useful but if i need to choose one, i’ll definitely choose the swiss knife. From my point of view it is the most useful item since you can use it to defend from animals, hunt animals and cut everything you want. The useless one is the box of matches, It is not necessary to make a fire to be warm, as it is hot there.

    I would choose a knife because with it you can kill animals like scorpions that live in the desert and also defend myself using it as a weapon and I would definitely not choose a box of matches because they are obviously very useful but when they run out, what would you do?
    Otherwise I would also choose a map because It would help me to find my way home.

    If I get lost in the desert, I would choose a knife, to be able to defend myself, kill animals, cut part of my clothes and also with the sunlight and the knife I could make signals and fire and the second item would be the compass since I could turn on the direction I have to go or not to get lost.
    So in my opinion the box of matches would be something useless,

    From my point of view I think that the most useful item is the compass, because you have many options with it. The first option that I think that we all know is for orientation, but apart from that you can do a lot of things with it, can’t you? With the crystal of the compass you can make fire, that is very useful to make your body hotest and to be able to see what is around you in the middle of the night isn’t it?, also you can cut the crystal and make a knife to defend yourself, you can go hunting and you can also make a cabin.
    So I think that this item is much better than the others, because it can save your life in an extremely situation.

    From my point of view, the three objects are very useful, but I would choose the most important object for me, the knife. With it you can cut plants, food even to be able to hunt or even to cut things and create another objective. For this reason the most complete object is the knife, I would take it yes or yes.
