I'll assume I have my normal stuff on... hiking boots, belt, socks, weather appropriate clothes, pocket knife, hat, watch etc

In order of importance to me

1. water bottle in Pouch w/ cup (is this cheating, are the cup and pouch separate items?)
2. 12" machete in sheath wrapped in 550 cord (a machete is better than an axe around here)
3. Fire starting kit in pocket on the water bottle sheath
4. First aid kit
5. hammock and tarp or bivi bag depending on time of year (I live in the deap south)
6. Katadyn water filter (the water bottle pouch has a  bottle of WP pills in it also, but this is better)
7. fishing kit (what is going to get me the most food around here, but I could try my hand at building a wier)
8. water bladder combo back pack
9. mess kit filled w/energy bars
10. wrist compass (The watch will do for that in a pinch but this is better)

3.  Remington LED flashlight.
4.  Tactical rig with 1-quart strapped on it.
5.  '550 cord
6.  fire-starting kit complete with a Ziploc baggie of drier lint.
7. ammo
8.  fighting/field knife
9.  rations in the drag bag (mayday survival)

There are a lot of common answers on this thread, that should tell us something as preppers.  Overall, great thread!  JohnnyMac had an awesome 10th choice, Giggedy!

Agreed. The 5 common items i think were seeing most of are from most important to least important:

1) Cutting tool
2) Combustion (Fire)
3) Container
4) Cordage
5) Cover

with #1 you can do bassically all the rest if your good(not really me yet). Its also the most difficult to make in nature.
