Hunting Rifle, pot, first aid kit, and hand saw.

Hunting Rifle: Emergency ranged weapon, but more importantly a SCOPE! Being able to see someone/something at a distance is going to be super helpful. I don't have that much confidence that I could build something like that.

Pot: Storage, cooking, making water, etc. Assuming it has a lid (or I can fashion one), it could also be waterproof storage in times of bad weather.

First aid kit: if you're injured/sick/etc., this is your best chance of survival. Also, gauze has a million in one uses.

Saw: Trying to cut down a tree with a knife will be frustrating, use lots of energy, and has a risk of injuring myself. The saw is a reflective surface (so possible fire-starter), but more importantly it's built to cut things down. Probably the very first thing I would do would be to saw down trees for several things: shelter (palm frond or log shelter), food (maybe from tree, maybe building spears), footwear (make rope from vines/leaves, tie together with pieces of bark or something), tinder (for fire), and traps (creating rope/fishing lines).
