Let's go with tools: 1 & 3.

Side note: I've had venison jerky. It's great. I ate quite a bit of venison as a kid, and it's still my favorite protein. My maternal grandparents even used to put venison gravy on pancakes, which my granddad would cook at the table, with about half a teaspoon of sugar on the top; I may have mentioned that before. Anyway, about a year into my current job, one of the owners of the company offered me some venison jerky that he'd been given on a trip with a friend. He didn't much care for it. There was about three pounds. It was really good The only time I've seen venison jerky since was while visiting a friend in Hawaii. There was a small butcher shop next to a grove filled with food trucks right across from the McDonalds (which is not decorated like a McDonalds) in Haleiwa. They sold small pouches of venison jerky made from wild deer on the island. According to Google Maps, the butcher shop is now a tattoo shop.
