Everyone seems to have the "tools" category covered for outdoors and repairs. The kitchen however depends on what you call tools. A set of good quality knives are a must. As well as quality cutting boards. I use only cast iron, stainless steel and glass for cooking.
I have electric and manual both of each small appliance that I use, ie: food processor, coffee maker, tea pot ...
( I live in south Florida USA so power outages from hurricanes are a thing here.)
Also, a good non electric canner and canning supplies.
Lots of shelves.
