Sons of the Forest – All Items Locations
Here is a complete list of all the items and their locations that you can find in Sons of the Forest:
3D Printer (Flask, Mask, Grappling Hook, Sled, Arrows, Tech Mesh)
Your journey begins just south of the large lake on the western side of the island, where you’ll find a bunker housing your first 3D printer. This is one of the most important early-game spots as it allows you to craft a Flask, Red Mask, Grappling Hooks, Sled, Arrows, and Tech Mesh armor. You’ll revisit this location later once you obtain a keycard, which opens up a locked area within the same facility.
Pistol Rail & Grenades (West Beach Camp)
At the West Beach, head toward the music and look for a small camp with scattered supplies. Here, you’ll find a Pistol Rail, a few Grenades, MREs, and medical supplies. This location resets each time you load into the game, making it a useful restocking point.
Pistol & GPS Locator (Dinghy)
Just offshore from the West Beach, there’s a dinghy floating in the water. Swim out to it, being mindful of nearby sharks. Onboard, you’ll discover your first Pistol and a GPS Locator, essential for both defense and navigation.
Flashlight (Torch) & GPS Locator (Hanging Body Cliff)
Near the cliff with the hanging body, cut the rope to release the corpse and retrieve a Flashlight (Torch) and another GPS Tracker. This flashlight is especially helpful for cave exploration.
Machete & Shotgun Rail (North Beach)
On the North Beach, near another potential spawn point, you’ll find a Machete by a dinghy and a second Shotgun Rail at a nearby campsite.
Modern Axe (Campsite)
North of the flashlight location, there’s a campsite that holds the Modern Axe, an upgrade from your starting hatchet and excellent for both chopping trees and combat.
Can Opener (Coastal Camp)
At a small beach camp not far from the machete location, you’ll come across the Can Opener, essential for consuming canned food, as well as some Oysters.
Blazer (Coffin Site)
Exit the cave and head west to a cluster of Coffins in the center of the connecting paths. One of them contains a Blazer, a formal clothing item.
Rebreather, Airtank, Stun Gun & Tactical Jacket (Northern Cave)
Enter the beachside cave on the far north coast. The left tunnel leads to the Rebreather, which is guarded by a shark in the pool. The right path eventually leads to a Stun Gun and a Tactical Jacket. Look out for an Airtank near the start of the cave.
Camouflage Suit (Canoe in Gully)
Descend into the gully near the cove. Inside a Kayak, you’ll find the Camouflage Suit, a useful outfit for blending into the forest.
Shotgun Rail (West of Cove Camp)
A short distance west of the Camouflage Suit, you’ll find a campsite with supplies and another Shotgun Rail, in case you missed the earlier ones.
Tactical Jacket (Beacon Camp)
Near a GPS Beacon, there’s a small camp with another Tactical Jacket, ideal for cold-weather survival.
Can Opener (Waterfall Camp)
Travel all the way south to the Waterfall Camp. If you missed the Can Opener earlier, there’s another one here, along with Golf Balls and other resources.
Stun Baton (Pool near Cave Entrance)
Just outside a northern cave, next to a small pool, you can pick up the Stun Baton, a rechargeable melee weapon powered by batteries.
Rope Gun & Cross (Large Cave System)
Head into the major cave entrance located in the central region. Inside, you’ll find a glowing Cross embedded in the rock. Deeper in, after a long journey, you’ll locate the Rope Gun—an essential item used for ziplines.
Winter Jacket (River Bank West of Rope Gun Cave)
After exiting the Rope Gun cave, follow the river west and cross to the opposite bank. Hidden near the trees, you’ll find the Winter Jacket, perfect for surviving the cold season.
Silencer & Pistol Rail (Helicopter Crash Site near Vampire Lake)
East of the Rope Gun cave lies the Vampire Fang-Shaped Lake. Near a Helicopter Wreck, you’ll find a Silencer and another Pistol Rail, useful for stealth upgrades.
Shovel, Wetsuit, Slingshot & Flashlight Attachment (Mountain Cave)
Head to the cave closest to the mountain crash site. Outside, pick up the Slingshot. Inside, you’ll discover another Air Tank, a Wetsuit, the Flashlight Attachment, and finally, the all-important Shovel—a key item required for accessing bunkers.
Maintenance Keycard, Fire Axe, Tuxedo & Laser Sight (Maintenance Bunker)
With the shovel, dig into the Maintenance Bunker in the north. Inside, you’ll find a 3D Printer, the Maintenance Keycard, a Fire Axe, a Tuxedo, and a Laser Sight.
VIP Keycard, Crossbow, Dress & Shotgun Rail (Restaurant Bunker)
At the northernmost green beacon, use the Maintenance Keycard to access a Restaurant Bunker. Explore to find the Crossbow, VIP Keycard, Dress, and another Shotgun Rail.
Shotgun & GPS Locator (Grave Site)
Use the Shovel to dig up a Grave near the northern coast. Inside, you’ll find the Shotgun and a GPS Locator.
Guest Keycard, Guitar, Chainsaw & Tracksuit (Guest Bunker)
Return to the first 3D printer location and use the Maintenance Keycard to enter the Guest Area. Inside, you’ll find the Guest Keycard, a Guitar, the Chainsaw, and a Tracksuit.
Compound Bow, Silencer & 3D Printer (Southwest Bunker)
Dig into the Southwest Green Beacon Bunker to find another 3D Printer, a Silencer, more ammo, and the powerful Compound Bow.
Leather Jacket (Airstrip Crash Plane)
Visit the central Airstrip and search the crashed Plane for the Leather Jacket. If you already picked it up elsewhere, it won’t respawn here.
Katana, Putter, Golden Armor, Golden Mask & Pistol 2 (East Bunker)
On the east coast, inside a large multi-level bunker, you’ll find your Second Pistol, the Putter, Katana, Golden Armor, and the Golden Mask. Each item is located in a separate room across multiple floors.
Pijamas, Shotgun 2 & Shotgun Rail (East Art Gallery Bunker)
Explore the eastern Gallery Bunker. In the lounge area, grab the Pijamas and head to the bar to find Shotgun 2, more Ammo, Explosives, and another Shotgun Rail.
Putter 2 (Golf Cart, Northeast)
If you want to skip the late-game bunkers, head to the Northeast Golf Cart location just above a river. There, you’ll find a second Putter near the cart.
Putter 3 (Second Golf Cart, Northern Valley)
A third Putter is located near another Golf Cart northwest of a GPS beacon. This one can be harder to find in snowy conditions.
Revolver (Northeast Dig Site Bunker)
At the Northeast Green Beacon, dig to uncover a small bunker. Inside, you’ll find the Revolver lying on the floor in the first room.
