Absolutely agree, However you can go further, Cutting tool(s) & container. Cordage can be improvised, combustion can be improvised. Depends on the woodland your in. A good mixed woodland and your laughing. To be honest if your in an area with good flint, you might be able to do without a blade as well.
Working together will also help keep the number of items used down.
Good luck with it Chaps, look forward to hearing how you get on.

HInge. I like this challenge. I think I will try something like this in the fall (way too hot here now). I was considering that some of the places I camp, hunting for Squirrels, rabbits, several birds, crow, Turkey etc are legal as are fishing. So I was thinking I could score a point for bringing no food. But then a 22 or a shotgun would be considered kit. Likewise a fishing rig. So this would be a bit tougher.
If we were not expecting rain then I could do without the tarp and build a shelter. Or if there were going to be snow likewise.
I will have to think about this.
I also like this and just realized that it is almost a year old! my items would, quite obviously, be:
-knife
-roll of bank line
- tarp
-metal canteen
-ferro rod
tent
knife
sleeping bag
mug
Fortnum & Mason luxury hamper

5 items, eh? Let's see here....
Three season:
~ DD 3x3 coyote tarp
~ fire kit pouch
~ axe or tomahawk
~ rations (that don't require cooking in a pot or pan).
~ sleeping pad/mat
I imagine this configuration could also work in the winter by modifying the DD (stove-jack) for a hot tent setup.
