The Iceberg Hermit
A fantastic read. Written for young adults - but I remember reading this around the same time I read Hatchet. This book as always stuck out in my memory as a great book. You can get it on amazon for next to nothing, too.

Title | Building A Survival Arrow
Description | Get your flashlight here: http://amzn.to/2d3Wukd Thrunite Official Store: http://www.thrunite.com/ (Buy here you will save 5% by using a coupon code: THRUNITE) In this episode I build a survival arrow from a hazelnut shaft, a tip of tin can, crow feathers and self made stinging nettle cordage. It is a pretty good arrow altough green arrows flex a little bit too much. The steel tin is not the sharpest but it is not meant for hunting big animals. This tip is for stunning small animals like squirr...

The Postman is a good read though its more dystopian future than hard core survival. Still a great book.
To answer your questions directly.
Yes you can eat cat tails, yes you can make birch bark tea. In fact you can order birch bark tea online if you wanted to.

The medicinal teas - Rosehip and Reshi mushrooms both have uses;

Far North was a book I read as a kid that is exactly like this. 15 year old kids plane goes down in the Canadian wilderness. Him and his friend have to survive the bleakness of nature. Reminds me of the Long Dark at times.
It’s a Blackwidow X Chroma Mercury edition by Razer that I customized to look like the aurora whenever I boot up the game. It’s hella cool. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B072JWR7Y5/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_hws8Bb0ZV9DR1
Nice!
My Condor Bushlore knife really reminds me of the Hunting Knife:

The absolute madman!
No but honestly I like this idea. I think you could have 2 different styles, a "stalker" and "Interloper" style - With Stalker you would get some preparedness, while Interloper would be mostly scavenging based.
Say for instance, on Stalker - You get an axe, hunting knife, Fire striker, Ushanka, Balaclava/scarf to cover the neck and face that isn't protected by the Ushanka (That Ushanka is rated for upwards of -40c/-40f), insulated boots or hiking boots, woolen thermal undergarments, a sweater, Jacket (US M65 Cold Weather Field Jackets are pretty good down to near negative Fahrenheit/-18c), Milsurp Winter Weather gloves, snow pants and 2 pairs of wool socks. 2 canteens with a capacity of 1 liter (0.26 gallons each) and 3 days worth of MRE's. And maybe a sleeping bag.
That's enough clothing to avoid frostbite/hypothermia if you don't sleep in the open, and food/water to get you some time to find things, but not enough that it'd be a "camping" trip.
Decent novel about this scenario written from the point of view of the Amish:
