Need your help solving a Riddle!

Hi everybody,

I come to you today asking for help with a Riddle. The capital R ist intentional since this one is really hard to figure out. With the combined might of mobileread the chances might be marginally better, so I'm asking you all for your help.

The Riddle is as follows:

What does a man take along onto that famous solitary island trip?
Two things are given, a pocket knife and a pocket fan (one of these battery driven ones).

The third item is:

1) nothing to make fire
2) no lamp, radio or hanky
3) no toothbrush
4) no batteries
5) no shaving mirror

It is:

1) Something that reminds him of home (Germany, Muensterland (Muenster) is where he lives, he was born in Ibbenbueren and works in Hamburg)

2) it's size is roughly the same as the other two items.

This is a radio quiz which has been running for a while without anybody being able to figure it out. The man in question is called Holger Wemhoff and the radio station is Klassikradio.


I've tried to find an answer, but so far in vain, maybe you can point me in the right direction.

Thanks.
