… and apart from whatever stuff you’d care to take with you, you could choose only one low D whistle… Which low D would that be?
Heck, ok, you’re allowed to bring another whistle in another key as well. Otherwise you’d probably get dehydrated by only playing tunes in D and G:joy: 
Swayne low D.
Burke B natural.

I don’t think you can have ‘an Ireland’. As far as I know, there’s only one (although the name can refer to at least slightly different land masses depending on context).
I’d bring a flute
I’d say if you were stranded in Ireland, you’d have lots of places to get a whistle! 
However - if it was on an island, I think I’d stick with my Aisling (or maybe a Killarney).

My Colin Goldie, no contest.
MK low D, MK low F, and a MK midgie. The best three whistles I’ve played.
You think so? But I think the OP was thinking of a desert Ireland anyway
Am I stranded on the “Ireland that we dream of?” There may or may not be comely maidens dancing. Accounts differ. I like comely maidens, and would try to charm them with my flute. The Low whistle hasn’t been invented yet
Am I stranded on the Ireland imagined in Irish pubs worldwide? There’s a dusty hurl on the wall and a lot of wood aged to look old and some alleged “irish prayers/proverbs” A guy with a guitar is singing “danny boy.” I would want a sturdy, heavy whistle that could stand up to being sharpened, so I could kill him with it.
If it’s an Ireland in the sun, I shan’t be needing a whistle. I’m ginger and will have heatstroke if it’s more than 20º C.

I was thinking something like that when the thread started: ‘the Ireland of the imagination’ , ‘the Bórd Failte Ireland’, ‘the Hidden Ireland’ and all of those. But I live in the daily Ireland of grey skies where comely maidens and young fellas try to get away as fast as they can.
Just heard a young local girl from a family I know added herself to a long list of young people to take their own lives. It’s not a good day, but a harsh reality in the real Ireland. The Ireland of nightmarish desperation and heartbreak. Comely maidens (amd young men) feeling stranded.
There seems to be plenty of despair among the young here in the States as well. It might be global.
There are a lot of possible Irelands and I don’t feel like I understand any of them all that well. As far as I can tell the Irish don’t either.

I probably should have left the subject alone, or at least not have reacted so soon. There’s a lot to be said about it, but this is not the best place for it. So sorry about that.
I’d take a Copeland low D as the low D choice.
Hmm, my second whistle would be a toss-up between a Timothy Potter or John Sindt soprano D, a Löfgren in A, or a Carbony in G or low F.
I’m glad I don’t have to only choose 2 whistles.
Interesting how my small typo opened up for a completely different kind of sharing environment.
Yeah, mental health issues are very present in Norway as well, although we have all the beautiful lakes, fjords, and fairytales about “nøkken”, who is a water spirit of some sort, playing the fiddle and tries to trick people into his watery underworld. It’s weird times, and we have to take care of each other. My main reason for playing whistle is actually more related to well being and mental health, than the music.
Anyways, I would probably bring my soft blowing Goldie low D, and… Maybe my McManus Bb 
Have a blessed day
I’d like to try a McManus. It seems like everyone loves them.
I would take my MK Pro.
Hornest to say, I have never tried another low D than that one, but I really like it.
I just ordered a McManus blackwood D whistle. We’ll see if I’d take that over one of my MK whistles, or would a wooden one be a bad idea to bring to an uncharted desert island?
I just took a look at his website. Those whistles are nice looking. I am curious to hear how you think they compare to the MK whistles.
