How to judge which knife to choose in which environment

In the wild, choosing a really applicable knife depends on your environment and intended use. About the use, roughly list: rough work, cutting firewood, opening roads, cutting wood to make various objects, etc., fine work, unpacking, cutting meat, separating rope, etc. The former focuses on strong and suitable knife shape to make it have enough cutting strength, while the latter needs to be sharp and flexible. If it is a certain dangerous field activity that takes a long time, the former must be owned. If it's just a relatively petty camping and hiking without even having a bonfire, the latter is enough.

Therefore, the knives we use in field activities should also be selected according to different field activities. Generally speaking, the knives used in the field are nothing more than these three types: machetes, folding knives, and daggers. They all have their own scope of use, constitute a basically complete system, and complement each other.Generally, a small folding knife or a small straight knife is enough for leisure camping.

Knives play an important role in all our survival equipment. Remember that no matter what kind of knife you use, you must not misuse it, and never throw the knife edge to the branches or the ground. At the same time, keep the blade sharp so that it can be used at any time, and clean the blade. If it is not used for a period of time, it should be wiped with oil and put back into the scabbard for storage. When adventuring and closing remote places, we should also develop the habit of checking knives frequently, which should form a conditioned reflex. Especially after difficulties and dangers, we should always pay attention to all pockets and objects, which is the second nature of every explorer.

The straight knife is stronger and more reliable than the folding knife. Compared with the mountain knife, it is more portable and not too cumbersome. It can be used for marking, close self-defense, food slaughter, plant cutting, etc. in the field of survival.
The straight knife is suitable for most of the field survival activities with a low risk factor but a certain degree of survival difficulty. If the field survival you choose is not suitable for too much weight-bearing, but it has a certain risk, then a straight knife with a full keel body, solid, sharp and comfortable grip is the best choice.
