If You Go To The Wilderness To Survive, What Knife Will You Bring?

For people who are used to urban life, living on a desert island is obviously like a sentence of death. However, the appearance of Bell Griles broke people's impression of survival in the wilderness, with skilled survival skills and strong physical quality. Only with limited equipment, even with a survival knife and a flint, you can go into the forest alone, face the difficulties with wisdom and courage and survive. It's exciting to think about it. 

In the equipment for hiking and exploration, the outdoor survival knife is undoubtedly the top priority. Some people even said that if I can only carry one thing for outdoor survival, I must choose survival knife. So, how should we choose an outdoor survival knife suitable for hiking and exploration, and what aspects should we pay attention to?

Of course, a good knife should be strong and tough to prevent rusting. In addition, the blade should not be too heavy, or it will increase the travel burden and be inflexible when used. When choosing an outdoor knife, it will be difficult to decide whether to buy a folding knife or a straight knife. The folding knife is relatively light and convenient to carry. It is suitable for outdoor activities with low intensity such as outdoor tourism. You only need to use the knife to do some simple cutting. In the field of outdoor living, it is generally believed that the straight knife is practical. The folding knife is easy to be damaged if it is folded repeatedly. It is difficult to clean the connection, which may rust. In case of an emergency in which the knife is badly needed, it is undoubtedly more convenient to draw out the straight knife. 

The tenacity and sharpness of a knife are closely related to the materials used to make the blade. At present, the materials of the knife mainly include stainless steel, high carbon stainless steel, Damascus steel, etc. Stainless steel has good anti-corrosion effect, but its toughness is slightly lower. High carbon stainless steel has higher strength and hardness than ordinary stainless steel, but its corrosion resistance is relatively weak. Damascus steel is a kind of steel with patterns on its surface. The knives made of this material are beautiful and sharp. 

Finally, let's talk about some common mistakes in tool selection. For example, many people like to pursue the hardness of knives, but as a large outdoor knife, the hardness should not be too high, because both the mountain opener and the camping axe are rough, and it is hard to avoid bumping. If the hardness is too high, it is easy to crack whether you accidentally cut on a stone or cut animal bones. If the hardness is slightly low, the curling edge can be repaired by grinding a large bluestone, However, once the collapse occurs in the wild, it can hardly be repaired by itself.



Even if there is no chipping, it is inevitable that the tool will become blunt after a long time of use. No matter how hard the tool is, it will also become blunt. It is inevitable that large tools will become blunt due to their high use intensity. However, the tools with high hardness are dull in the field and difficult to polish. On the contrary, they are not as easy to polish as the tools with lower hardness.
