What is your Go To Survival Knife?

Recommended Posts

You might want to consider the himalayan imports knifes, they are the best knifes/khukuris coming out from Nepal.

Take a look also this forum, almost every day they post"deal of the day" for  blems at reduce price:

Mine just arrived in the mail. Wow. This thing is a beast. The steel is thick: 1/2 inch at the base. It's 19" long and weighs 2 pounds. The wood handle is in near perfect condition, and the blade has a nice patina and is greasy from storage. It's actually somewhat sharp.

 

I'm going to order another one as a user, and my cheap Chinese machete is going in the garbage.

Schrade SCHF10

 

Just got this the other day. Definitely a sweet blade.

 

 

If it was made of 1095 Hi-Carbon steel like the SCHF9 I would certainly buy a couple of them.  I really like the looks of the SCHF10, and its nicely balanced and it probably would make a decent blade in a humid area with its stainless material, but I am also not too fond of the curve on the blade which makes it hard to sharpen, especially in the field.  The sheath is OK, but nothing to write home about.   The SCHF26 seems to be the same blade, but with a different grip and a lower price point.
