Going to vent on knife and sword makers.

Why do knife makers put a bottle cap remover on survival knives?

'Fighting my way through a jungle, I see a case of bottled beer from 1912. So glad I had my survival knife with a built in bottle cap remover'

Who thought that drilling holes, cutting slots in a knife or sword blades was a good idea?

Hole(y) Toledo !

If the blade is too heavy for you to use, get some exercise.

A floating filet knife?

No one cleans fish while boating.

Drat. Dropped my filet knife in the sink of water. Good thing it floats.

Is batoning firewood in a survival situation a thing? Sawing the logs into neat equal lengths?

Do not ever use a knife to split firewood. Never.

A good way to damage the knife and so lose your most important tool in survival.

A knife is used to cut.

Burn the log from the end or middle. Don't waste calories sawing them. Choose the firewood and tender carefully so splitting it is not needed.

Learn the art of making a fire. Stop watching YouTube for survival training.

A couple from my collection.

Left - Cold Steel Bushman, original from the early 1990s. My first choice in survival knives.

Right - Gerber Mark 2. I bought this in the early1980s. Removed the pistol belt bail. Used to carry under the left arm.
