Choosing A Survival Knife

A good survival knife is the most important item of your outdoor gear. Your selection of the best survival knife for your individual needs must be based on a knife that features solid construction, proper materials, workmanship, and function. The best survival knives have to be versatile in the number of things they can do with careful consideration to size and weight. The ideal survival knife blade length should be somewhere between four and six inches in length. This size will handle just about any survival situation. A small Swiss Army knife with tools is also worth considering in addition to the large knife. Look for knives that feature full tang construction, these are knives that are made from one piece of metal that extends from the blade tip into the handle for maximum strength and durability.
