Survival and Bushcraft go hand in hand with knives! This group is about anything survival/bushcraft! Show us your videos...what's in your Altoids survival kit? What kind of paracord wrap do you prefer for your neck knife? That kind of stuff...
I am looking for a knife that I can take on camping trips and do some bush crafting. I would like to get some input from all of you, on what you think would be the perfect knife. I have had a few suggestions already, but I am not set on a specific knife yet. So far some of the better choices I have heard are, Kabar - Becker - BK2, BK7 and BK9. I have also heard that some of the Esee knives would make a good choice. Another part of this discussion would be, how many of you would consider using a knife for batoning? Give the reasons you would recommend the knife that you suggest. Some of the tasks I would like the knife to do for me would be: trimming small branches, carving, striking a ferrocerium rod to start a fire, possibly batoning and whatever else I might need it for.
So, lets hear your ideas!

Here is the my latest addition to this group, the Becker BK7. I have already decided on my next purchase. Leo point ed out that BHK makes some good bushcraft knives and I have decided to get one for my collection. Since most of my recent knife purchases have been for bushcrafting, I have been buying larger fixed blades. Now I see that there are many needs for a smaller bushcraft knife. I have decided on the BHK Frontier 1. I am saving up money now.

YES! Chant it with me now... BHK! BHK! BHK! BHK!
Blind Horse Knives made the original Pathfinder knife for Dave Canterbury, as you may recall. I believe LT Wright split off & the two remaining partners have now morphed into Battle Horse Knives.
Below is my cherished little Battle Horse... The handle is so incredibly comfortable!

That is a nice looking knife DLKG! I am really wanting to get one for myself. All of the wood projects I have been doing, are getting me closer to getting it. I am afraid that they will be like Lays potato chips. I can't have just one.
