Recommended Types of survival/hunting knife?
Hi,
I have never bought a knife before however I have come to the stage where it would be a really good idea for me to get one, due to hiking in the wilderness, camping and other outdoor activities.
I was looking to get a FIXED blade knife, that will not rust, is good for general wilderness/survival tasks, and would be able to be used in combat with say an aggressive animal.
Basically a good all purpose knife.
I would like it to be around 3 inches in blade length to keep in context with laws.
What are good knife manufacturers and types of knife as well as websites to buy from.
Thanks!
I dont actually hunt i just meant a general all purpose knife.
Iwas thinking seal pup 4.85inch
First, check-out the website called knifetests.com . It's has a host of videos that are done by amateur knife enthusiasts, where they torture test all of the popular outdoor survival knives. The nice thing about it is that they are not proverbial protitutes to the knife companies. Therefore, all of their testing is done in a manner to be fair and impartial to all brands of knives.
Second, look into the Schrade Extreme Survival series of knives. I've purchased a few different models of these off of eBay for under $50 each, and can tell you that they are a heck of a lot of knife for the money. They are indeed made in China, but so are so many other branks of knives these days. What Schrade basically did was copy the designs of some other well respected survival style knives and made affordable copies using quality materials.

Wilderness Survival Tips : Using a Compass
Does anyone have any simple outdoor activities I could use for a weekend program for a group of campers?
I have already thought of a nature hike, stream tour, history tour, campfire, wilderness survival, etc. I need program ideas that will not use a whole lot of previous knowledge, something I could research quickly and easily understand. The program has to last at least one hour, be educational, and generated towards all ages. I am working with limited resources.
Can you get volunteer helpers? When I did a Girl Scout day camp, I got a fish and wildlife officer to come with his "fish catching boat", in which he'd caught some fish, which he then used to do a program on live, local fish for the kids.
I also got a ranger to bring owl pellets, and disect them with the girls. This is something you could do yourself, if needed. They come with instructions, and a list of wht you might expect to find inside. You can buy them on line.
Archery is very cool. Get a boy scout or girl scout certified archery instructor to bring gear and teach the course. Safety will be strongly enforced. I used older girls who were good archers to help out the instructor, who happened to be a watercraft safety officer.
Set up a "swap" station, where each kid can make a couple of swaps. You can kill 30-60 minutes easily this way.
When I run a camp, I like to rotate the kids through stations, each lasting about half-an-hour. Firebuilding, cooking, crafts, archery, plant identification, tree hike (identifying trees), fishing (if there is a pond handy), maybe a kickball game. Get lots of help...that's key to success and your sanity!
