Edit: NVM, I went to the coldsteel site, found a nice one, 2.8 mm blade thickness, for $42.

I've never used a bush axe, but a kurki can do the job of a machete and a hatchet and @ $42 it's worth it.

I never go anywhere without my old timer or a lighter. Growing up my dad always told me you never know when you're going to need a knife or fire.

I'm not sure, but the one I have might be illegal to carry. I got it while in the Marines and in order to buy the one I carry you have to be military or law enforcement personnel. It's spring loaded. I have another Benchmade that anybody can buy.

Depends on the state. Fed law makes some allowances and leaves it primarily up to the state (apart from interstate transactions, federal land, and USPS) so your ability to carry/possess such a knife is dependent upon state law. Me, completely illegal.

Also, this is the multi-tool I carry around:

Nice....really like your Leatherman set. I have a Gerber multi tool that I keep in the glove box. However, I keep a set of cheap tools in my work beater, and have a large toolbox I take on every road trip, so I really don't have a use for it outside of the glove box of my truck. I grab it if we go hiking, but now that we have young kids, we don't hike like we used to. When they get a little older, the hikes might pick back up.

Due to the lack of a corkscrew both of these are useless.

RE: Pocketknives - grampahol - 06-22-2016

Cheap little Imperial 4 blade deal from Amazon , but it's razor sharp and comes in darn handy almost every day and I wear an old Invicta watch..(well not that old).. I feel naked without my watch and pocket knife..

The courthouse where my dad grew up (Jackson Kentucky) had to make a rule against whittling because the sidewalks were getting covered in shavings from old men gathering and shooting the shit while they whittled.

My dad was pretty good at whittling. He carved pistol grips, knife and tool handles, and many other items from wood. If we were hanging out in the woods he would often cut a thin sprout or branch and whittle on it just to pass the time as we talked.

Have to carry a knife in my lines of work, have to. Everything from Landscaping, Construction to pretty much Ranching.

Love the Buck, Schrade knives and also carry a leatherman some of the time but it can be uncomfortable...

Not much of a whittler, just have to have one no matter what i am doing day to day.
