    When I went through Army wilderness survival course a buddy who was an E7 18 Bravo in 5th Group advised me not to take a big single blade sheath knife that other guys typically carry on their one knife packing list. He advised me to take a Victorinox Swiss Army pocket knife that includes the wood saw blade as my one knife allowed on the packing list. I was able to complete all bushcraft & survival tasks before my peers whom brought a fixed single blade sheath knife. The spine on the wood saw blade strikes a ferocium rod well. The two knife blades, the awl /reamer, cork screw and even the tweezers along with the wood saw allowed me to do everything required. I can use the pocket knife blade to quickly carve a wedge to split fire wood so never had to baton my knife. The wood saw cut notches perfectly.

    Agreed. I think a Multitool of some sort and a simple folder can do a lot. I carried a Leatherman Super Tool 300 and a Benchmade Griptilian through training and used those for basically everything. The “knife” I was issued was a Gerber FML. The only thing it was good for was digging a hole. It rattled when I shook it and the serrations were sharpened off from repeated use.

    I agree with the Swiss Army knife to take with you, mine is the fieldmaster model. A great pocket knife that does everything. However I feel better with a straight edge knife as well, mine is the Gerber Strong Arm that I have mounted on my backpack with my skill set. The Strongarm isnt the most popular knife but it does bushcraft duty also. I feel better with both.

    @@garyabernathy6225 There are probably better, more sturdy options than a Swiss Army. Clay Hayes won "Alone" with the Leatherman P4 and seeing the things he did with that, I have a hard time believing any SAK I've ever had would stand up to that abuse.

    The UK is very oppressive with knife regulations, so a Swiss Army style is often, legally the safer choice if going anywhere like hiking trails, where other people around. I keep a Mora in my pack, for more remote places, but not on display, if a single night wilcamp, I may dispense and just take a leatherman or Swiss army.

    At first glance I thought that the knife was a Mora Bushcraft Black, but when looking more closely it seems clear that the knife is a Terava Jaakaripuuko 110 carbon steel blade from Varusteleka of Finland. Very good knife to own for most situations.

    Love the military style of teaching…Corporal’s Corner was my introduction to KZread some years ago (I’m an old fart) and I was immediately drawn to the no-nonsense style that I remember from the Army. I didn’t care for the peace-time Army of the 80’s, too interested in buffing floors and shining boots than being good at your actual JOB, but I’ll say one thing, the Army knows how to beat a skill into you! Glad you made it to retirement which I hope is many more years than you served! The Pathfinder School is blessed to have you.

    Very pro vid again, Skipper, T Y! Great knife & sheath. I am always reminded of the utility of a couple of Ranger Bands to secure a knife handle, especially for river trips. A short lanyard from the pommel gap to a quick-release device on the belt or sheath is also a possibility. The knife needs to be 100% secure, but also quickly deployable. For splitting kindling quickly under emergency conditions I will always prefer my camp axe or hatchet, but efficiency of carry burden can also take priority. My belt knife is too often for carry convenience my folding utility knife in a covered Cordura sheath, with my fixed blades in or attached to packs. In a canoe I most often reverse that. Generally a knife is a modest weapon, but beats nothing.
