Tips for Choosing a Survival Knife

Article Category: Advice

Author Name: Jeff J Jones

One of the most important tools that you should bring when you go hiking or camping is a survival knife. Having a knife is important since it can do a lot of things. You can use it for preparing food, cutting materials for your shelter, or even protecting yourself. You should not even consider going on a survival trip without a knife.

You can buy a knife from any survival shop or shops that sell knives. You can also purchase from a website or offline. Whatever you decide to do, just make sure that you consider the tips outlined in the paragraphs below.

Make sure that you choose the right sized survival knife. It is important that the knife can be easily carried. You should also choose a knife that you can clip on your jeans waistband or on your belt. This makes it easier for you to access the knife whenever you need it. If you want to clip it near your body, just make sure that you cover it with a knife sheath to protect yourself from the blade.

Choose the right kind of blade for your survival knife. The blade is the most important part of the knife because this is what does the cutting. Do you want a straight or serrated blade? Do you want a long or short blade? A straight blade is much easier to sharpen than a serrated blade. A knife with a short blade is easier to carry and use than a knife with a long blade. The blade should also have the right thickness to withstand even wood chopping. You do not want a flexible knife that bends easily. These things are important to consider when it comes to choosing the right knife for your wilderness trips.

The handle is also an important consideration. Make sure that the handle has a nice grip. Try to hold the knife before making a purchase to ensure that it feels comfortable when you are holding it. Make sure that the handle is not hollow. A knife with a hollow handle gets broken easily than a knife whose tang (the metal part of the knife, which includes the blade) extends to the bottom of the handle.

The material used for making the knife should also be considered. For the blade, you can choose something that is made of either stainless steel or carbon steel. Stainless steel is more durable and does not rust. On the other hand, carbon steel retains its blade edge for a much longer time. For the handle, you can choose either wood or plastic. Wood is more durable and looks more elegant but plastic is cheaper.

When selecting your survival knife, always go for the knife with the most reasonable price. Do not buy those really cheap knives or they will end up broken after your first use. On the other hand, do not buy an overly expensive knife or you will end up with a broken wallet. You have to look for something that meets your needs and at the same time keeps your wallet intact.
