The role of a “Survival Knife”

Reality check!

1/ Use your knife to make other tools.

This helps to lessen the need to sharpen what could be your only knife.

2/ Do not use your knife to dig with. This is only for TV stars getting paid lots of money to say and do what TV Producers tell them.

3/ Always immediately re-sheath your knife after using it! Don’t put it on the ground.

4/ What’s more useful than a knife? A digging Stick! A digging stick can be used for:

Finding grubs/worms/insect for bait or eating

Bashing unconscious fish

Bashing thrashing through the bush- there is NO chance of cutting yourself with a stick.

A baton if need be

Cracking open seeds/crustacean/making flour by pounding

Bringing down an animal safely-getting reach.

Digging up edible roots and plants

Proven tool for thousands of years!
