What makes a good (large) survival knife.AVI

How to choose a Bowie or Camp knife for survival or general camping use.
An axe/small knife/machete combination would serve you better if you have the room in your pack, but if you want to carry just one tool, try a well balanced camp knife. The use of these and other outdoor tools will be taught at the 2010 PTI Summer Camp. For more info go to: www.pekiti.com

It is a very nice video indeed. What is your opinion about the Cold Steel SRK that I see on top left of your favourite knives?

[TuhonBillMcg]

@RemzofFrance A good knife, but I would like it better if the shoulders on the tang were not so abrupt in their angle. These days I much prefer the Fallkniven S1.

Blackjacks not defunct! i just received my Blackjack Grunt! you can also go by SMKW (in store or online) and order them still!

[TuhonBillMcg]

@nalday07 Blackjack was started by knife maker Mike Stewart. The company changed hands and the name was dropped for a while, (leading to my comment on the video). Mike Stewart now owns the name again and is making some fine knives with that label.

whats up bud was that sp 53 half flat or half hollow ground? nice vid, you should try an esee junglas its the best mix between bowie and machete, its also american made and and has excellent heat treat and warrenty.the crowl may out chop it just slightly but the junglas is a better slasher and im sure tougher if seen the vice destruction test, not to mention the way it feels in your hand

@broadstreetbully2138 I've owned two esees which I really liked. Someday I'll have to put a junglas on my Christmas list.

Thank you for sharing your thoughts. Very informative, and I learned something about the cut of the tang as well.
