I find that this gives me a clear path for the bow and also gives me a lot of control on the set.

  • Good points about the progression in knives and fire making. Until you understand how to work he kindling you really can't do much with a spark. I think starting a fire with a single match was a good task set for me as a boy. My first knife was a SAK. And I closed it on my fingers, so +1 on the lock blade. I now like my swisstool and fallkniven f1. If I could justify a third knife it'd be the fallkniven wm1 as a neck knife, but a hatchet or axe is another extra and it's all extra weight. The pl
