PathFinder knife

[Tarrodemierda]

So,i thought id start a little thread about this knife ive encounterd,as i havent visited Wilderness Outfitters Archery for a while although i am very intrested in Dave Canterburys way of survival skill teaching and his Youtube videos.

And i have this thread here on Outdoor Edge intentionally as i am intrested of opinions regarding this knife ONLY in outdoor point of wiev,not as puttin it on safe or other way of dust collecting

This knife is made out of 1075 high carbon steel,and pretty big,gurkha style blade with 9" of length.
theyre hand forged one at a time.

As i am fan of big raw knifes(can this even be called as a knife ) im very intrested to get one and i have made just an order to get one.but what do u guys think of this blade,just out of curiocity?

I realise i will be pee´d on cause it aint somethin made out of some hi-tech material and it aint wor whittling toothpicks and other lady-like,so u can leave that whinin off .But as a companion to sak and multitool,or combined with small fixed blade i think this might be good fot those harder tasks.

u se eguys,even swiss exarch likes it!

so im not steppin into cow-landmine then

what do u  like in it Mike?
IMO,i think it will be nice splitter when u check out how the blades weight point is just at its tip,and the curved shape of the handle.

I like it because it's looks to be able to everything a Kukri can, ie drawing, spliting, baton ect, but being in a lighter, smaller package

[Tarrodemierda]

yep,it is very cool design and as i like kukhris vwery much but i dont own any ,i thought this is clos eto those and still has somethin from world of normal knives in it,it would be useful.

u know,ia m searchin for one,but id like to have it in more of a mmiltitary style,without any wood and shiny parts.

My only concern with carbon steel for outdoors use is that the outdoors around here is often wet, and you know what that means.

RUST! 

[Tarrodemierda]

well when knife is used,it won rust,and it aint a problem to oil it,i think,and it sure wont rust through in short time

[AndyTiedye]

  The R-word has been uttered, and all owners of carbon steel knives must immediately anoint them with oil.
