I keep this one in my Jeep for emergencies paid less then $12 for it back in the 90's. I have to admit that bang for the buck it's hard to beat a CS Bushman. This isn't my best Knife but it takes a beating and comes back for more. Definitely got my money's worth out of it.
Jeep the SAK of the auto world or is it SAK the Jeep of the Knife world?

This should give you all a laugh. It's long gone now but the very first "survival" knife I bought was in the early 1980's & was the Marco Polo  :ahhh
None of your hollow handle Rambo rubbish for me!

If it's hanging out in the woods, living off the land, I might opt for one of these and a good hatchet. A couple of Vics wouldn't hurt either.

If I had only one to do everything...wood processing, shelter building, hunting, protecting myself, it might be this big camp knife.

 8)  I have a couple of those rusty Bushman waiting for a diet Coke bath and a couple of hoe handles bought (you use hoe handles because they have greater lateral strength than a shovel handles for swing cuts, or so I'm told).  :whistle:
