Now you need to buy some Axes
That is actually a pretty good combination. The plastic sheats on the mora and hultafors areButt ugly and noisy, but the knives are great. (ray mears use them for his survival classes) The climber is a great EDC tool.
I have fixed it for you Marty How about a fixed blade for campingAnything by Mora or hultafors, great knives (don't judge them by their price!) http://www.heinnie.com/Knives/Mora-Knives/c-1-92-304/http://www.heinnie.com/Knives/Mora-Knives/Mora-Companion-Carbon/p-92-304-7173/http://www.heinnie.com/Knives/Mora-Knives/Robust/p-92-304-8336/http://www.heinnie.com/Knives/Hultafors-Knives/c-1-92-913/http://www.heinnie.com/Knives/Hultafors-Knives/Hultafors-Heavy-Duty-Knife/p-92-913-6866/(might be cheaper elsewhere) And a Climber http://www.edcsource.com/Victorinox-Red-Climber-new--free-UK-post,name,113152,auction_id,auction_detailsAltogether About 20 -25quid inc This probably isn't helping
So he comes here asking for advice on a folding knife or a multitool, and our best advice is to buy a fixed blade knife and a SAK he already own....
And an Axe!
Am I best just using any old knife sharpener, or the Spyderco one that was mentioned before?
Oh yeah, just curious, do any of you UK'ers ever carry around locking blade knives as EDC's? Thanks for all you help so far btw, really appreciate it.
I'll have a look into some ceramic ones then, if you say they're best for starting out. I saw a Gerber 'pocket' one for like £5, but I have no idea if it will be on any use. I dunno why I keep finding Gerber stuff. *shrug*
Also seen a Lansky 'Quick Fix' pocket sharpener. I know these are pockets sharpeners, but would they be any good at touching up my current knives?
