What to look for in a Camp Knife
« on: July 09, 2012, 04:04:00 PM »
I have wanted a good multi use "Camp Knife" for a while now.  So with all the talent here I thought I would ask: What should I look for in this type of knife?  Thanks in advance for any advise or insight you can give me.

One that will do the cooking, too?    :D

When the last buffalo falls on the plains,
I will hunt mice for I am a hunter and I must have my freedom.

Will you be doing any wood cutting/trimming along with cooking chores? Or is it primarily a cooking knife?

Karl, Can I order one of those from you?    :bigsmyl:  

Lin, I guess I hadn't really thought about it.  I typically have a small camp axe or hatchet with me when camping so I guess I wouldn't really need one to cut wood with.
