>>2432460>1- How easily does it rust?Not too easily. It's a carbon steel so I would wipe it off when it gets wet, but the coating helps a lot. Just oil ip the edge occasionally and you'll be fine
>2- Bowie or normal? I'm thinking normalIt's purely preference. The bowie is slightly cheaper, but get whichever blade shape you prefer
>3- Anything comfortable to wrap the handle with that you guys would recommend? My brain is telling me to find a bicycle inner tube and use it.Grip tape/hockey tape are ideal, duct tape works in a pinch. I've never used paracord, but I'd assume it works decently well if you wrap it correctly
