•These knives
•Rigid frame mountain bike with fenders, solid rubber tires, chain repair kit with several extra chains, and panniers for front & rear wheels.
•Halligan bar
•7" long needle nose pliers
•Bearded hatchet/adze with wood handle
•2lbs ball peen hammer
•3lbs cross peen hammer
•2' crosscut saw
•4.5' one-man tuttle tooth crosscut saw
•Double bit working axe with wood handle
•Fine & course bastard, round, and triangle file set
•Compound-action aviation snips/shears for 2mm thick sheet metal
•2 whetstones, honing strop, honing paste, and mineral oil
•Baselayer and camo clothing all in merino wool.
•Camo linen clothing
•Leather outerwear lined with wool insert
•Deep tread, flat-bottomed, mid-calf high, leather boots
•#5 cast iron skillet with lid
•5 quart titanium stock pot with lid
•Full-sized rocket stove
•Zeiss Victory TFL 8X32 binoculars

That's off the top of my head. The extra weight is fine since everything is strapped to the mountain bike most of the time. I do a lot of bushcraft, hunting, gathering, etc and can make fire, cordage, traps, etc second nature now. I should be able to make most anything I don't have and travel quietly and quickly.

>If you carry only one fixed blade on a several day outing, what would it be?

"Benchmade 162," if I could afford it. Otherwise, a similar knife I'll be making for myself with 2mm thick blade.

>If you carried two fixed blades, what would they be?

The above plus a spoon carving knife. Which I've already made, but I'll be making another, "soon." I'm also gathering materials to make a folding knife similar to an Opinel #0.8, but using friction to lock instead of an actual lock.

While out hunting I can use the Benchmade 162 style knife for skinning/butchering I also have an ulu and skinner neck knife both of which I made.

>pic of full tang Bowie knife

Looks functional. Certainly for knife fighting with that hilt and tapered-rounded handle.

I think these two in S30V steel are the best all around designs you can possible own. They are not cheap, but lack all those bells and whistles that can compromise the tool.

The Buck 110 is a great pocket knife. The Benchmade 162 is also a great fixed blade knife. Both knives compliment each other really well. Both designs are as simple as possible without special gimmicks in their blades which would ultimately weaken them. If you can find cheaper knives with the same design and high quality, go for them. Keep in mind the type of steel used for the blade plays a major role in how well the knife will perform beyond its mere design. S30V stainless steel should be what you are looking for and that is expensive. The Buck 110 comes in 2 versions, one is C30V steel and costs quite a bit of money while the cheaper one uses 420HC steel. The Benchmade 162 is also S30V steel.

Whatever you do, stay the fuck away from Chinese made knives and their steels. There are several types but most are just 7Cr17MoV, 8Cr13MoV, or 9Cr18MoVwhich are often abbreviated to only the first bit like 9Cr or 7Cr17. When reviewers say, "it is comparable to ___," which they list a German/USA/whatever steel they are lying through there teeth, unless ____ = shit. Because Chinese steels are shit.

As for your dilemma of what to buy instead of a knife, books you can get for pretty cheap unless they are for university classes, or even free if you get digital versions, camera film is getting more expensive and is a consumable that you'll use up soon enough. I would go with getting the tool, the knife that is. It will last your lifetime and you can pass it down to your children or grandchildren. So long as your maintain the tool properly and don't abuse it and teach who you hand it down to the same respect for a tool then it may be around for several generations.

Do you know what bushcraft is? It is simple things like making feather sticks, tent pegs, pot holders, up to more complex things like monkey bridges and huts. Sometimes all you want to do is sit around and carve out a kuksa or a whistle which is difficult using a, "survival" knife. All the things you would need for bushcraft happen to be all the same things you'd need for a legit survival situation. However, "survival" knives are a complete joke and merely riding marketing coattails.
