>>624978Anon here. I carry two or three knives. One as a personal (safety blanket knife), one as my wood worker, and the last as my food prep.
I don't see the problem with a multi tool for urban use though many items can be substituted in a pinch. The pliers /: maybe not.
Remember, one slip when crossing a river and all your gear can get taken from you. So that neck knife or belt knife may be the only cutting tool you have left.
I separate my gear by camp and scout gear. The stuff that I leave at camp when I break it and the rest as my on my person, scout gear that I go fuck around with (hunt-fish-forage-cook) away from camp. It has basic over night stuff that I rotate as far as food, but it's nice to have things you can post up with away from camp and have a little cook camp. This is where my hammock will soon play its role. (Future purchase)
It's a safe way to practice bushcrafting shelters without leaving a camp site with everything you need if someone your practicing-teaching with sucked at learning-applicating.
