>>614696Makes more sense to carry a few fishing hooks and needles, and if you know how to fletch arrows you will probably know how to make decent arrowheads. One arrowhead is worthless, very possible you will lose it in a variety of ways. The saw is so small it's useless. Seriously, just carry a few needles and hooks.
>>614709Contrarian. I've had quite a bit of experience with long-term camping, a bundle of paracord + a 10lb test spool of fishing line covers everything you'd ever need perfectly as far as cordage. There isn't anything more versatile in use or as efficient as paracord that I'm aware of.
>>614714Most of it's not really useful or ideal in any way, but I like their ponchos just for being cheap and compact and their mosquito netting for a compact bait/food gathering net if you want to catch some frogs or small fish to eat.
>>614717silly
>>614739That's too bad, because the concept is good.
>>615285That thing i worthless. Good luck binding that to a stick in any reasonable way for splitting wood. Actually needing a hatchet is extremely rare anyway, just pick it up off the ground and break it up using a couple of close together trees if you can't with your hands. If you neeeed to cut wood, a folding saw generally performs better than a hatchet and is much lighter. That card is not going to work for anything, though, it's comical.
>>616662Everything you can do with bankline you can accomplish with paracord for cheaper, and everything you can do with paracord you can not necessarily do with bankline. It's contrarianism.
>>616969>hostage escape cardthere are so many things wrong with this I'm not even going to start
>>619702>it's nothing special and actually kind of mediocre for a lot of camping uses.I really get the feeling that people who diss on paracord don't actually do a lot of camping. It's heavenly.
>>619722maybe if you need a manicure
Biggest gimmick imo is a machete/kukri. Heavy, bulky, dangerous, not really useful for anything.
