Are these any good at all? Not planning any hard use, just something to toss in my car in case I go off the road.

An Old Hickory kitchen knife form Wal-Mart for the same price would be much better.

For a $9 fixed blade knife absolutely not. That thing will break cutting butter. It's worth it to invest a little money in a decent knife. If you take care of it, it will last a lifetime, but cheap pieces of shit like that are likely to break and seriously injure you.

Just proves that these things cost nothing to make, it's all name and reputation and warranty.

You are better off giving going up to random strangers and asking if you can buy a $10 knife from them.

A Mora Companion is only like $14 on Amazon... If your going supper cheap, get a Mora. Better yet, if it's going to stay in your car, get a 18" machete.

Old Hickorys are hot rolled high carbon. Not sure of the exact steel used, but it sharpens up really well with just about any method. It's not sold as an /out/ knife, but it's American made, and can compete with anything in the 6-8 inch full tang class. They make all kinds of blade configurations. Cheap enough to mod into whatever you want. Have to make your own sheath.

and to continue about your pricing point, old hickory is traditionally punched from lumber saw steel. the steel is made for tensile strength etc, not for being a knife. ontarios other knives are built under diff parameters, treatment etc. though yes i would say there are definitely inexpensive knife options out there. ontario themselves have some famous ones, namely the 499, which is sadly a partial tang, because otherwise its an excellent deal. schrade are making excellent knifes for cheap too

Same Ontario.
The difference is one is stamped out of a piece of steel with no grinding involved, no sheath, zero fit and finish, no coating, and a hande made from a roughly sawn block of wood. Its also produced in much higher numbers.

The only similarity is between the RAT series and the Old Hickory is the steel composition.

Didn't see a general knife thread, so I'm gonna hijack real quick.

If I want to do some small game hunting and fishing to offset my food supply, is it worth having a dedicated butchering/filet knife in my pack and a general use knife on my belt.

Or should I have one knife for doing everything? If so, recommendations?

But if you've got a car you have room for an axe or a saw, which is what an intelligent person would keep in their trunk for such emergencies. Not a cheap novelty knife.

The knife? Well worth $5 w/coupon. Well worth $5 to throw inna trunk.

Also, the Old Hickory suggestion is excellent.
