What's a good general knife?
I read this from a survival website:
"A good knife is a survival kit unto itself. From chopping timbers for a shelter, to carving up the makings of a bow drill for fire to whittling the catch for a snare, a good knife in the hands of a knowledgeable individual is THE key item in a kit. The rest is just dressing. I recommend something that can CHOP. Whereas you'll need to drop small trees and branches for all types of purposes, this is critical. Rambo's knife might have LOOKED mean, but in a survival situation? In a true survival situation, I'll take my $20 reworked Ghurka Kukri or $15 US Mil Spec Machete over his $500 Jimmy Lile custom any day of the week. I own a LOT of knives... some of them quite expensive, but for true chopping power, I've made my choice."
So pretty much I want a good, cheap knife that can do pretty much anything.
Cold Steel Trail Master is just about perfect for wilderness survival use. The Ontario RTAK II is also fantastic and a little less money. Weight is a major issue in hiking and survival, so you may opt to sacrifice some cutting power to gain mobility. The Cold Steel Recon Scout, USMC Ka-Bar, and Rat Cutlery/Esee knives are all fantastic choices for this purpose. You may consider a second, smaller neck or pocket knife for smaller chores or backup.
