A Day in the Life of a Field Knife Updated with Fire Making

My dog (Jo's dog) Sadie is completely useless in every imaginable way. What does the dog do?

 

She seems to have nailed relaxing.

 

She's watching you from the corner of her eyes, bud. She aint as dumb as you make her out to be

 

Your insights are much appreciated and it’s very apparent that everyone is really enjoying this thread. It’s one thing to carry a big knife into the field from time to time for the pure joy of it, entirely another to have to consider what works and what is reasonable/necessary to carry day in and day out for work along with all the other equipment the job requires.

Hope that prototype makes it to you so we can get your perspective on how it compares to the original.

 

Hey Andy, I’ll be happy to lend you the FK2 prototype PT scored for me last week. I’m sure we would all like to see your comparison review, and you could help Nathan dial in his production FK2 for the preorder.

 

You got it brother!

 

...in inconvenient places

 

Andy, pssst! Keep this one on the hush-hush but I hear that Nathan is the best person to have as a proxy around here on fun Friday sales, even though he's slow as heck

 

We would all like to see your comparison review, too, Gus. And comparison pics!

 

Thanks Christian, but unfortunately I don’t work in the wilderness, and I don’t go camping. I work in a hospital. No bears, but there are a lot of nasty bugs around. It is in a rough section of Miami, I might need it to defend myself while walking to my car late at night. I did promise to do a comparison review, so I’ll try to put something together, but I don’t think it’s going to help Nathan dial in his FK2. I’ll admit it, I just wanted a Motherfucker.

 

Yikes! Stay safe, man.
It’s a CPK. In D3V. So we already know it will cut well and hold up to serious use. But you have enough knives in that amazing collection of yours to share your informed thoughts about how it feels in the hand, balance etc. in particular compared to the 1st gen. And pics of course...

Oh, and I don’t blame you for wanting that mofo. Who wouldn’t?

 

Scout looks awesome!

 

Great thread! Love to see how folks actually use their knives, and fantastic photos for folks like me with desk jobs...thanks n.t.l.

 

Yeah the UF is excellent for concealed carry. Nathan said he use to carry his into some shady areas.

 

Nice display!
Man, you’re really putting a lot of hipsters over in Brooklyn to shame

Favorite axe and hatchet?

 

Very cool thread.

Is this a HDFK? I’ve been trying to search for pics of this blade in hand.
