My wife and I were surfing through the cable channels and found a show called Alone. The premise is that 10 folks are put miles apart and have to survive off of the land. Being a guy who likes knives I was trying to see what knives/saws/axes/hatchet they had chosen to bring with them. That got me to thinking, if I were going to be one of the contestants (the winner is the one who last the longest in the wilderness) what cutting instruments would I like to have with me. The season we were watching was in Vancouver. I know that high on my list would be a fire starter kit. I would also want a knife that could be lashed to a stick and used as a spear. I would also want a machete and a saw. I would want my knives made of a steel that is easy to sharpen and holds an edge (I'm a fan of 1095). I say these things, but I don't know much. What say some of you guys?
