Normark, that was a very interesting link, it's hard to believe how afraid people are, of one of mans oldest and simplest tools. Yet seeing the amount of knife knutz and all the diverse background I can only hope that one day, we'll be able to carry and use our knives in public without the fear of the stares, and comments,"what do you need such a big weapon for?

", or my other favorite,"Who ya gonna kill with that" from the scared masses.
Seems like the only legitimate places for knife use is camping, in the kitchen, hunting, and if your lucky enough maybe at a job where a knife is part of your work gear.
Now to get back to the post, I've always read about how good Grohman knives were, they're recommend by some of the old North American Guide Manuals my old man had. My next outdoor/camp knife is going to be the R300 it just looks comfortable, and the shapes been around and sucessful for quite sometime. The high handle gives you lots of room for skinnin', and it lowers the center of gravity when your chopping,(I would recommend a fixed blade version if your planning on doing a lot of chopping) of splittin' kindlin'.
