Like the title says, whats your favorite blades for bushcrfat. Doesnt matter on size, or maker, or ones you even own at the moment. What are your favorites. Post pictures if you got them.

Mine at the moment are my Laconico HWK, Laconico camp knife, and I want a NWA scout so bad I can taste it. I really want to try out a couple scandi grind customs, just havent got around to it yet.

I am hoping I will get a few good ideas out of this post. The wife says I am done with knives, she says I have more then I will ever need. I talked her into a couple more, so give me some good ideas.
 
Laconicos Expedition is a fave of mine.

Other blades that come to mind are the RC3 from RAT, BRKT Bravo1, and the Busse Game Warden....

I am not skilled enough to call myself a "bushcrafter". This is my favorite "woodsbummer" :)

And can make spoon-like objects :o (I need more practice, it's not the knife's fault)

A big plus for me is that it is my EDC knife. So if I truly need to survive this will be a knife I have on me. Small enough not to be left at home but performs well.

Ohh... almost forgot ...The knife is a JK Anniversary EDC.

One more...not a survival skill but if my life depends on whittling a human hair..well

Makes good fuzz sticks too.

This is my "bring one knife" bushcraft blade. I've used it to make feather sticks, tent pegs, tarp support poles, chop and baton firewood, etc.

My bushcrafting mainly consist of fashioning hot dog sticks and fishing rod holders. A cheap Mora outperforms my others. I like my JK but it will not whittle wood like a Mora.
 
This little guy has been been doing all I ask of him just lately....

Then again I can usually get by quite well with this one as well....

If you made me choose I would likely choose the H&K.


They are all simply awesome blades.

I have a few favorite bushcrafters.

Please, for the love of God stop posting pics of this knife. I can't afford to buy anymore knives and this one makes me drool.:mad:

I have one of these on the way and I hope it'll be as good as I think it is.

Well...I have only gotten two that most would consider "bushcraft" blades even if I consider all of my knives usefull in bushcraft...if not I tend to get rid of them.

The first one was this Bushlore I bought from Rick about a year and a half ago. It got me into the buschcraft design but since I bought it for my daughter I then needed one for myself.

So I studied various bushcraft designs and played with Sarah's Bushlore whenever I had a chance and designed one specifically based on my personal uses. Now I think my favorite, and yes being as it is my design I have a biased opinion I know, is this Sojourner. I have been checking it out a lot and I just love how it functions in everything I've tried so far.
