What do you all think of these knife as a general use/ camping/ backpacking knife? I wanted something I can use as a beater knife and I came across this guy. Is it worth the 20 bucks to get one or should I save my money for something else? Thanks in advance!

Knife throws awesome. Good spring steel, easy to sharpen. Round, full handle. It is a good beater but not a fantastic slicing knife because the grind is under 1" tall. Bottle opener guard actually works too.

Short answer. Yes, great beater.

Another recommendation but with a cheapo nylon sheath is a Cold Steel GI Tanto.
 
This is my current hiking, car, truck, throwing, etc knife! Let me put it this way, it has a bottle cap opener and that is the main feature. Aside from that the knife is totally functional sharpens real easy, and it stays sharp don't take it from me I'm biased but $20 will not hurt! I have the 81 model with blade and saw teeth that makes a good fish scaler.
