Hi,
I'm looking for an outdoor camping tool for light backpacking (nothing too weight conscious). I'm wondering if you can recommend something in the $50$100 price range. Initially I was looking for a large cutting knife (maybe 8 inches). But I realize I need a knife, a hatchet, a saw, and perhaps a machete. I wonder if there are tools that sort of serve these functions. Or is it best to buy some of them separately?
I'm really looking for a quality tool, rather than a weapon or a fun item. I tend to avoid names like "zombie cutter" or "recon killer knife" as I am simply looking for something slightly different. But, for example, Gerber has a saw/machete (called like Zombie Junior or something) that looks pretty decent for a low-cost item, so perhaps a good tool might be attempting to attract an audience that is more interested in a fun item. I'm not opposed to a name.
And, frankly, I'm not a survival person, so perhaps my initial ideas are not perfect.
