Just for fun - 3 knife survive combo in a shtf zombie apocalypse.

Got to have a chopper so definitely the 10

A lighter more nimble knife than the 10 would be needed so I would do the 5.1.

The 3.5 for your clean knife or steak knife
 
I gotta go with the 10, the 5.1, and the 3.5 as well. That said, I only own the 5.1. I'd like to use a 7/7 at some point to see what I think. Fun question.
 
In a zombie apocalypse, considering the likely hood of losing a knife or two along the way, I think your smallest knife should still be large enough to crack a zombie skull. Maybe a 4.1. Next up, gso 5.1 or 6. Then a gso 22 (maybe a 10 or 12 if you can't find a 22 [emoji6])

Besides the no choil and tiny bit extra length, is there any other separation between the 5.1 and 6?
 
GSO 20 (Just because it's imaginary doesn't mean I can't use it!)
GSO 6 (Aint no one got time for choils in the apocalypse)
GSO 4.1

No other difference. In fact, that is how SURVIVE! describes the GSO 6 on their website. Designed for people who like the size of the 5.1, but don't want a choil.

I don't have enough experience with these type of knives to know if I like a choil, so I'll probably take whichever I can get my hands on first.

You know its odd, from general reading it seems 5.1's (but also 4.1) seem to be one of, if not the most favoured gso. But then i also read commonly how much people hate choils. So it leaves me rather confused lol
 
XtianAus, the choil on the 5.1 is very comfortable and really helps with fine control in my experience. Guy's choils are excellent. I didn't think I'd like choils, but I love the GSO choil.

redwood22, in an apocalypse, could we not sharpen the choils and use them for specific tasks like easier branch de-barking or finger chopping? Why we'd have to chop fingers I can't imagine. But you never know.
 
Easy... ;)
GSO-20 Gotta have a hack and slash sword.
GSO 5.1 Covers most of the camp chores and general use.
GSO 3.5 For cleaning small game and my last ditch in-your-eye-zombie knife!
 
well I guess I have to update my previous entry because I just scored a sick 5.1 in CPM-3V and bone linen micarta off of the exchange! so I'll be taking the 4.1 old spec, 5.1 new, and 12 when it gets here.

haha a sharpened choil to deter knife thieves!! I was just thinking the choil might catch as you are stabbing zombies in the head, that's all!
 
Double fisting a pair of 12s would send some heads a flying!

Yeah zactly wut he said!!
