A light ax such as a Hudsons Bay 3/4 bit and a light knife (Mora or equivalent) would be my choice for an extended back woods expedition. Or ditch the ax and take a light folding saw.
It's a good thing I don't live in highly populated areas you guys do. Not to many people going out where I do. And plenty of dead wood to chop up and burn. There would be no point in me going out so far, if I couldn't make a nice fire at night to relax by. That would defeat the whole purpose of being out relaxing in nature. My opinion.
Just keep in mind open fires are against regulation on much public lands/back country.To each there own. I'll make a fire when I feel like it. Thanks!!!
What other cutting tools did you take other than "sometimes". What cutting tools did you use, how often, and what for?
Why did you just sometimes take the endura and sak?

Well, I guess I don't know where you live but short of someplace up in Alaska or Northern Canada, you are not going more true wilderness in the U.S. than around where I hike. And I certainly see the signs of big chopper/lots of camp fires people on every trail.
I'm in New Mexico. There is a lot of land out here, a hell of a lot that has been un explored still. I see traces too. But I seem to be getting a lot of crap about building fire in the mountains, and I find that very funny. I'm much more responsible than most, and I drown and bury every fire I make.
Here's the catch; if we completely take you at face value that your fire will never get out of hand you're showing other users that a fire is OK in the area with no guarantee that they won't be careless.
Fire will spread in a mountain or desert and if it's that underpopulated it will be very established when it's noticed.

The recent Rocky Mount fire in the SNP burned over 10,000 acres, and it was noticed very quickly.Here's the catch; if we completely take you at face value that your fire will never get out of hand you're showing other users that a fire is OK in the area with no guarantee that they won't be careless.
