Too weight for multiday trip?

[MEJ]

Hey so if i was to go on am multi day trip and bring a Ka-Bar kukri, BK2, ESEE 3, and Izula, would that seem like to much wieght?

No, but maybe a bit redundant. The kukri and esee3 would be more than enough.

 

[RevDevil]

Agreed, too much of the same thing does nothing for you.

 

[Dorito Monk]

Take one of those, leave the rest behind. That's all you'll need.

Where are you going? If you're packing all of them, it may be too much excess weight, but if you're car camping, then why not?

If you're staying in a hotel, then you're probably going to lose your deposit!

Couldnt agree more! Nut is right on the money. Kukri is big and good for heavy chopping, batoning...heavy duty work. The ESEE 3 is for finer more detail work. You dont need the other two. For these two will cover a large variety of tasks and cover them well.

If you're hiking while carrying the weight of your gear I'd go with the idea of picking 2 knives (big chopper + smaller 'detail work' knife). I tend to over gear too so I'd probably have a big knife + smaller knife + SAK.

Yeah, if your are carrying them on your person, its too much weight.
