Thanks guys. Is it worth getting something with a serrated blade on one side?

 

I agree with paradox on serrated blades.

Here is what I have - http://thelatebay.com/index.php?topic=6389.msg99169#msg99169

 

Soooo, you're a bunch of not-so-closet pyscho's then?
WTF are you going to do with these knives when you go camping with your wives and kids?
Please post a pic when you slash your shin or cut your finger off.

 

I fail to see how using edged tools when camping makes you a psycho?

 

Don't worry zed, I pack a handful of these on my adventures.

 

This is all you need ..........

 

Nowt Gimmicky or phsyco about my selection of edged tools
Just good reliable tried and tested over time kit

 

I dont carry them all at once lol

Everday carry is the swiss army huntsman

When camping Its normally
Frosts mora knife (The green handled one)
Bacho laplander folding saw
Gransfor bruks small forest axe

The wooden handled one is a EKA of sweden nordic knife and gets swapped with the Frosts mora
If fish or game is the main reason for my time outdoors

The two black handled knifes are Kuusamo of finland
Their mostly For home use and larger longer stay camps normally vehicle based and are capable with dealing with tasks as small as cutting cheese to tasks as large as butchering deer

If i had to make the choice of only carrying one of the above for a week in the wilderness it would be the frosts mora

 

You DO know that when I finally make it up your way I EXPECT to be hunting deer on your fathers land, butchering it on the spot and cooking it up in a homemade hobo Kitchen. I'll be terribly disappointed if we end up at macDonalds.
