    scouting reg.

    I don't know about you guys but here in America in my troop we can carrry folders. In the Order of the Arrow we are allowed sheath knives. Your leader probably thinks of it as a weapon rather than a tool.

    Ember burned spoon

    I am going camping this weekend and am thinking of making a spoon by way of burning. Can anyone provide any insight into this? How is it done? Thanks

    Survival knife

    I have passed up every chance to get one of these survival knives. I do have a large(18 inches) bowie but i have never brought it camping and it just looks nice on my wall. It was only $12 at a reenactment so it was not a loss. I agree with the others, get a good knife and carry a pouch.

    How many knives and/or axes do you own?

    I have just gone through my collection and I have about 6 fixed blades: boot knive, bowie, meat cleaver, a forged one, and some others. I have well over 20 foldings though and I intend to sell some to Scouts in my troop. Looking at my knives, only a few are of camp quality. Most are switchblades...
