    Whats the best grind for your ideal bushcraft knife?

    its not really a problem as such? if used for what its designed for...as in you wouldnt expect to be handed a butter knife with a fork to eat a steak. carry a scandi for your woodcraft....and a spare " multi use" in your kit

    Whats the best grind for your ideal bushcraft knife?

    however...there is NO KNIFE designed to split wood...thats just the sellers telling you it is to SELL you it.a knife is designed to cut or slice or.....NO BLADE is designed to "baton" with....NO KNIFE. the 3 way stress a knife suffers when "batoning" is savage.....then on top of this its struck...

    Whats the best grind for your ideal bushcraft knife?

    A....scandi grind is designed for woodcraft..so yes...using it to remove a tooth will chip the fine edge.its a fine edge for cutting into wood and NOTHING compares to this grind for that purpose. each grind is designed to do different tasks as any knife efficianado will tell you.

    bit of silliness in your reply there.....of course instruments are required to play music....typical answer to a question theres no answer to...." is an axe required in the uk"......

    Beginner Bushcraft Knife and Axe recommendations

    moras though cheap are excellent knives.....the argument if not full tang is irrelevant.great steel...scandi grind.theyre made for use in harsh conditions.....conditions we will never..NEVER experience anywhere in the uk.use a knife what its DESIGNED for and a mora will hold its own with ANY knife.
