After reading this article a couple of years ago I still can't help but be drawn to this knife http://www.artofmanliness.com/2011/11/29/how-to-choose-the-perfect-survival-knife/.
I've noticed Moonraker now stock it http://www.moonrakerknives.co.uk/ontario.html (bottom of page), but I don't really 'need' another knife. My current user is the Ray Mears (SWC) Bushcraft knife and I do like it. I also have a Becker BK-2 which I suppose falls into the 'survival knife' catergory. I have other fixed blades knives which don't normally get used, and plently of folders along with the GB SFA and a Laplander folding saw. Whilst all my angles are covered from a cutting tools point of view I just can't help but wonder how capable the SK-5 would be as a general use cutting tool.
Does anybody have one, or has anyone handled one or even seen one in the flesh?
Many thanks
Stu
