Knives of Elementary Bushcraft

[Danceswithhelicopters]

After 55 years on this planet I thought I'd do a Bushcraft course. I'll drop a few threads kit wise about it but this one is, I hope, interesting to see what people actually bring, and use, participants and instructors.

At first glance I do not se anything unreasonable.

A surprisingly sensible set of knives

I thought so too; I thought that there were some nice shinies there, but all in all a practical looking set

I nearly got kicked off for mine but it did a mean featherstick.

My favourite is the knobbly mora! Lots of character!!

I like the bottom one most, it does not look like it was turned out by a CNC machine.

ESEE4 bloke’s not afraid to use it is he?

Green Mora bloke doesn’t look like he needs a big knife to prove anything.

What is the top pictured knife? From its appearance, I'm not sure that I could use it for a prolonged period - for any normal bushcraft-y task... But maybe it works well.

I think that is an older model of the Buck Alpha fixed blade hunter. It was one of the instructor assistants who came from a hunting background.

Some nice knives there, and a nice variety
