Whether you are making a day trip into nature or you are going to be camping out for a few days, a good camping knife is very important. It is important for your survival, and you need a good one you can count on. When you are buying your camping knife, make sure that you have one that has a tang that is full length and one that has a very solid handle as well. You need something tough that will hold up well when you are out in nature and counting on that knife. Here is a look at some of the best choices you may want to buy when you need a good camping knife.
When you are looking for a camping knife, one option to consider is the KA-BAR Knife, which is a knife that was developed for Marines after the Second World War started. This knife is well known for being tough, since it is used out in the field by the marines for opening cans, driving in pegs on tents, and for defense. Many knife companies other than KA-BAR are now making this type of a knife as well. The camping knife is one that is reliable while simple and the design has remained the same for years. You’ll find that the tang goes the entire length of the handle and it is found in synthetic and leather options with a blade that is stainless steel and treated by heat to ensure it is tough. These knives are easy to find, but you want to ensure you get one from KA-BAR or another company that is reliable.
Another option if you want a sturdy camping knife happens to be the SOG Seal Pup. This is a knife that is a lot like the SOG Seal knife, but it is a lot easier to handle and a lot smaller as well. It comes with a full tang, it is light, and has a blade that is medium size, which makes it a perfect option for camping. The blade is partially serrated, and it only weights in at five ounces. There is a special powder coat to help it resist any corrosion and the handle is beveled and reinforced to make gripping easy.
The knife that is issued to the Air Force in the United States, the GI Pilot’s Knife, is another great option you may want to buy when looking for a high quality camping knife. They are made to work well in various situations and have a design that is very similar to the KA-BAR knife. However, the blade is serrated on the back edge and it is made out of carbon steel. These knives are easy to find and they are reasonably priced as well. Just ensure that the one you have has a full tang or the blade won’t be sturdy enough for heavy camping use.
