There are two kinds of survivalist in this world. Ones that use big survival knives and ones that uses axes. You may have them both but generally prefer one. I am a big survival knife guy. I’ve never cared much for axes. I’ve used a few and will use one often in the future. In fact I just bought my first axe. It will not be going out camping with me ever. I prefer to use big survival knives to process wood. Let me share some of the reasons why with you.
I felt that it was time to finally replace the previously reviewed and loved Kershaw Skyline. The Blade profile was getting bad from early bad attempts at sharpening it. I had accidentally introduced a funky re-curve line in it. Secondly I felt like I wanted a blade that would be a bit bigger and be better suited for self defense. I had mainly narrowed my search down the the Spyderco line of knives. I finally made a decision, with the Spyderco Tenacious, and a purchase and have been testing it for the past week or so. I may revisit this knife after I really put the Tenacious through it’s paces.
