"The right bladed tool for the right job"

 

Eaton Rapids Joe helpfully provides this chart of what we need.  You really need to view it full size to read the text and appreciate where all the suggestions come from.  Clickit to biggit.



I don't think the various state knife laws in the USA cover some of those variations . . . but you could have fun trying to explain them to Officer Friendly!

(On the other hand, I can envisage the last two in use at our neighborhood butcher.  He has some mad chopping skillz, and those would enhance his technique.)

Saw a comment elsewhere from someone who said he discovered the kukra he bought was absolutely great as a brush/overgrowth remover. Looking at my back yard I'd get one for that reason alone.

One thing (of many) that I love about my state is that you can legally carry any size blade open or concealed.

Crysknives aren't for sandworms, they're for Sardukar.

Some interesting art forms and impractical weapons on that chart. One can't turn around without bumping into pro gun 2nd amendment supporters but one never hears of pro bladed weaponry 2nd amendment supporters.
