I've got an original Campanion. It is useless.
That isn't to say it can't be used, of course, but the knife has issues. It's heavy, the blade is too thick, the edge is too thick, and the grip is large. I don't carry it precisely because of that. I should have gotten rid of it years ago. Therefore, it's never used, and that makes it - useless.
What do I carry and use instead? A 3 1/2" folder. Dress a deer with any 5 inch fixed blade and you fight the length, constantly being forced to choke up on the blade. The edge needs to be thin, and a longer tapering point offers more utility for other chores. It still needs to be drop point, but the Becker could have a 45 degree angle clip and do as well. I carried a Swamp Rat Camp Tramp for a while, it's better than the Becker because the edge was thinner, the knife handled better. It was still too big for most hunting and camping chores, tho, and I question now whether getting an ESEE 6" would be any good, either. According to the users and makers, the 5" is a bit much.
After 22 years in the Reserves, Infantry, Ordnance, MP, I never used a knife to open an ammo crate - you just twist the wires and it falls apart. I didn't have to baton or chop wood, most dry limbs broke under my weight, and the larger ones burned in two and both ends shoved in the fire. What I couldn't handle, a hatchet or axe would. Woodsmen use those to build lean to's, it's required by Alaska state law for bush pilots. In the field, the worse thing we had to cut were roots - which we uncovered with entrenching tools, and which are quite capable of handling them with a serrated edge. The other was paracord, and a 3 1/2" locking folder or Swiss Army knife was more than a match. The scissors were prized for personal care.
If I had nothing else, I could use a BK2, but it wouldn't be the primary choice, or even on the list. For the extreme work they are touted to be good for, I'd rather carry a 4" camp knife and a boy's axe.
There's the long explanation, which comes from a having a share of the outdoor experience. Yes, having rope might just be useless - if it's kernmantle or rappel line - when you actually need some twine to bind sticks together to make a shelter or tie out a tarp. If three lay twist, it could be unraveled.
If some is good, more isn't better. We wear right sized shoes and underwear, not three sizes too big. I don't take a 6" fixed knife in the woods anymore. It's useless.
