So, camping season once again and as usual I will carry a little survival kit in my pocket as well as the kit on my belt and in my pack.
I want to buy a small, foilding knife to put in it, something better than the small, fragile opinel I use now. None of my local shops sell little folders so I'm buying online. I've been looking at the boker subcom and small spyderco knives (the Byrd Finch). I've already rejected the little buck folders as too heavy and the small SAKs as too fragile.
Anyone used the finch? Spyderco are usually good (I've got a UK Penknife) but the very cheap Finch might not be any good. All I need is something light, small and capable of light cutting tasks, like making kindling or tinder.
Any advice appreciated. I'm only online about twice a week so apologies if I'm late in replying.
