Survival knives are intended for survival situations. Survival Knives are used by soldiers, hunters, hikers and campers. Crowds of participating in other outdoor activities carry and use survival knives. What should I consider when choosing a survival knife?
Survival Knives many styles and sizes. There survive long, heavy knife with a design similar to a machete. Some are still built according to design Bowie knife with a blade long and strong. Survival Knives others have a foldable design for compact transport. We'll cover some common features and design in knives survival.
Most survival knives are multi-purpose blades. The blade can usually perform multiple tasks such as cutting, cutting, drilling and curious. The handle often has a lanyard hole so that the survival knife can be attached to a pole spear.
One of the most of tooth design and the limited duration of most benefit to survival knives and a saw is limited. These teeth were survival knives equipment was designed to more easily penetrate the relatively thin metal skin on a downed aircraft. These teeth can be used for waste wood or bark to the breeding ground to help start a fire. Some survival knives are actually saw teeth on the leaf type. You are still limited in what can reduce the length of the blade survival knife.
Some survival knives have a hollow handle feature. The movie "Rambo" style popularized the survival knife. Survival knives, as they are sometimes called a "Rambo" knives. One of the selling points of these knives is that the team survival may be stored in the handle. A disadvantage many hollow handle knives, survival is the handle is attached and is not part of the leaf. This creates a weakness that may fail when you need your knife survival of the majority. There are some hollow-handled knives are rescues from a single piece of steel. The handle of these knives survival part of the road if you have no weakness. There is another consideration, with hollow-handled knives for survival. If you lose your survival knife, also lost all equipment stored in the handle.

Others feel survival knives with a blade of time is too difficult for some tasks they expect to survival knives.
My opinion, based on experiences I had as a police officer while hunting and camping, is as follows. The best survival knives survival knives of trust with their life and feel comfortable. I use this analogy, one pistol, 22 is much more effective in the hands of someone who knows how to use it, 30-06 is a rifle in the hands of someone who does not know how to load a survival knife. Any knife can be used as a survival knife, if this is the knife you have.
The selection of survival knives is a personal choice. Evaluate what type of terrain where you will be in the (desert, jungle, wood, rocks), what their needs are more likely that (look for water, construction of a fire, make shelter, cutting bandages, food gathering), their own physical strength (Do not buy a 5 lbs. knife if you can not use) and take into account the points mentioned above. When you make your choice, remember cheap is no bargain if you need to survive. You do not get tape to finish second in a survival situation!
