Product Review

Lost in the wilderness, with less gear than you need, one item you should have is a good sturdy knife.

The term "survival knife" can have many variations, but they all lead to one question: do you have the tool you need to save your life in a wilderness survival situation.

What makes a good wilderness knife? What makes a poor one? These subjects, as well as exercises to improve knife skills and avoid accidents, are shown through numerous color photos and drawings.

Author Clint Hollingsworth is an avid, experienced outdoorsman, survival student and martial artist who has devoted much of his time to the study of wilderness knives.
