Alot of people have asked me recently what type of knife to buy for hiking and general purpose, i have seen alot of friends go and buy cheap knifes that rust after their first real test. This is my knife of choice........
Leatherman Skeletool Multi-Tool
This baby has been with me now for around 4 years, its survived survival training with the Marines, Firefighter training centre, many many hikes and is now my current Fire Kit knife of choice.
The blade is a lock out blade. It has a screwdriver with two attachments for different screw heads, (Posi - Neg) small snap hook attachment and turns into a very good pair of pliers.
The tool is nice and small and slips into any pocket easily. For me the best part of this knife is the build quality, ive put it through some tough tests and it still looks knew, the blade has been re-sharpend once.
This will be my knife of choice for my Trek, complete with a lanyard so i dont lose it.
Get yourself one.
Lanyard
Hope you find this helpful.
