This is probably one of the most asked questions as I adventure and workout often. Dedicated fitness trackers are fine, but I need a multifunctional device that can do more than just track my steps. So, what fitness tracker do I use?
As often as the next task is what I was told. When you are preparing a meal and cutting chicken, vegetables, fish, and other items with one knife, you should clean it each time you cut the next item.
There is a full tang knife, a folding knife, and a multitool knife in general. But if I can only carry one, I would carry a full tang knife.
If you use it often, once a week. If not, look at its cutting capability, and if it is not up to par, sharpen it. Make sure you take your time to sharpen your knives in order to avoid damaging the edge. Don’t forget to lube your knife as well. Once a year, I take the knife apart to lube it. Last but not least, treat the blade with oil (knife oil, camellia oil, kurobara, and the like).
This is a great question, and I’ll go over the list below. But this question really deserves to ask the question of the type of camping you are going to do. If you are camping out of a car, bring all the creature comforts. If you are doing a hike through, you may want to minimize what you bring to make the hike a bit easier.
I love this question. All of this can be packed, nested in different items, or worn and it doesn’t take as much space as you would think. It weighs less than 20 lbs. In the event I get injured or lost (I have never been lost yet), this provides enough items to survive until I am evacuated by a medical helicopter or found by search and rescue.
It’s amazing how many people I know go on hikes and only have water, wallet, cell phone, car keys, and maybe a snack. I usually carry a full pack of items, enough to survive for a few days while I am signaling or attempt to make contact to be exfiltrated out if I am injured. I don’t get lost, but even if that happens, what I have in my pack will get me back out.
Hands down a recurve bow. Even better would be a takedown recurve bow as they can be taken down (usually in 3 pieces and the bow string), and easily packed or attached to your pack when traveling. A recurve bow can easily be strung, and making string with natural items isn’t too difficult.
Full tang. Hands down. However, I usually carry 3 knives minimum, two of which are folders at times (one of them being a multi-tool.) I sometimes carry 4 knives, one machete or kukri, one full tang knife, one folding knife, and one multi-tool. But if I have to carry just one, a longer full tang…
