RE: My 3 item Hand-out Surival Kit for Nature Walks

Here it's way down below my feed:

I have a lot of stories of how I went to nature trips unprepared, I wish I have the energy to write everything. But I'll save them for later I guess.

Yeah, maybe I don't need a big knife but I'm going to check that Morakniv, thanks for the recommendation. I had a very cheap knife used for cutting fruits, good thing I didn't have to use it to this Brazillian truck driver who almost attacked me (this was also in one of my earlier posts).

Some friends warned me about carrying a knife, but I told them it's not for people. It's more for slicing fruits, food etc..,

I'm planning to camp in an island, and I would definitely have to prepare this time. I will surely post my experience here on steemit.

Swiss knife would be good too, but I don't need a lot of those fancy things inside. Maybe I need a can opener and some small blade with it.

I appreciate if you post more survival tips, but I will try and read online as well.

Thanks!

Thanks. I just back from reading that post. Wow, lucky those Mexicans came along.

The Swiss army knives come in many editions. The Hiker or Camper models are reasonably lightweight and have what you need. The "Champ" model is a massive weighty chunk of stuff you'll never use - so, while I love my Champ (it was a gift), I never take it anywhere. For the same weight I'd rather carry a small multi-tool.
I'm paranoid about losing my knife and they have a ring to attach a cord so you can tie it to something.

I'll check the online shops about these knives. Maybe something not too expensive as I always lose it, or it gets confiscated by the security, wherever I go.

Thanks, I will wait for more posts from you about this. And also your trip to the Himalayas.
