When you are out there in the
wilderness, hiking, and
backpacking or on a long
camping trip, one of the most
useful tools you can have on
hand is a trusty survival
knife. Columbia knives are
survival knives intended for
survival purposes in a
wilderness environment, often
in an emergency situation when
the user has lost most of his
or her main equipment.
Military units issue some type
of survival knife to pilots in
the event their plane may be
shot down. Survival knives can
be used for trapping,
skinning, wood cutting and
other uses. Hunters, hikers,
and outdoor sport enthusiasts
use survival knives, and
always should be part of your
survival kit. Always keep a
knife in its sheath; this will
keep the survival knife clean,
dry and less prone to cause
injuries while reaching for it.
