Opinel No.08 Stainless Steel 3.75 inch Folding Knife
Survival knives are designed for extreme conditions and must be durable and robust. They typically feature fixed blades with full-tang construction, ensuring they can withstand heavy-duty use without damage. These knives should be multifunctional, enabling tasks such as building shelters, catching and preparing food, making fires, and self-defense in the wilderness. Most survival knives have synthetic handles and sheaths for enhanced weather resistance and grip.
While both carbon steel and stainless steel are used for blades, carbon steel is often preferred because it retains a sharp edge longer and is easier to sharpen in the field. For outdoorsmen, a reliable survival knife is indispensable for navigating and thriving in challenging environments.
