I bought one of these because you need a truly un breakable fixed blade knife as a survival knife. You can use this to split firewood, hammering it through 12” round with a scratch made wood club. It will cut a fire stick, make a bow, start a fire with a ferro rod, and then slice bread, or make a shelter from scratch.
