This “knife” may be better suited as a link pin for rail cars. It is called the PIG (Purposefully Inflated Geometry). Short, overweight, ugly, aggressive, dirty and nearly indestructible. This is the latest version of an ever-evolving pet project of mine. Its early ancestor was called the Bush Pig and was a blade geared specifically toward my particular needs in a stand alone bush knife. Admittedly, I’m not so much into the “bushcrafting” side of wilderness survival. I tend to approach survival much like a Pitbull does a steak. There is no need for delicate carving, dressing game or shaving my armpits. It is hard to see it in the pics but there is some serious meat behind the cutting edge. That said, I’m sure it wouldn’t do too badly at any of that fine stuff either.
Listed price is approximate.
