Frequently asked questions about Outdoor knives

Why do I need a special outdoor knife?

An outdoor knife is more than just a tool; it is an indispensable companion for anyone who faces the outdoors. Unlike kitchen knives, they are specially designed for rough outdoor use. The blades are more robust, the handles more ergonomic and the materials more resistant to moisture and extreme temperatures. A good outdoor knife is built to last and effortlessly handles tasks such as chopping wood, preparing food in the wilderness or making simple tools.

What advantages does an outdoor knife have over a normal pocket knife?

Thinking about whether an outdoor knife is right for you? Here are the key reasons why it stands out from a pocket knife:

Robustness: outdoor knives are often equipped with a full-tang construction, where the blade runs through the entire handle. This makes them extremely sturdy and break-proof.
Versatility: The larger blades allow for a wider range of tasks, from rough work such as chopping wood to precise cuts.
Ergonomics: The handles are often designed to provide a secure grip even with wet hands and reduce fatigue.
Materials: High-quality steels and robust handle materials make outdoor knives more resistant to the elements.

What can I use an outdoor knife for?

The possible uses for special outdoor knives are almost unlimited. Here are a few of the most common uses:

Woodworking: chopping wood, cutting branches, making chips for a fire, building simple structures (e.g. shelter, traps).
Food preparation: carving game, filleting fish, cutting vegetables, making tools for cooking.
Self-defense: In extreme situations, a knife can be used for self-defense.
Repairs: Cutting cords, working on leather, making small repairs to equipment.
Survival: In an emergency situation, a knife can be used for making tools, signaling or gathering materials.

How do I look after my bushcraft or Nata knife properly?

Regular care is essential to maintain the sharpness and longevity of your outdoor knife. After each use, you should clean the knife thoroughly with warm water and washing-up liquid and then dry it carefully. Regular sharpening with a high-quality whetstone or sharpening system preserves the edge and ensures precise cuts. Take care not to overheat the back of the blade to preserve the hardness of the steel.
