I never saw the point in larger knives that I couldn't carry when hiking but then I realised that I use my MOD4 ( 7"ish blade ) more than any of my other knives as I keep it by my wood stove for splitting kindling and making fuzz sticks !
And this year I'm planning on getting more camping in as well so a knife like a ScrapWeiler would be perfect !!!

I just hope that when it comes it's within my budget !!! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crossfingers.gif" alt="" />
