I think Ray Mears is better at this sort of thing than I am. However, I am better looking.

Yep, Ray certainly makes sure he goes out into the wilds well upholstered so he can afford to burn some stored calories... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />

Having just received my Street Scrapper 4, I can tell you that it would be a GREAT knife to have with you in the woods/wilderness. It is stout enough to cut smaller branches, and agile enough to dress-out game from squirrels to deer. Although I prefer a larger knife such as my BattleRat, the SS4 is a great companion to have along. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" /> Tom

I'm waiting for the bowie to show up. I'm thinking of maybe a dual sheath with the bowie and the street scrapper. It'd be a great combo to have in the woods.

Jerrwhy - I totally agree with you! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" /> The Bowie/SS4 would be an ideal combination, and I might try to make a combo sheath for them once I get the Bowie. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" /> Tom

It seems to me that "bushcraft" type knives have been making a buzz.

ie. the Ray Mears Woodlore Knife, Fallkniven, etc.

And i hear Spyderco is considering making a "bushcraft" knife out of 52100 steel!

..that should be interesting..
