I am with Tom, I always keep a Mora in the daypack and carry a Victorinox Farmer for most little knife chores. I like the Farmer because the blade is much heavier than a standard SAK.

I have a Benchmade Griptilian and I like the knife just fine but to me it is not a bush knife, just an EDC piece for light cutting. If I carry a larger folder in the bush it is a Spyderco Paramilitary, I prefer that type lock mechanism, much less likely to break. Cheers!

Yeah, this is my EDC knife. The blade shape is not really suited for wood carving stuff anyway. I usually take a SAK and/or Leatherman, a locking folder and a fixed blade in the field.
