So, here is how my brain does the claculation : if making spoons and other stuff is so appealing, then either i have FIRST ( before buying it) have to invent one or two more uses for it, OR find another bushcrafty way to make a spoon.

MY brain tells me to try a (free) amber from the camp fire to burn thru wood and carve a spoon. And to smooth it out and remove carbon, go to the nearest creek , use a bandana or other cloth with some sand/silt and do some abrasive cleaning of the inside, voila !!! You got a spoon. Not very geometrically correct, but it will do the job. And actually that will be closer to a survival training than relying on something made commercially.

Sheesh !! I sure sound like someone who is fighting the use of such knife. I swear I am not. LOL. Just don't like very specialized stuff. My brain cells prefer multi-multi-purpse, and even re-purposed stuff.
