I have a sort of sharpened pry-bar as my second survival knife after my Mora. It is a Cold Steel True Flight Thrower. It is made of Carbon V steel. It is VERY sharp! It cuts paper by just pulling it against the blade. It has about a 5 1/4" cutting edge. I changed the green cord for red and black heavy duty boot laces. It can't break or melt. I folded the leather sheath where the belt slot is. I pop riveted the folded loops on the edges. It sits higher on my belt. It is nice and flat and not in the way.
