I can't tell you what he eats for breakfast but, yeah I think thats what he's done. Makes it easier to use the back of a knife. And less bulk, I've allways er'ed away from that. The fear of losing my knife and having a useless flint rod with nothing to strike it with would well.. [censored] me off rarther. <br>Still it does make a nice compact unit with your simple most important tools in one place on your belt.<br>do you have any of the other gear he recommends? <br>I have the Sandvic Laplander folding saw that he sugests and uses, I really like it and have used it loads. Cuts hard- wood well. <br>
