Knife

Obtain a reliable knife according to your needs, and your local laws and regulations.


      An edc knife for utilitarian and daily purposes should suffice. But individuality creates a market where we can choose thousands of knife designs to our liking. Depending on our jobs we can match what we need to carry. What matters is that it can serve us well and can be depended upon when in time of needs.

     Indeed it is dangerous, it can cut you or others if not handled responsibly. That's why when you  edc a knife you must be fully aware of its capabilities and limitations, and must be very careful while handling it or lending it to others. It is often illegal on some areas but fine on others, specially if you use it in order to make a living like for example kitchen knives on street vendors.

     Sure we can use our hands to rip something apart or our teeth to bite something we want to open but we cannot dismiss the fact that no part of our body was designed for cutting. That is why it is one of the most primitive tool ever invented. It is the most useful tool in human survival situations. Forage and prepare food. Make shelter. Make bow drill to start fire.

     Even in modern times the knife is still being used. There is no tool that can replace it. It has lots of uses like opening packs and boxes, cutting ropes and cable ties, carve wood or anything you do that needs cutting. A knife is an integral part not only of an edc but of an emergency kit. In emergency situations it can be used to cut seat belt or any cord that entangled you or your loved ones.
