[QUOTE="Lurker66, post: 2375015, member: 24459"] Its an interesting debate. At the end of the day a knife is a tool but I look at it this way. I will take care of a good quality knife. Ill keep it razor sharp, wont abuse it, and cherish it. A cheapo made in china knife will get abused lost or tossed. Next I tried to think how primitive people, indians and moutainmen types, veiwed tools and equipment. These guys were ultimate preppers and survivors. Only rarelydid they carry a pocket knife...maybe no pockets or no boxes to cut open lol. Here in U.S. they carried a belt knife and took great care in not losing it. It was a cherished and valued item. Not many machetes or swords were carried, rather they carried a tomahawk or belt axe. Again a very cherished item. Tomahawks are tougher than machetes imo. Tomahawk, knife and way to make fire....made survival so easy, even a cave man did it. [/QUOTE]
