I do this for a living, carry a knife. I Taught survival for 20 years in the military and after 9/11 worked on a security team. Now I'm back into teaching folks who are heading overseas. In the last 30 years of service I've come up with two fixed blade knives which held up to what I put them through and could be afforded by normal people. (everyone needs a Randall but I put that money into body armour)Both are BlackJack knives. The first was my heavy blade, the Anaconda, This was my pack knife which did all the chores from quartering game, chopping firewood to pounding in tent stakes. Its also gone through two sheaths and is indestructible. The second is my carry knife, the Blackjack Halo. The Halo is made of A2 tool steel and again can't be beat. When I sent my last carry knife, one I had custom made and carried for twenty years (A2 also, to Afghanistan with a friend I needed a replacement. the fellow I had make my blade wasn't around anymore so I went to the one company that impressed me. The halo has the right balance, edge retention, strength and durability to stand up to anything. I like the finger groves, it makes it almost impossible to lose control of the knife, but if you don't like them they make them without. best of all its made in the USA.
