I have many knives that are pretty, elegant, exotic, or otherwise valuable. This… isn’t one of them.
The fixed blade I bring camping these days has no make or model; it’s an ugly abomination consisting of an eBay D2 blade blank, handle scales I made from a poly cutting board, and a Kydex sheath I knocked together for it. (I do have a belt loop for the sheath as well, but this bastard is a lot to have dangling from your pants, so these days I omit that and either loop it to my pack with that paracord, or just chuck it in my panniers.)
I use it to clear brambles and split firewood, mostly. Yes, I sharpen it with a belt sander. Sometimes it sees a little wire wheel action if I start to get rust spots on it. You have my permission to be suitably horrified.
Horrified? Nah. It’s a hell of a lot better than I could ever do! Did the tang already have holes drilled?
Yes, it did. Good thing, too. I do have carbide bits and a good drill press, but I’d really rather not have to put a hole through D2 tool steel, let alone five of them.
