    Just a quick update on the situation: I just found an old Schrade knife (one of the old USA made ones) that I think I'd like to use as a belt knife. Thanks for all the advice though!

    Lamewolf - Look at the ESEE 4P. There are several different models to choose from. Randal became ESEE so it's the same knife as Ontario was making. It 9 inches long. In between the RAT 3 and RAT 5.

    Yeah, I know but the ESEE 4 is much more expensive than a RAT 4 would be ! I only paid $68 plus tax for my new RAT 7 ! One of these days I'll probable end up with an ESEE 4 though, I already have an ESEE Laserstrike.

    Know what you mean crash, I've never seen a bad product from Ontario myself. And one of their products that is very useful in the outdoors is their Old Hickory butcher knives. Around $13, 1095 high carbon steel and full tang with hickory handle scales. I've got 2 of them, one I reground into a Kephart style blade and the other I left as a butcher knife. They are not real thick blades, but I have never broken one even under hard use. I've seen them used at fleamarkets for as little as a dollar !

    TBH taking up tipi living with a indian gal really wasn't about the tipi LOL.
    so the definition of a criminal is someone who breaks the law and you want me to believe that somehow more laws make less criminals?

    I am a fan of Old Hickory Butcher Knives. Solid knives for the money! And you can flip food on the grill with it in a pinch.

    I've been using a russell skinner cut down into a nesmuck of sorts. I prefer the old hickory type knives over bout anything else. Been thinking about a cold steel bushman.

    I had a Cold Steel Bushman, and I think that's where Cold Steel got its name because that steel handle was colder than a well diggers butt in the winter ! Gave it to a friend, just didn't like it at all !
