Coming from the post about Ukrainian knives I would like to have a post similar to the Jeans post the other day.

Outdoor knives are more of a niche topic, but it plays well with some of my outdoor hobbies and knowing your options is also fun, so please keep em coming.

      Thanks to you and your cool boss. Do you also have a not so cool boss, too?

        I actually have 2 cool bosses. The other one is a hacker with ties (but I believe not membership) with the CCC, who has worked helping establish humanitarian tech companies in Africa and who self-hosts whatever he can.

    I was going to recommend Gerlach from Poland but damn, it seems they’re now only into kitchen knives?

    Back in my youth literally every scout boy would be running around with their „finka” (translates to Finnish woman, IDK why) knife.

            Just read up on it. Wenger has split off their knife department, which belongs to Victorinox now.

        I still haven’t a Mora Companion, a classic among classics to have. But I’m not that deep into scandi grind. Anyway I always think about it
