I finally tried my Swiss army knife, locking blade model, on my firesteel and it threw good sparks. I have tried other stainless knives on the firesteel and hardly any sparks. So I carry a Frost Mora carbon as my knife and a LMF firesteel. I am wondering if a better carry option would be my SAK and a larger knife for wood chopping etc, such as a Parang or a Golok. Does any one carry this type of set up, or what are your thoughts on it?

I carry a buffalo creek folding knife with a robust locking blade which has served me well (see attached pic). There are pros (safety when stored) and cons (joint is weak point) to folding knives.

I also sometimes carry a short 35cm long machete sometimes, with these two I can tackle any task

The middle one (the skinner) looks pretty professional have you made that one?
Oh yeah? what else do you use it for?
