Product Description
The knife is, without a doubt, the key tool you will use outdoors. With a good knife, you will be able to perform almost all the tasks required on a trip to the wilderness. Lars Fält will guide you through techniques on how to use a knife safely and, perhaps equally important, how to teach children how to use a knife safely. Lars offers many tips throughout the book, including but not limited to how to fell a small tree, the correct way to split wood for a fire, how to start a fire using a knife and fire starter, and a quick lesson on filleting a fish. A well-cared for knife will last a lifetime, and there is a useful chapter that shows us how to care for our knife.
There are detailed explanations about cleaning and sharpening a knife, and caring for the handle and sheath. The knife has been an essential tool in human history, and Lars has written a bit about the history, including a fascinating glimpse into some of the different types used by northern indigenous peoples. Lars Fält is an internationally recognized authority on outdoor and survival skills, and has published a number of successful books on the subject. After a long military career, Lars now dedicates his time to teaching the public the vast knowledge and experience he has acquired over the years.
