which good sources are around about bushcraft in the jungle? the only books I find are out of print or are about survival... any jungle survival book that you would recommend? any ideas?

pfff... I wish I had the time to try out and check various.. but time and money (before I leave to brazil) only allows me 1 scandi to bring with me... so many nice knives out here!! but I guess it doesn't matter that much... I have found a koster bushcraft (cpm3v) for sale... do you think the...

which carbon steel does it come with?

which stainless steel has the Helle? and do you think it is as good as carbon for scandi grind? I'm new in steel properties, but as far as I've read, carbon is prefered for scandi.. for me wear resistance and not to heavy for sharpening is the most important.. something which is more...

hmm.. but I suppose that these convex scandi has a convex-behaviour when working wood? or is this grind leaning more towards the scandi feel?

those are convex indeed, but I'm searching for a scandi grind... most of them are in O1 (in the carbon range) but that's a bit to corrosion sensitive for me A2 and 3V are better corrosion resistant, that's why... and what is a scandi convex?

hello... I am looking for a full tang cpm3v scandi grind bushcraft knife... so far I've found shing and skookum bush tool. Are there any other around you know of? A2 sugestions are also welcome cheerios, Peter

For alround work, do you think the bravo 1 is better than the gunny (being bigger and sturdier I guess) except for the size I see no difference in these 2...

Do you mean steel plates or blank blades? as far as I've seen on the enzo trapper and fallkniven f1 blank blades are not that much cheaper.. I'm gonna take a look at all the blades you guys proposed here :-)

thanks!! en zeker en vast :-)

thanks! what a nostalgia when looking at the forest in his youtube movies!!!

I think I will go for the bravo 1... beautiful knife!! more expensive than my goal, but I think it's worth spending extra. together I'll get me one or two mora's for the skandi grind, for the more precise carving needed. I still want to get me a bachup knife, in case the bravo desides to leave...

thanks for all the replies!! and what about A2 steels by bark river? A2 also isn't stainless but as far as I read possible for jungle environment.. After searching a lot of info, I'm getting to think D2 is not best suited for skandi grind.. so there goes the enzo trapper from my list...

well.. in Brazil import taxes are ridiculous... and don't fancy either being cought with illegal importing :-) I think I want to by myself a fallkniven f1.. and also fancy the enzo trapper. but there seem to be a lot of complaints about de D2 chipping. the O1 calls me more, but hot and wet...

I forgot to include the material in the question... so.. carbon or stainless steel? And... when advising the grind... which knife would you advice for about £100? I was thinking about enzo trapper for scandi and falkniven f1 for convex. Is there any better for that money?

question background: I will move back to Brazil and probably live there for the rest of my life. I live in nature there so bushcraft is a big part of my every day life. Quality knives in Brazil are very expensive!!! and in the region I lived, city life and comfort already snuck in to the small...

Hello, I am Peter from Belgium. Currently being in Belgium, but soon moving back to Brazil (where I lived for 2 years in the atlantic rainforest) I recently discovered about bushcraft and all the information and courses available! and I'm feeling like a fish in a vast ocean!! hehe When I...
