If I had a bug out bag I'd put my Ka-Bar or my Pilots survival knife in it along with a multi-tool. Those, along with whatever pocket knife I'm carrying at the moment should take care of any cutting needs short of an axe or saw.
Stupidity is expensive If you find yourself in a fair fight, your tactics suck!
Deflave that Cold Steel TrailMaster Bowie is a nice knife. I've got one of those myself.
hanco, that Buck 119 is the basis for their Ka-bar. Since I was ordering one of those I got one of their Frontier Bowies as well. They didn't make them for a while but are building them again. That has a nice size blade too.
A guy can't have too many nice knives.

I keep knives stashed here nad there and every little where...
Always at least 2 in my dinner pail. 2 in the truck, 2 in my pocket...
There's a couple in a drawer in my tool box in the garage. Same for my tool boxes at work.
I don't actually have a bug out bag but i do carry a canvas shoulder satchel with a few comfort items in case I need to spend unexpected time somewhere or other. And yeah, there's even a couple of knives in there. They are a victorinox classic, an old Henry stag trapper and a rubber handled buck vanguard.
Leatherman wave, Treeman Combat Hunter, Sharpfinger, silky saw and a fiskars hatchet. Cold Steel axe and a SOG multi tool stay in the 4 runner. Never say you can't cut it.

the only real difference between a good tracker and a bad tracker, is observation. all the same data is present for both. The rest, is understanding what you're seeing.
I carry a Cold Steel TrailMaster Bowie and I have a 1917 bayonet for my 1903 A3 and I have an M9 bayonet for my AR.
Flave..where is the best place and price to get an M9? See some on amazon by Ontario but they are different than pics of others online being called “surplus”..? Thanks

I am more enamored with smaller fixed blades these days. I ALWAYS carry a 5" Daniel Winkler Belt knife set up horizontally on the front of my belt. It can be a royal pain in the butt sometimes pinching the flesh but that is the largest knife i can carry in comfort. I high-cap pistol at 3 o'clock and a tourniquet in the back pocket.
I have Scrapyard 711's.....911's...Yard Keeper......Dog father.... Swamp Rat Ratmandu...etc. but everything sits in the safe. I want stuff on me 24/7 and work with that setup until it becomes second nature and an extension of myself.
Whom the gods wish to destroy they first make mad.
I’ve got a big Cold Steel Tanto strapped to mine, + a leather man tool & a Spiderco Bill Moran Skinner inside my pack.
