Bombadillo, I couldn't agree more. I carry a hatchet in my Jeep for wheeling/camping trips and a saw in my backpack for who knows what. I always have a knife on me, currently a Benchmade I traded some labor for, cause I can't afford one.
The original ? is about Bear Grylls not about his products, though it's taken that route. The knife seems to have a decent amount thought put into it. I would also rather the LMF II but seems like it's worth throwing in the car for emergencys. It may not be on par with an exspensive Benchmade or even the LMF but look at what you get for the price point. It's like a Kimber 1911 vs the Hi-Point .45acp. How many of you have shot someone with your $1000+ Kimber, probably none. Will it do the job the maybe 1 time you do, of course it will. Will the Hi-point do the same job that one time? yes it will. And you can't say that's apples & oranges because they both go BANG when you pull the trigger. Just like the knives will cut whether they are $50 or $700.
As for Bear himself:
How is Bear a "tool"? He was trained to survive and kick ***, which he's obviously done well having broken his back from a jump where his parashoot didn't open correctly. How'd you do after that? He's a god fearing man who loves his family and supports them. He's not getting government aid, like welfare for example. He entertains people by doing some cool yet may not be doable by everyone(physically or realistically) stuff on "TV". Remember its TV, the producers edit everything and the TV personality rarely have a say. Ask Ashley Spurlin from season 2 Top Shot. They made him out to be a bully and that was NOT the case. All I'm saying is I'd rather have him as a neighbor than most people on this forum. So I ask again how is he, as a person "tool"?
If you don't like him don't watch his show, don't buy his products but calling him a "tool" seems a bit harsh.
