What on Earth for should I use any multitool?

I don't live in the bush, so I dont think I NEED one

Les Stroud is ace.

There are a few clips on youtube.

Ray Mears is uber king of bushcraft - not everyman.

Les Stroud is everyman, doesn't mind including the footage of when he messes something upand doesn't try to be master of everything. He just tries to show survival in an everyman kind of way.

And yet I gave you a tool, the positives of it, and you cant even comment on. What exactly ARE you looking for here?

Actually it did a squirrel no good 2 weeks ago.The snakes we have are protected species,and tbh a sheep would be far easier or the arable crops ,at least in the season....

"is that a lucky pendant ?"

I honestly think I would die when I would live in the wild ..... can't get it over my heart to kill something

And prob. I'd eat the wrong berries too

I thought that too ...but mind over matter and all that ,I make sure i appreciate what has laid its life down....
Also this was a grey squirrel which kill our native smaller and cuter red squirells..so i was doing them a favour ...

At the end of the day if you are hungry enough you will eat ...squirrel is far nicer than rabbits eyeballs for instance..

Good Topic Stanton, I started using multi-tools when in boy scouts. We didn't go anywhere without the ol' swiss army knife. I've lost so many knives over the years it's sickening. I've donated two leatherman waves to Davey Jones Locker. Damn things don't float. At $80 to $90 bucks a pop I downgraded to the one I carry now. It's a Kershaw Multi-tool, $50 or so.
My preference are the ones with the needle noes pliers due to my fishing habit. None of the Multi-tools I've owned has a wire cutter that's any good. This kershaw is kind of cool because it has a channel lock feature on it that comes in handy. I use it daily btw, and I agree plenty of phillips screw heads out there.

After I too donated a Leatherman to Davey Jones, I rigged up a little retractable cord to the belt-sheath of my new one. Its 8 feet long, meaning I have plenty of extra length(and a handle zip cord in a pinch). Ive dropped it now countless times, but it never goes anywhere now.

Cant go wrong with a Kershaw product, too, though. I carry the Kershaw Ken Onion Leak as my pocket knife. Its spring loaded so I can open in with literally two fingers, its very sturdy, and holds great edge. I also love that their products have a lifetime guarantee(although in a SHTF scenario, this really is moot)
