My second favorite Survival Knife

My second favorite Survival Knife would have to be a Kukri, made famous by the Gurkha's. It is long and curved full tang made from leaf spring steel (shock absorber metal often used in Mercedes-Benz). They are usually about 12-14 inches long looks like a boomerang almost.
They have the durability to chop through cement re-bar and then some. They have a pretty flat handle at the bottom for pounding stuff, and grooves in the handle.
Often comes with two smaller knives for eating which are included in this photo.
Great knife!
