What is a wsk knife?

I didn't know myself. I have been collecting pocket knives, combat survival knives and just about any knife you can come up with since I was just learning to walk and I had never heard the term wsk knife.

WSK knife is an acronym for wilderness survival knife. Who'da thunk it.

Now that we're on the subject of wsk knives and combat survival knives, let me tell you about a couple of my favorites.

Combat Survival Knives

One very nice looking survival knife that is truly built to stand wilderness survival, and meets the definition of a wsk knife is the Foster Knives Fears Survival Knife.

WSK Knives

What would constitute a wilderness survival knife? Well, I think a good fixed blade, at least 4 inches but no more than 6 inches. I would definitely take nothing less than a full tang blade. It must be stainless steel, of course. A single edge is all that I would want. Masters of Defense Nightwing
