Tactical Combat Knife

The tactical combat knife or survival knife can be the one tool that helps you survive out in the wilderness. They are more than just knives, but can be used for a number of different tools. If you are a person that spends a lot of time outdoors, then you know the implementations that these tactical knives can be used for.

There was a time when a man always carried a knife with him where ever he went, and depending on where he went would decide which knife to carry with him. If they were just going on a trip into town, then a simple folding pocket knife would suffice. If they were going out into the wilderness or hunting then a bigger knife would be called for.

In today's' times, there are not as many people as you would think that carry knives in their pockets. People have forgotten the reasons why someone would carry one. The answer is simple; always have a tool do certain jobs. Sometimes there may be a call for a tool that you do not normally carry around with you, and then sometimes you may need a knife for self defense or some other combat purpose.

When it comes to choosing the right tactical knife for you, there are several things that you may want to consider. One of the first things that you want to consider is the purpose behind the tactical combat knife. Do you want it for combat or just general survival? Do you want a folding knife or a straight knife? These are a couple of very important questions that you need to ask yourself.

For most people, when they think combat knife they are thinking that they need to go out and buy some big knife that Rambo would use. This could not be any further from the truth. There are several reasons why these large knifes are not ideal. One of which is the size and weight of the knife itself. A good size tactical knife should have a blade of only five to six inches in length. This will be more than sufficient for any combat needs that you may have. These larger knives tend to weigh more and will only make your load that much more burdensome. Other things to look for in a knife intended for combat are a spear shaped blade with double edges. For best handling and to ensure that you do not lose your grip in the middle of combat, try to find one that has a non-slip handle.

If you want a tactical combat knife simply for self defense purposes, then a smaller version of the knife would be better. I should be light weight and easy to carry. This will allow you to always carry the knife and be able to retrieve it when necessary.

When it comes to emergency situations, you want to choose a tactical knife that has a hook knife and a glass breaker. These can help you out if you are ever in a car accident and need to cut a seat belt or some other related situation. There are many uses for these knives in emergency situations.

As you can see there are several things to consider when buying a tactical combat knife. Think about each one of these before deciding on what is right for you. make sure that the knife fits the purpose that you need it for.
