I'd just stick with Cold Steel, or Buck.
Sticking to the theory of using the proper tool for the job, I have a Buck #105 for cutting, and a hand forged trail axe from Snowe and Neely in Bangor Me.  (Not THAT Snowe  ;D  )

No first hand experience with grayman knives sorry but to me it sounds like you need a decent and well made khukuri!
Can be used to chop, skin, self defence, easy to maintain, everything you need in a survival situation
Lots of different profiles and blade sizes on a main design. Just a thought.



Just checked out the web site, and to my horror, discovered that I NEED that khukuri. Thanks Sledge. :P

I received it today. I'll post a review as soon as I get time to take it into the woods for a test run. It's a beast for sure!!

"Firearms stand next in importance to the Constitution itself. They are the American people's liberty, teeth and keystone under independence. The church, the plow, the prairie wagon and citizens' firearms are indelibly related. From the hour the pilgrims landed to the present day, events, occurrences and tendencies prove that, to ensure peace, security and happiness, the rifle and pistol are equally indispensable. Every corner of this land knows firearms, and more than 99 and 99/100 percent of them by their silence indicate that they are in safe and sane hands. The very atmosphere of firearms anywhere and everywhere restrains evil influence. They deserve a place of honor with all that's good. When firearms go, all goes. We need them every hour." George Washington

The biggest kukri, the regimental one, is supposed to be able to behead a water buffalo in one whack.  :o

In this day and age why do you need to "behead a water buffalo?"  Ban it!  ;)

Ritual sacrifices are part of the Gurkha religion.
Being practical little feller's they are usually followed by a feast of Buffalo meat.  ;D
