If we focus on choosing equipment for camping and hiking, we should probably choose the knife most responsibly, as it is one of the most versatile elements of the gear. In addition to knives, you will also find a wide range of different tools for not only outdoor use.
You can choose your new knife according to various parameters. The essential one is naturally the material of both the blade and the handle. Then we have the distinction between fixed blade knives and folding knives. In any case, before making a selection, you should determine what specifically you will need your knife for. Once you specify the purpose, it should not be a problem for you to choose a single, universal knife adapted to your needs and requirements.
At Rigad.cz, there is a truly rich selection of various types of knives available. As we mentioned, the most common types are folding pocket knives and fixed blade knives, but there are many more options. For example, survival knives may have a survival kit in the handle, or at least some of its elements, such as fire starters. After all, heat is one of the basic human needs, and the ability to make a fire is often a decisive factor for survival in an emergency situation.
A specific category is rescue knives, which can be useful not only to professionals but also as optional equipment for your car. Some of these knives are equipped with purposeful elements like glass-breaking tips or belt cutters. Others are equipped with a combination blade that includes a serrated saw for cutting branches or generally preparing wood for kindling.
Multi-functional knives are a kind of transition between knives and multitools, which we will talk more about. Besides the blades, they contain various tools like scissors, screwdrivers, openers, and other implements, which are combined in a highly compact package and can be stowed away in the side pocket of a backpack.
Other tools in our offer are also maximally adapted for use in the field. We are talking about saws or axes, which can be useful for preparing wood for a fire as well as building an emergency shelter. You can build it with the help of shovels or picks. You can clear a path through dense vegetation with a machete, and for other small activities and tasks, the aforementioned multi-functional tool or multitool will come in handy.
The difference between a multi-functional knife and a multitool is that the primary feature of a multi-functional knife is the blade, which is more supplementary in multitools (but still highly functional). The core of multitools is usually pliers, which are complemented by various types of saws, openers, or screwdrivers. A common feature is the ability to attach it with a carabiner to a belt loop, so you always have your more or less universal tool at hand.
Additionally, you can have part of the assortment of knives and tools we offer personalized with laser engraving, allowing you to have an original and always recognizable, "signed" piece.
