I highly doubt I will ever be hacking my way out of an aircraft, but I’ll keep that in mind!shotgunshooter3 wrote: ↑Sat Aug 05, 2023 1:23 am Solid choice. The Army's Aviation survival knife for a long time was an Ontario knife very similar to that but with a rubber handle. If it's a true aviation survival knife it should also have a partial tang instead of full, in case you accidentally cut through electrical wiring (one of the purposes of those knives is to cut through the skin of an aircraft).
I actually prefer a Gerber LMF II for a survival/aviation knife, but the Ontario is solid.
