Outdoors such as camping and fishing will become active toward the summer, but EDC knives are useful at such times! This time, we will introduce 10 recommended outdoor sheath knives that can be used for various purposes such as chopping firewood and handling fish.
Summer is the outdoor season!
A season when outdoor events are fun!
Speaking of summer, there are many opportunities to go to the sea, rivers, mountains, etc. Summer, when fishing and camping are active, can be said to be a fun season for the outdoors! It is standard to enjoy BBQ etc. at the campsite and fishing at the sea, but there are many people who prepare tools for the first time to experience something that cannot be experienced in EDC, especially for families.
Opportunity to use unused tools?
In camping and fishing, you will also use tools that you do not use in your personal life. EDC knives are most likely not to be used. Many homes have scissors or can be opened without tools, but EDC are the ones that don’t go that way. Firewood and twigs need to be processed, and fish caught must be handled.
Should I have a knife?
Excellent thing that can be used for various things
A simple camp can be done without such strict equipment, but in a free campsite that is not well maintained to some extent, you need to collect firewood and set your own fire. In such a case, it becomes necessary to make twigs into feather sticks, and knives are useful. There are other opportunities to play an active role, so I’d like to have one knife ready!
Also useful for reducing luggage!
It is convenient to bring a kitchen knife when cooking at the camp, but since it is large, your luggage will be bulky. In such a case, if you bring a folding knife, you can expect to save a lot of space. Many of the folding knives these days have some features, and even tool knives have amazing features such as USB. Why don’t you aim for a smart EDC with a knife that suits you!
Is it okay to carry it around?
OK if you have a good reason
Some people may have a sense of refusal or a sense of crisis in taking out a knife, but under the Firearms and Swords Act (Firearms and Swords Possession Control Act) and the Anti-nuisance Ordinance, carry a knife to a campsite if it has the correct purpose. But there is no problem. You need to be careful when handling it, but if it is used correctly, it will be a good experience, so it is good to experience it.
Keep it safe and carry it!
When you carry it, do not accidentally plunge it into your pocket, but carry it in your luggage properly. No matter how good the reason is, there is no use until you reach your destination, so you need to keep it safe. Ideally, you should put it in a bag or prepare a special case so that it cannot be taken out immediately!

The definitive version of multi-tool!
This is one of the multi-tools sold by the brand “LEATHERMAN”. Among the multi-tools, it is of fairly high quality and is used by many people.

It’s a popular tool, so it’s out of stock
It’s great, but sometimes it’s so popular that it’s out of stock. There are products that are imported and sold in parallel, but we do not recommend them because quality assurance and handling of defective products are often inadequate.
