First off, what is a Go Bag? The basic concept of a Go Bag is simply a bag or pack of some sort loaded with the necessary gear to get you out of a bad situation quickly. Most of us would probably use this tool in a home defense situation where we would want to [...]

Our first impression of the Victorinox Rescue Tool is a good one. This is a very solid well made folding tool. The first thing you notice is the color. This is designed as an emergency tool, so its bright yellow (StayGlow) handles really stand out keeping this tool from becoming lost if dropped, The bright red and yellow sheath is also hard to miss. For more low key applications there is a black version available. The Victorinox RescueTool fits well in the hand and three of the most important blades are one hand opening and closing even with gloves. This could be a good all around knife. The specialized blades are still useful in other applications. For an EMT or Paramedic this would be a must have tool in my opinion. For a first aid kit or emergency bag this is also a great tool for the money.

We put three outdoor utility / survival knives side by side to compare their features. Here are the Glock 78 Field Knife, the Benchmade 155 SBK-ADC (with ADC Sheath) and the Cold Steel SRK. All three of these are very well made and strong knives. These are all about the same size in length, but the handles are various sizes and materials.

Three Survival Knives Compared

Becker Combat Utility Knife BK-71 has a seven inch long clip point blade which is .188 inches thick made from 0170-6C carbon steel. The Becker BK-71 weighs 12.9 ounces. The Becker Combat Utility Knife sheath is ambidextrous and made from nylon with a kydex liner. It has a pouch ont he front for a sharpener or folding pocket knife / multi tool. This is a rugged knife that will hold up to almost any abuse. 
Desert tan blade coating is a thermally cured polymer finish that is scuff and corrosion resistant. Becker GV6H thermoplastic alloy ergonomic handles of the Desert series knives are finished in a unique disrupted desert tan pattern that will blend into the current issue camouflage pattern fatigues better than the standard black handle.
