  Put Bear and Les Stroud in the jungle and see which one makes it out, I'll put my money on Les.
  That said, I think I'll stick with with my Gerber Gator I've carried for the last 20 years.

  First off, that was a great video review you did on the cast bullets. The hollow points look
  like they came from a M-P Molds (MiHec) 452-200 with the penta pins installed. They make some
