wow thats as big as my camp knife, id have to put a small PFD on it or it could bring me down if i kept it on myself...
If a bear passes the bangers, the flares, the spray, the screams, the stones thrown at him and the swearing i think its a too determined bear and probably the knife its still not enough, but i cant carry a cannon so... not really sure what id do, probably just say "oh sh...".
Never encoutered a bear, moose(s?) and wolfs only and they never tried anything bad, usually they were the scared ones, well the moose(s?) not that scared.
: I carry a large military knife with me when I paddle in the wilderness (yeah,
: yeah, I remember the comments made about this years ago). The link below
: will show you what I carry. I do not carry this knife within city limits
: because that serves little purpose other than to get arrested. This knife
: was recommended to me as useful as a means to protect myself in case of
: bear attack in the wilderness when all else has failed (bangers, pepper
: spray, flares, etc.), hence the 8" serated double edges. The knife
: never leaves its sheath and stays out of sight at home.
