Hey, recall now, freeper Kanawa killed a bear with a knife!
That I did not know, but I believe it!
My carrying knife is just a 2 1/2 inch blade, Spyderco Harpy. It can do some nasty damage, but it is quite small.
Either of my fixed blade knives could be capable of killing larger animals, especially if made into a spear, but I don’t carry those, I’m not sure that it is legal to carry large blades in Fl.
