are those practical? I mean, for use as a knife as well.

for $10 I might just pick one up.

It's a serrated plastic edge. I wouldn't try cutting mountaineering rope with it, but it's reasonably sharp. Makes one heck of a box cutter.

The edge can be resharpened with an emery board, too. I wouldn't imagine that it'll keep an edge for long.

Amazon sells three-packs for $25.71. Try a search on Amazon for "FGX".

For about $10 or so they are OK. I pack the tanto model for emergencies in my kayak or canoe when on the water instead of a good knife. I believe mine is the older Zytel material. Certainly not the durability of metal but if I only need it once it will be worth having.

Even a high carbon steel blade can chip or break when in use, any use, but for stabbing purposes the high impact plastic knives are just as good.

They actually stopped an elderly lady who was carring on some yarn and knitting needles and took her stuff.







They were afraid she'd knit an Afgan.

Boooo!

One MUST be prepared for ANY eventuality...
