Can I Carry a Lock Knife or Fixed Blade Knife in the UK?
<p dir="ltr">Knives in this collection are sold to adults only, so <strong>you must be 18 or over to buy them, and UK law requires a good reason to carry a locking or fixed blade knife in public</strong>, such as for work or a planned bushcraft trip. For everyday carry, many people choose a small non-locking folder like the <a href="https://www.woodtowater.co.uk/products/opinel-no-4-classic-originals-non-locking-stainless-steel-keyring-knife">Opinel No.4 Keyring Knife</a> or the <a href="https://www.woodtowater.co.uk/products/whitby-sprint-edc-pocket-knife-1-75-various-colours">Whitby SPRINT EDC Pocket Knife</a>.</p>
Should I Choose a Carbon Steel or Stainless Steel Blade?
<p dir="ltr">Carbon steel is easy to sharpen to a keen edge but needs drying and oiling to prevent rust, while <strong>stainless steel is the lower-maintenance choice for wet weather and everyday use</strong>. Opinel offers both, so you can compare the <a href="https://www.woodtowater.co.uk/products/opinel-classic-originals-carbon-steel-knife-various-sizes">Classic Originals Carbon Steel</a> with the <a href="https://www.woodtowater.co.uk/products/opinel-classic-originals-stainless-steel-knife-various-sizes">Classic Originals Stainless Steel</a>. A little <a href="https://www.woodtowater.co.uk/products/opinel-maintenance-oil">Opinel Maintenance Oil</a> keeps either type in good condition.</p>
Which Knife Is Best for Bushcraft?
<p dir="ltr">For carving, feather sticks and general camp tasks, <strong>a sturdy fixed blade with a sheath is usually the most practical bushcraft choice</strong>. Popular options include the <a href="https://www.woodtowater.co.uk/products/morakniv-companion-spark-black-bushcraft-knife">Morakniv Companion Spark</a>, the <a href="https://www.woodtowater.co.uk/products/petromax-bushcraft-knife-10-5cm-with-sheath">Petromax Bushcraft Knife</a> and the <a href="https://www.woodtowater.co.uk/products/kombat-brecon-bushcraft-knife">Kombat Brecon</a>.</p>
