6 survival knives to give you the edge on any outdoor trip

Ask any camper from the greenest Boy Scout to Bear Grylls: If there's one thing you need on any survival kit, it's a trusty knife. Here are six of our current favorites, all of them sale-priced, durable enough for any situation and small enough to carry anywhere.

BLITZ Mini Tactical Pocket Knife

This stubby, folding tanto blade is as small as it is easy to grip, two factors that make it ideal for forceful work. That includes wood carving, seat belt cutting or any number of situations where you need that little bit of extra strength. The BLITZ Mini Tactical Pocket Knife is made of 440 carbon stainless steel, and it's currently priced at $35, more than 40% off the original price.

Pocket Samurai Titanium Keychain Knife

The tapered point on this 440C stainless steel knife is an homage to the katanas of ancient Japan, but the Pocket Samurai is anything but a novelty. The titanium handle is just as durable as the blade, and it's tiny enough to be used as a money clip or keychain accessory. Right now, it's 25% off the retail price at $29.99.

Dapper 150 Ultra Slim Knife

Lightweight and corrosion-resistant, the Dapper 150 is equally at home whittling wood or slicing off cigar tips. The 420 stainless steel blade is secure in the slip joint handle, yet pops out easily for quick access. Pick up the Dapper 150 Ultra Slim Knife for $18, 27% off the MSRP.
