In this episode of Modern Outdoor Survival Richard and Amy talk about utility. Multitools, internet ultimate tools and survival tools.
When preparing to go out and undertake any activity, it is wise to select your tools carefully, ensuring that they will get the job done and work with your mode of transportation and limitations such as space and weight. Multitools can be very tempting when walking a long way to your destination and carrying everything on your back. However choose carefully; there are many products now which are advertised as being capable of everything from cutting branches to removing wheel nuts to eating a steak. Some of these stand up to scrutiny and are adequate for several different jobs, but rarely are they as good as their dedicated to one job counterparts. It is also worthwhile practicing the use of any tools in a 'safe' environment, get used to the limitations and find workarounds to common issues. This will make usage in the field much more effective.
