Is a hatchet worth the extra weight when backpacking?

Where are you tonight, /out/?

Who was the better MGTOW?

Hello /out/,

I've been seeing a lot of patch threads lately and I felt like it's the right time to lend a hand.

For those of you not familiar with Kommandostore, we're a company spun off of /k/ which sells a lot of military surplus clothing and equipment along with teeshirts, patches, and other goodies we custom manufacture.

I'm posting here now, because KommandoStore is doing a run of patches for /k/ very soon. I've got a graphic team already working on prepping the designs for production, it would be trivial for us to throw in a few more for you guys on top of that.

Provided more than 100 people want any given patch we have the resources to get manufacturing and distribution done cheaply, and the previous experience necessary to ensure that we're delivering a quality product.

TL;DR If you can dream it, we'll buff up the design, and have it available on our site in about 2.5 weeks.

Available patch types:
Iron on 100% embroidered patches with merrowed (sewn) border
Hook and Loop 100% embroidered partches with merrowed (sewn) border
Hook and Loop vinyl patches

Checked the archive, and couldn't find anything. So here it is:

How are kukris for general survival tasks? (more specifically villager kukris)
I've been looking at the Torah blades kurkis and they seem like very good quality knives. They seem like a very good combination since they can save the weight of carrying a large knife + axe, although, they can't perform quite as well. Most kukris are partnered with a smaller knife and a sharpener, which I like.
(I just don't know how the smaller knife would hold up)

Alternatively, how well would an Old Hickory butcher knife + mora perform?

I was thinking of the idea of making a kind of organization between /out/ and /k/ for the purpose of teaching people proper outdoor and survival skills, stuff like fishing and hunting, alongside other stuff like shooting sports.

Not sure about what you guys really do, but /k/ has regular meet ups we call Nuggetfests, alongside other things people organize and they go well, I think with proper planning this could be a thing that would be fun.

What would you think of an /out/door /k/lub?

Does /out/ have any suggestions of places in NC near Charlotte? Looking for some place to go this weekend...

Let's have a thread for cooking.

Using only ingredients found /out/, what could you make?

>tfw southern California /out/ doesn't get much greener than this because of the drought

Get me out of this shithole

What is /out/ doing this afternoon?
