What are the tradeoffs for a Tomahawk over an Axe thank you for making the distinktion between a Tomahawk/hatchet and a Handaxe (that is what your belt axe is technically called, according to the bsa at least) |

How could I treat scrapes outdoors without a first aid kit? it is ALLWASE better to washout a wound especialy if you dont have anything to cover it with webmd.com/a-to-z-guides/wound-care-10/… I will also ask my contact if they have documentation. second there WILL be no bacteria (again unless you have an urinary infection, but at that point your in bigger trouble then a minor cut) third I am not talking about using 3-day old urine either. Straight out of the hose.... |

Staying dry in severe weather @hartleybrody I know. thats why I stated "I am going to assume your in a wooded area and not a large open area... if your in a forest or a place with trees near, the trees are going to be taller then you and your more-likely to be safe(r). |
