Will be interesting to see what is decided as "the" configuration of "the safari knife". My idea of it, is actually all sorts of knives for different purposes, but perhaps also, a knife which can be used for all sorts of purposes as most can be used.

Funnily, usually a "safari knife" needs to be a dirt cheapie as the locals if using it, can damage it instantly.

I had a Zim PH here once making sausages with me - boerwoers - and within two minutes he had broken the tip off the knife of one of my nice sharp kitchen knives .... even the Mazunga Africans are hopeless with knives it seems.

Intrigued to see the design you come up with.
