Here we are with 2011 about to begin within the next few hours, so I thought this would be the perfect time to post about the top stories published during 2010 here at MIN.
How do I know what are the top stories of the year are? Well, I am a control freak, so I constantly keep track of the number of hits that each article gets. Based on those hits, here are the stories that got the most visits and were linked to by the most "outside" news sources and web sites.
If you are a fan of giant monster movies, either with or without 80s pop stars in them, namely "Godzilla", then 2010 was your year. Fans all over the world went loco when Legendary pictures announced that they were going to produce a brand-new "G" film in 2012. Also the numerous monster epics produced by The Asylum for the SyFy channel were very popular.
The top story, however, did not involve a giant lizard, but a group of popular paranormal investigators, who have their own TV show, that manged to walk through the busy hallways of Comic Con undetected.
Here is this years top stories:
10. Long Lost Print Of KING KONG Discovered In London Cinema
It seems that a rare print of the 1933 classic film "King Kong" has turned up in a rather unlikely place, buried in the wall of a London cinema.
During recent renovations to the Grosvenor Cinema, a worker named Ross McMillan was working on knocking down a partition wall in the projection room when he noticed something odd looking in the rubble. To his amazement he discovered that it was a copy of "King Kong." Not just any copy, mind you, a copy that has been missing from the vaults of RKO for more than seventy years. An original print, that may very well contain scenes cut out of the film, including the long-lost Lizard and Spider canyon sequences.
9. Godzilla 3-D, Godzilla 2012, Rumors And Misinformation Abound
It seems that I may have been duped? Earlier today I posted an article about the possible hiring of Keith Melton as the director of Legendary Pictures/Warner Bros upcoming "Godzilla" movie.
Now, that I have had time to do some research, it seems that this report was in error......or was it? Frankly, I'm not sure, there seems to be some confusion.
Now, first off, my source for the Melton hiring, was IMDB, which I have learned from fans, is about as reliable a source for movie info as a drunk at a party.
8. "Xena" The Movie? Lawless Still Wants To Resurrect The 'Warrior Princess'
Back in 2008 actress Lucy Lawless made it public that she wanted to reprise the role that made her a fanboy....and fangirl....favorite, that of "Xena, The Warrior Princess."
Well her we are almost two years later, and Lawless is echoing the same desire to strap on the leather again. This time, however, the New Zealander doesn't think that reviving the series is the answer. No, Lawless thinks that it is time for a "Xena" movie.
The actress recently told reporters, "I love that character. I would do it if it was a movie. I doubt I would do it as a TV series. I can't see how you would make it fresh."
Just like before, Lawless understands that she isn't getting any younger, and the time may be now to get the ball rolling on any "Xena" related projects.
7. The First Look At Roger Corman's 'Dinoshark'
Isn't it wonderful that giant mutant monsters are popular again. After J.J. Abrams unleashed his giant monster movie, "Cloverfield", in theaters two years ago, there has been a non-stop parade of independent features where the motto, "bigger is better", has really been taken seriously.
Last year, The Asylum, made a huge media splash with their film "Mega Shark vs Giant Octopus". The film featured former 80s pop sensation, Debbie Gibson, playing second fiddle to a titanic shark and an equally gigantic octopus. Likewise, films of the same vein like, "Dinocroc vs. Supergator", "Megaconda," and even The Asylum's follow-up to "Mega Shark", called "Megapiranha", were all rushed into production by the end of 2009.
Now it seems that the king of B movie monsters, Roger Corman, was feeling a little left-out by all of this, so he has developed his own giant monster film for the SyFy Channel called, "Dinoshark."
Lets see....Megaconda....Dinocrock.....Mega Shark........Dinoshark. Makes perfect sense in the grand scheme of things, doesn't it?
6. New Legendary Pictures GODZILLA Design To Be Revealed At Comic Con!
Many things can be determined from looking at this really cool artwork, the most important of which is the fact that the studio is going to go with the 'classic' Japanese Godzilla look, instead of trying to reinvent the monster like Tristar tried to do back in 1998.
That should put a lot of the fears expressed by the fan base to rest.
It is obvious from this that Legendary is taking this project very seriously and like in the very first Godzilla film (Gojira 1954) the monster will be 'true' bringer of mass destruction.
Which means plenty of city stomping action that should make all of us Godzilla movie fans very, very happy.
Am I reading too much from just a simple t-shirt image. Possibly, but at least you can gauge the 'general' idea of where Legendary Pictures is intending to go with this.
"Old School"
5. Gemma Arterton To Replace Sigourney Weaver In New ALIEN 3D?
Ever since Sigourney Weaver turned down a chance to reprise the role of Ripley in Ridley Scott's upcoming "Alien 3D" prequel, the film maker has been searching for a strong, yet beautiful, woman to take on H.R. Giger's most famous creation.
There have been plenty of names floating around, but none of them seemed to be in any serious contention for the lead role in the film, that is, until now.
Though her publicists were trying to deny it like mad, "Prince Of Persia" star Gemma Arterton has come forward publicly to announce that she has the inside track to land the coveted role. At the Toronto International Film Festival this past weekend, where Arterton was in attendance promoting her new film "Tamara Drewe" the actress let it slip that, "The honest truth is that Ridley Scott has approached me to meet with him about something in the next few weeks."
4. Zack Snyder To Helm New Superman Movie
While the last Superman movie, Superman Returns, had spectacular special effects and it made over $200 million, it is considered a flop as it failed to re-start the franchise.
It is rumored that the movie is to feature the Kryptonian villain, General Zod. Right now, Legendary Pictures and Warner Brothers are being tight-lipped.
But who will play the Man of Steel? Whomever it is, he has to look like Superman, not Superboy. And ditch that last costume design!
3. Jurassic Park 4 Has Risen From The Grave..And So Has 5 & 6?
Back in 2008, immediately after the death of Jurassic Park author writer Michael Crichton, Universal and producers Frank Marshall and Kathleen Kennedy announced that they had decided to abandon any hopes of producing a fourth film.
That was two years ago, it it seems that everyone involved has gotten over mourning the loss of Crichton and are now ready to go forward with "Jurassic Park 4", plus "5" and "6", for that matter.
"Jurassic Park 3" director Joe Johnston has now come forward and announced that Universal is ready to launch a brand new trilogy that will be a whole new bread of cat.
"There is going to be a Jurassic Park IV. And it's going to be unlike anything you've seen. It breaks away from the first three - it's essentially the beginning of the second Jurassic Park trilogy. It's going to be done in a completely different way.
"If you think of the first three as a trilogy, number four would be the beginning of a second trilogy. We just want to make them justified in their own right. We don't want to make sequel after sequel just because there's a market for it. We want to tell different, interesting stories."
The last time anyone heard about "Jurassic Park 4", was way back in August of 2007. At that time, Laura Dern had been reportedly cast to reprise her role as Ellie Sattler from the first film.
2. It's Official! A New Godzilla Movie Is Coming In 2012!
Rumors that Legendary Pictures were in the process of making a new, American, "Godzilla" film first surfaced last August, and now they have been officially confirmed.
Yes, my friends, the studio has just announced that they have struck a deal with the famed Toho studios in Japan to produce a brand-new "Godzilla" movie, which will be released through Warner Bros in 2012.
According to the deal, Warner Bros will co-produce the film, and pony up some of the cash for it, while Toho will release the film in Japan.
There isn't a director yet, but the studio has announced that Dan Lin, Roy Lee Brian Rogers, Yoshimitsu Banno, Kenji Okuhira and Doug Davison will all serve as producers.
Thomas Tull, Chairman and CEO of Legendary Pictures, commented, "Godzilla is one of the world's most powerful pop culture icons, and we at Legendary are thrilled to be able to create a modern epic based on this long-loved Toho franchise. Our plans are to produce the Godzilla that we, as fans, would want to see. We intend to do justice to those essential elements that have allowed this character to remain as pop-culturally relevant for as long as it has."
Sources close to the deal note that it will be similar in scope to other Warner/Legendary films, co-productions, such as "The Dark Knight" and "300".
1. GHOST ADVENTURES - Zak Bagans, Nick Grof And Aaron Goodwin At Comic Con 2010
Like I mentioned in my previous article, my experience at Comic Con was a little 'different' than that of the 'typical' fan. Instead of lusting after the 'trendy' movies and shows, my family and I were excited about a lot of things that weren't so mainstream.
One of these was the television series, "Ghost Adventures", and my wife April, son Christopher and I were really looking forward to meeting the shows stars Zak Bagans, Nick Grof and Aaron Goodwin at an autograph signing later in the afternoon.
As luck would have it, the very same people, Zak, Nick and Aaron,that we so strongly wanted to see, arrived at the convention at the exact same time that we did. Amazingly, they were just milling around in the area adjacent to the check-in and autograph areas. To our delite, we were able to snap a few photos and talk to Aaron for a few seconds. My wife was very happy to have told him that 'he was the shit!'
To our surprise, no one else even recognised them.

Update - I just got an email from these folks.....
They are looking into what it will take to send me an Imkerpfeife and say that they will get back to me this week. I had to use the google translator to communicate but so far this is my best lead. odfrank, give it a try if as well if you want one of these smokers! Their email is firstname.lastname@example.com
-Little John
Also, I have gotten a PM from another member asking to be put in on the order. We could look at making one big order to make it easier and more appealing for a German shipment! Send me a PM if you want me to try to order one for you too.

Regarding the "disposing" of the stocks, according to the book "Skeps: Their History, Making & Use" colonies were either suffocated or driven from the hives prior to harvest. Toward the end of skep dominance it sounds like more beekeepers were using the "driving" method. Especially if harvesting in the fall, the colonies would be driven from the skep being harvested into a skep with an established colony -- essentially combined. This way they would have enough stores to overwinter. In this process, of course, any brood would be lost -- which I believe you can see the beekeeper cutting out when selecting the combs to crush/strain in the videos.
Just wanted to say that Wildforager came through in shining colors. I also wanted to thank him in public for the effort. I got my brand new Imkerpfeifen (Beekeepers Pipe) yesterday. So I may be a newbie but I got one really awesome smoker.
I heard a roomer that he has a few more, but only a few so if anyone is interested you might want to pester him a bit. They are the same thing you see in the videos with the cork and everything.
I am just tickled.
Are you going to use it? If so let us know how it works with a lang.
Brian Cardinal
Zone 5a, Practicing non-intervention beekeeping
Ace, I fired it up for the first time this afternoon. I was a bit concerned about getting smoke blown int eh entrance of a lang if it was setting on the ground. I can blow smoke all the way to the ground if I am trying and I am over 6 feet tall. It took a couple of tries to get it lit but that was because you have to blow a lot harder than I first thought to get the fire started. Otherwise as nice as I expected it to be. Easy to hold in my mouth even without a veil. Just don't suck in, shredded paper makes a real nasty tasting smoke. Anyone have a fuel for the smoker with a decent smell to it?
One real nice thing about this smoker is it is very simple to light once you figure out to blow as hard as you can at first. After that I was more likely to get it smoking to much.
I wonder if desert sage would make a good smoker fuel? Its used for smudge sticks and that smells nice, in my opinion. You might be able to find some of that in your area, Daniel. I don't know if it would be bad for the bees or not.
I'll give it a shot and let you know. Sage is about all there is growing around here so coming up with some is about a difficult as finding in weeds in most places. Tough plant though so cutting will be some work you can't just grab it and snap it off like other bushes or plants. I was just reading another thread on smoker fuel and was thinking about some sort of wood (possibly sage) wrapped up in pieces of cotton or burlap. Making it into little rolls that fit into the pipe.
Scrapfe---Never believe anything in politics until it has been officially denied.--Otto von Bismarck.
Actually tobacco plant stalks are one thing I do have. I just have to dig them out of the compost pile. I grow my own tobacco. I was saying something to my wife earlier about how I wish I had the room to grow some extra tobacco and I would just stuff it with tobacco leaf. Don't have to stop for smoke breaks that way either.
I was wondering how cool the smoke was.
Brian Cardinal
Zone 5a, Practicing non-intervention beekeeping
Ace I got it stoked up pretty good. actually started wondering if you could melt the pipe and had smoke just bellowing out of the thing. but any heat was from my breath and not the smoke. Otherwise when you have it going reasonably well it is a very fine misty smoke. I had a bit of a learning curve in how often to blow and it does not take that much at all to keep it going. I had to run int the house for something and left the pipe setting out in the cold for over 5 minutes. came back and it was still going just fine. So I intentionally set it aside for a half hour and it still started right up when I blew in it again. What I like about it is that it is always right there. you don't have to reach for the smoker while you are working. just blow. The hardest thing for me is to not suck on it. I do smoke a tobacco pipe from time to time and I will start drawing on it if my mind is on something else. Not a big deal it just tastes nasty. maybe if I start using tobacco stalks for fuel I wont mind so much. one puff for the bees one puff for me, ah two puffs for me...
Just found a place yesterday that I will be able to grow over 1600 tobacco plants this year. it has sort of sent me into overdrive on planning for this year. I was expecting to grow 260. If we do grow that much it should be a 3 year supply of tobacco for 4 people. And tons of stalks.
I would not use tobacco, since nicotine is toxic to bees. The plant actually uses it when the flower is pollinated to keep bees away from it. For some reason I thought the German pipe has a one way valve in it so you cannot suck on it. I may have to go to the German website and check on it. At least I can read German since I grew up there.

The minute I saw one of these on that video I wanted one just for kicks but I think they are a little pricey. What did it cost you in dollars to get it to your door?
Brian Cardinal
Zone 5a, Practicing non-intervention beekeeping
There is a one way ball valve inside that is supposed to stop any smoke from being sucked in. I still haven't tried mine yet but I will soon enough. I'm selling the extra ones I have for $70 + $11 shipping (USPS flate rate box). This covers the costs of the pipe and corkmantel, shipping to my friend in Germany, shipping to me, currency conversion fees to euros, and I gave my friend a tip for helping me. A traditional smoker with bellows is quite a bit cheaper but I know of no one in the states selling these pipes.
Just checked with someone in Germany, and read a couple of German sites. The Imkerpfeife comes in various versions. With and without ball valve. The valve prevents you from sucking the smoke into your mouth. They also sell products called Pfeifentabak. Tabak means tobacco. They do not use real tobacco, because it is toxic to bees. It is some herbal mix. Most beekeepers simply use dried grass or wood shavings and do not buy these products. It's more cost effective to just use dried grass.

I found the ball and it is designed to be in place with gravity. it still is not stopping all reverse air flow though. Forager it is under the knurled button just as the stem enters the pipe body. unscrew that and there is a plastic ball setting in there. makes it accessible for cleaning. Maybe it takes a little build up of gunk to seal up air tight.
If there is not a spring than it is relying on gravity so the attitude of the smoker will be important. Gunk usually messes up a check valve.

Well Daniel, If you but the right "fuel" in there it might change your attitude and all will be well. :-)

text: Today I looked at the hive in my yard and noticed some white stuff under it - something that had fallen through the SBB. I picked some up and it is wax. I figure nothing is wrong since this means the bees I got this week are in there making wax and they're getting the food they need, but why are they dropping wax scales? Do they just drop some while they're working? Is it normal?

Using CFL bulbs outdoors
Get CFL-compatible photocells for outdoor lights. One supplier is precisionmulticontrols.com
Homeowners have discovered that CFLs controlled by photocells don't always work right. The problem is with the photocell, not the bulb. The circuitry in older photocells often isn't compatible with the ballasts in CFLs. But that doesn't mean you have to throw out the old fixture— just retrofit it. We found a manufacturer that guarantees its photocells will work with all CFLs on the market. Precision Multicontrols sells several styles of photocells and you can buy them at its Web site, precisionmulticontrols.com. Buy a weatherproof electrical box or a three-hole floodlight mounting plate and attach a stem-mounted photocell in one of the openings. Then connect the new photocell in place of the old one. If you have a lamppost, you can convert it with the "button"-style photocell shown.

COIN OPERATED GIRL: Olympia (Georgia Jarman, soprano) sings the famous "Doll Song" to woo Hoffman (Gerard Powers, tenor) in the Boston Lyric Opera's production of Jacques Offenbach's The Tales of Hoffman (Les contes d'Hoffman), through November 18 at the Shubert Theatre in Boston.
A guy comes into a bar with his dog and tells the bartender that the dog can talk. "Ask him something," the guy says. "OK," the bartender says. "What do you call the outside of a tree?" "Bark!" the dog responds. The bartender remains dubious. "Ask something else," the guy says. "OK, what's on the top of a house?" "Roof!" the dog says. The bartender isn't convinced. "Ask a harder question," the guy insists. "OK," the bartender says, "who's the greatest composer of the 20th century?" The dog responds with an enthusiastic "Orff!" The bartender is fed up and throws them out. But as they're leaving, the dog turns to the bartender and says: "You think it's Hindemith?"
Probably most music lovers wouldn't head their greatest-composer list with Carl Orff, despite the popularity of his violent, garish, sumptuously tuneful Carmina burana. The Boston Symphony Orchestra had the inspired idea of having the preeminent medieval-music specialists Ben Bagby's Sequentia precede the Orff with a group of piercing and satirical 13th-century settings of the same poems: lamenting bad luck and the pains of love, celebrating pleasure, and mocking greed and corruption. The lines about "the blowhard becoming a statesman" and "the donkey being crowned" got knowing laughs. Besides Bagby, who also accompanied several songs on the harp, the eloquent singers were Eric Mentzel, Wolodymyr Smishkewych, and Boston's Paul Guttry, William Hite, and Frank Kelley. Their subtle intimacy filled Symphony Hall.
Carmina burana means something like "Bavarian songs" — since this remarkable poetry manuscript was found in a monastery near Munich. The original melodies weren't discovered until the 1950s, and so were quite unknown to Orff, who completed his cantata in 1936, in Germany (where he remained). More bombastic and simplistic than its refined medieval counterparts, it's a kind of bloated combination of Stravinsky and Puccini, vigorous rhythms and sentimental melodies. Guest-conductor Rafael Frühbeck de Burgos recorded it in 1965 and led it at Tanglewood in 2001; he knows it well. But he emphasized its least medieval qualities — wallowing in instrumental color and pounding rhythms, choosing ponderousness and languor over fleetness and spirited orgiastic fun. It worked, but much of it sounded more like a soundtrack for a horror movie (flutist Elizabeth Rowe's pastoral duet with timpanist Timothy Genis was a delightful exception). The spirited old Herbert Kegel DG recording suggests Orff's greater musical sophistication.
German baritone Christian Gerhaher's characterful coppery timbre got increasingly harder to hear over the heavier orchestration. Glamorous, warm-toned French soprano Norah Amsellem had more success in her normal range than in her wobbly reaching for high D. William Ferguson was the high-flying tenor. The Tanglewood Festival Chorus was heroic and the PALS Children's Chorus added some uncloying sweetness. English translations were projected, but several people afterward echoed my own regret that the program book had no texts. If you looked away for a second, the words were irretrievable. I hope this isn't a new cost-cutting policy.

Well this draft is more balanced than my last ,also i think as others have said we will add much oline in free agency
Round 1-Jadaveon Clowney DE -oh how much i love this pick ,im hoping the next great combo is JPP and clowney ,we need some sacks giants football
Round 2-Gabe Jackson OG- interior lineman needed ,he has SEC experience,his size and athleticism are very intriguing,he needs to work on his physicality and aggression but these are coach-able things as size and athleticism are not
Round 3-Jonathon Brown OLB-Strengths: Brown sports a stout frame with long arms and a thick lower half. He is quick to attack the line of scrimmage, showing impressive burst to make plays in the hole and the willingness to take blockers head-on. Brown has good speed to the flanks and pursues with passion, showing the ability to track and drag down ballcarriers from behind as well as the light feet and balance to drop into coverage. He shows a physical bull rush and good determination when after the quarterback and closes with a thump when he has an open lane.
Weaknesses: One area in which he needs to improve is in protecting his legs from cut blocks.
--Rob Rang
also i think we will still have beasley as he is playing very well and beasley and brown along with clowney and JPP we are really making our defense solid again
Round 4-Ross ****rell CB DUKE-hes a 6'0 190 lb ccornerback i love cornerbacks having height,he had 5 ints last year ,his are lower this year as he only has 1 through 6 games,i think thats because people realize how good he is and arent throwing his way
Round 5-Jerome Smith Rb Syracuse-STEAL STEAL STEAL his running style.break tackles power ,uses his speed well mixed with david wilson i love that combo
Round 6-Cody Hoffman 6'4 210 lbs WR-nicks might be gone ,pretty good chance he is we will need cruz playing slot and randle isnt a number 1 receiver he will stay in the number 1 role with this guy competing because hes huge and he can play ,in his junior year he had over 100 catches 1248 yards and 11 touchdowns i love his height to go over corner backs STEAL STEAL STEAL STEAL
Round 7-Crockett Gilmore TE colorado state-6'6 255 this year he has had a 7 rec. 83 yard game and also a 5 reception 78 yard game with a touchdown also ,he has good size where he can be a receiving threat and still be the solid blocking tightend he has good potential and we have one of the best tight end coaches in the league ,I DONT LIKE HOW IVE HEARD NOTHING FROM ADRIEN ROBINSON AS HE IS 4TH TIGHTEND RIGHT NOW HIS POTENTIAL ISNT WORKING FOR HIM . Gilmore has caught 64 passes for 731 yards and 6 touchdowns but it should be noted he had switched to tight end from defensive end so potential in this guy is big

Are these 1oz. pocketknives (Victorinox Classic, Gerber LTS, etc..)really enough knife for hiking? Without getting caught up in the "what if" or "just in case" mentality do such small knives really cut the mustard out on the trail covering most if not all the basic cutting needs during trail life?Dec 22, 2012 at 11:09 pm #1937568

I can't think of any time that I've had to use a knife of any kind while hiking on a trail. Camping is different. Knives get used a lot for food preparation.
–B.G.–Dec 22, 2012 at 11:37 pm #1937572
Ugh, let me me try to be at least somewhat helpful and give you a decent response.
It really depends on your hiking and eating style. I've brought knives as tiny as a Victorinox Classic, to knives with 4 inch blade lengths. If i'm doing a simple overnighter, and know I'll be eating a mountain house or boil in bag style dinner, then a Vic Classic is more than enough, since the knife will simply be opening food packaging. When I hiked the JMT for 3 weeks, I brought along a lightweight 1.30z Opinel #7. This helped when I had to slice hard cheeses and salami, spread PB and J, etc…more food prep on an extended trip since I wasn't freeze dried boil in bag style meals everyday. For the bigger 3-4oz knives with 3-4inch blades, those come in handy when I'm bringing along a small wood stove or plan on building a fire. If it's wet, you're going to need a bigger knife to process wood and get to the dry bits. So there's no real one size fits all answer in my opinion, even though you will have guys that advocate a razor blade for every situation. I guarantee no person has ever sliced sausage or processed wood with a razor blade.Dec 22, 2012 at 11:47 pm #1937573
I've always carried a knife while hiking. That being said the scissors in my FAK were all that I ever really needed while hiking. The scissors on my SAK Classic would have been more than adequate and up to the task.
If you are into other activities such as fishing and preparing your catch for dinner a moderately sized inexpensive kitchen paring knife is all that would be needed.
Once you get into the bush-craft area where you start "harvesting" tent poles and such a 4" Mora is still quite adequate and sufficient. The weight of the Mora including its sheath is right at 3 ounces.
If you are into bush-whacking and have to clear your path you're going to need something more than a knife.
Short answer is, Yes. The two examples you mentioned are quite enough knife for hiking.

Konrad's reply has excellent insights on the whole knife discussion. My perspective as a survivalist/bushcrafter that has gone the full switch to an UL/SUL backpacker made the whole knife thing a bit more complicated. My father always taught me how important a knife is, but as most military dads I would imagine, exaggerated some, and didn't really emphasize the difference between a "safe" experience in the woods and all out war/survival situation.
I used to always take a small axe plus a folding saw with me, as I primarily relied on campfires for cooking, as well as having the heat from the fire contribute significantly to my sleep and clothing system. After getting my base weight under 20lbs, and approaching 10lbs I began to test myself. I would take only my K-bar survival knife with me rather than my axe, saw, and small pocket knife–which would actually be a big savings of weight. I was able to accomplish the same goals with the K-bar knife, i.e. make a fire to cook and help stay warm (even before/during/after light rain, though this is a pain in the neck). It was inconvenient for other things, like gutting and scaling fish, so I looked to experiment more. I then found I was able to make smaller, solo campfires that would fit most of my needs at the time with a 105g Mora knife.
I have since mostly taken either a Mora or a Swiss Army knife with me, and find that I still use them quite often at camp, and every now and then on the trail. I have never gone knife-less, I just don't feel safe, and find it far too inconvenient as Konrad so aptly pointed out. Some may attribute my uneasiness at leaving a knife behind to Machismo (I have seen this specific word used here on BPL in regards to knives that are not considered light weight), and while this may or may not be true (nor do I care either way), it evades the issue of how pragmatic in reality it is to either take no knife or take a tiny less than 1oz/28g knife. When I have gone camping with people who take no knife, they often ask to borrow my knife for whatever reason, and I can't help but wonder if those that decry taking a knife larger than 1oz/28g would do the same if they were to go camping with me in my neck of the woods.
If you have a system that allows you to have a good time, be safe, and are able to complete all your goals with a razor blade or no knife–good for you, and I mean that without any sarcasm or spite. But please allow for an open discussion of the limitations of this system, and encourage you to move past this whole "Rambo knife sux lol" type rebuttal. I think we all get it at this point that a big 1lb survivalist knife is absurd for the purposes of ultralight backpacking in general. Yet the multi-use and practical nature of my 105g Mora knife was important/pragmatic enough for me to take it with me even on the few XUL trips that I have gone on.

My pocketknife (Leatherman Micra) is for cutting lengths of paracord for hammock tent repair (god forbid I break it!), adjusting the screws on sunglasses, poking holes in things during a repair, cutting thread during a repair, adjusting the locks on my trekking poles (big use), and cutting open food. Someday I hope to acquire a basic understanding of electrical circuits so I can use my disassembled headlamp to start a fire.
Scissors are a useful first aid tool, for trimming moleskine to fit, cutting bandages, and even cutting infection away in a survival scenario. Trimming logs or cutting up a piece of clothing for a splint can make a huge difference in your ability to move towards help.
I also carry a camera; I usually wouldn't attempt camera repair on a DSLR in the field, but a screwdriver is a useful item to have when carrying a DSLR if you want to quickly check on it after a drop or something.
My hope is that my uses add to your perspective!Dec 23, 2012 at 6:52 am #1937614
+1 for the Micra. It has become my go to carry on my hiking trips.
It is also helpful in tightening the screws on the flick-locks on my trekking poles.

I am with Bradford. I have a Buck knife that is about .6 oz. I have never needed more. Its a single folding blade and nothing else. It goes thru cheese, sausage, and food packaging mostly. I have rarely used it for anything other than food prep. I never even use it for fire making. If I can't break it with my hands, its either too green to burn or too big to cut with a knife. I really think a knife is an easy place to lose a few ounces. I have never wished for moreDec 23, 2012 at 9:30 am #1937659

I started with a Boy Scout folder, and used it all the time, including on the canned food it was capable of opening.
I added an Opinel #8, and used it all the time, leaving the BSA knife as my backup/screwdriver/whittle knife and keeping the Opinel for food. (I still use the same Opinel and carry it on every single backpacking trip.)A similar version (in stainless) weighs 46 grams, for reference.
I replaced the BSA knife with a KaBar USMC knife, usually strapped to my leg on long moto-packing rides. It got used to baton wood for campfires and to discourage malcontents from messing with the kid on the Suzuki at rural gas stations or biker-burger joints on the road. It *was/is* darn-tootin macho and *should* cause nancy-boy urbanites to quiver and shake, but I never carry that boat anchor anymore.
I added a Baladeo 22g, and use it all the time, eliminating the BSA folder forever and relegating the old-reliable Opinel to the e-bag in my pack. The Baladeo is enough knife for fishing line, food bags, fish-cutting, hard jerky and salami and nail-cleaning, but isn't enough to cut wood, baton wood or whittle, none of which I do these days. It's rust-proof, has a functional pocket clip and weighs a gram more than they said it would. With a single-bevel blade it's sharp but not nearly so as the carbon Opinel, for example.
Now, I'm beginning to work with two lighter knives I found at Big 5, really to see if I can come up with something to recommend to others but that's less expensive than other options.
Both of these are $9.99 on sale, periodically. The tanto-looking version is way better in the hand.
If you look in the Philosophy forum, there's a great thread on UL knives that includes some member's killer ideas for different uses and weights, some with photos of their knives.Dec 23, 2012 at 10:46 am #1937680
Erik, those last two knives from big 5 are copies of the CRKT Ritter Mk5 and the Folts Minimalist. I can't speak for the Ritter style knife, but I'm with you and personally think that the Folts Minimalist knife with the finger grooves is single handily the most comfortable UL knife I have ever held…that thing melts into your hand. I loved mine until I lost it. It comes in 3 different blade styles ( I had the wharncliff sheepsfoot style blade).
The creator Alan Folt licensed the design to CRKT to make it budget friendly (around $20 online) but if you were to get one direct from Alan Folts, they are close to $100 and use superior steels. I just thought it was cool that you had that style knife as well, as I haven't seen it make its round on BPL yet.
I love my opinel…it's just such a classic/classy knife. Also, the edge is convexed! How many 10 dollar knives come with a razor sharp convexed edge?? I love it…even if it the wood swells up when wet. I wanted to love the baladeo knives but I can't stand chisel ground knives…it was also left hand oriented if you wanted to make a push-cut, which didn't work with me.
I think I just like knives as the end of the day, even if they are overkill for the task at hand. Sharp things make me smile :DDec 23, 2012 at 11:06 am #1937687

Without getting caught up in the "what if" or "just in case" mentality do such small knives really cut the mustard out on the trail covering most if not all the basic cutting needs during trail life?"
It IS a what-if game. Many folk here have ventured out with a single-edge razor blade or the scissors dissected from a Swiss Army knife. My personal preference is to have something more knife like and I'm quite aware of the weight involved. I daily carry a Benchmade Mini Pika that is 2oz/56g and has a 3" stainless blade. I wouldn't feel totally under-equipped to be off the pavement with it, but I usually have a Benchmade Griptilian or Mora Robust when hiking. My main concerns are shelter and firemaking; otherwise the Mini Pika or something like the Victorinox Little Vickie would take care of my needs, like food prep and repairs. The Gerber LST is fine on the chores and repairs goals. Most of the Swiss Army knives are quite adequate, although I prefer the 111mm models with locking blade and saw.
In fact, the only area I fall out from the UL canon is with essentials and you will find me with a little more knife, repair supplies, first aid kit, compass and fire making gear than most SUL gear lists. And all of it is pointed at what-if. I hike solo most of the time and feel the need to be self-reliant and have just enough stuff for improvising. I still apply UL principles, looking for high performance at light weight, multiple use, etc.
You won't find me with an 8oz multi-tool or some monster Rambo knife. IMHO, once you get past a 4"-5" blade, you need to go for some Freudian couch time :)Dec 23, 2012 at 4:14 pm #1937775

Ordered me an Opinel #6. light but with a decent size blade for food prep and light work. I don't do campfires backpacking so needing fixed blade strength wasnt a concern.
plus i think they just look nice.

This Remington fixed blade isn't UL and definitely not SUL but it does feel good in my hand and the price was right at Academy Sports. It's kind of "blade heavy" towards the front which makes me think it would be helpful preparing wood for a campfire.
I found this picture online of the same model CRKT Polkowski / Kasper fixed blade knife that I own. Again not UL or SUL but it just feels right in my hand. This knife has a neutral "feel" to the weight. It is neither blade or handle heavy and I can seen it dressing game or cleaning fish.
"Feeling right in the hand" is kind of hard to describe. My best description is to visualize the voids between your fingers when you make a loosely closed fist being filled completely by the handle scales of the knife.
The Remington has a nylon sheath and the CRKT has a hard plastic sheath that snaps around the handle scales to secure the knife in the sheath securely.
I am a much bigger fan of the hard plastic sheaths in the outdoors as dampness doesn't affect them.
Leather sheaths can be works of art and nylon sheaths can be useful but are the least desirable IMHO.

Depends entirely on how much knife you need. :)

I always carry a #1 Mora fixed blade (a little less than 4" blade). I use it at least every other trip in a substantial way, usually to get a fire going with wet wood. I also rarely carry stakes, so it's also sometimes used to sharpen a few tent stakes if I can't find an already suitable stick.
If I didn't want or need a fire, I probably wouldn't need the knife. But, if things go wrong, I'll probably need a fire.Dec 23, 2012 at 7:53 pm #1937820
