7 inch blade minimum. Full teng or else. KA-BAR, stick teng?
Ka-BARs belong in the gaybar in the hands of muslims because they're in the hands of Allah. Any questions? It's fun, try it!!!!! TRY IT OUT!!! CHECK IT OUT!!! The knife goes in and out of the chest cavity. They pump their dicks? Get shit off a dead one's body by SWAT Because you're pumping the KABAR fighter into their chest, splitting ribs and perforating their heart which now looks like skirt steak instead of a pumper.

Yakut knife. The ones actually made by Yakuts can take -50° weather without getting brittle.

Thats pretty interesting, i live in australia so never really consider cold temps affecting blades. I wonder just how big a factor it really plays for jobs like skinning, could see high impact tasks maybe running the risks of breaking more easily in the cold but besides that dunno. Only traditional russian blade style i remember seeing or hearing about are the ones that look like the entirety of one side looks like a massive fuller. Basically forged in a concave manner to save on material and keeps the knives very light and thin obviously. Couldnt tell you the name of the style tho.

I see the Fairbairn-Shanghai family of knives as the most interesting, and practical combat knife. The Gerber mkII would be perfect if it didn't have that damn seration on the waist, and flat grinding instead of concave.
