This is not a conversation about guns. This is a conversation about items that have withstood abuse that are near unbreakable.

Some items I have heard referenced as AK47 of:

Gerber MP600: It's a multi tool

Old Thinkpad Laptops

Mag lights

Toyota Hilux

Instead of a curved folding saw I prefer a rope saw. I've always been able to take down limbs and trees faster.

For those that don't know what that is, imagine a chainsaw chain with handles on either end.

Do you use one that is actual chain, or braided wire? I've used the braided wire saws, and I like how tiny/light they are, but I've never used one of the chain style saws to see if the weight/volume increase is worth it.

Mine is the chain style. I cannot compare as I have never used the braided wire and I don't have to think about weight savings that much. I don't generally hike far to a camping spot.

Rope saws are neat as fuck as well.
